Who We Are
If you feel like Incident Response and Recovery hasn't changed in the past 10 years, you're not alone. Business operations aren't just on endpoints anymore. It's behind applications in Okta tiles, auto-scaling workloads, code repos, and sprawling data stores across one or many public clouds. At MOXFIVE, we're focused on eradicating adversaries across our client's entire digital footprint, and that demands a faster, nimbler approach to DFIR, one where AI-driven tooling helps our consultants investigate faster without cutting corners on rigor.

We're looking to expand our IR Consulting Team with individuals driven to protect clients, eliminate threat actors, and build the next era of digital forensics and incident response for the modern enterprise, including the LLM-based investigative platform we're building to get them there.

Who You Are
You know that $I30 isn't referring to your local interstate, and that the easiest way to get on your bad side is to be handed a timestamp that isn't in UTC. You've got a "Tools" folder sitting on your workstation somewhere with your favorite forensic scripts at the ready to tear into the next piece of suspicious activity you see. And speaking of suspicious activity, you've honed a keen sense for knowing the difference between legitimate users and threat actor activity because you've seen them in action. Hundreds of times.

Windows environment investigations feel like the back of your hand at this point, and you've been starting to expand your knowledge on cloud-native forensics. Account takeovers are the new malware after all, and investigating the latest threats across Azure, GCP, AWS, and SaaS Apps is the growing frontier you've been looking to sink your teeth into. You know your way around CloudTrail and GuardDuty findings in AWS, Admin Activity and Data Access logs in GCP, and sign-in and audit logs in Entra ID, and you're just as comfortable chasing a rogue service principal or a suspicious Workload Identity Federation grant as you are pulling apart a $MFT.

You've also got an eye toward where the work is heading. You're not afraid to put LLMs and AI tooling to work as part of the investigative process, whether that's rapidly triaging thousands of authentication logs for anomalous patterns, building timeline narratives faster without sacrificing accuracy, or using AI-assisted tooling to spot the needle in a haystack of cloud audit logs. You know these tools augment a sharp analyst, they don't replace one, and you hold the output to the same evidentiary standard you'd hold your own analysis to. And you don't just want to be a consumer of that tooling. You want a hand in building it, translating what you know about how a real investigation actually unfolds into the logic, prompts, and guardrails of an LLM-based investigative platform that can eventually help the next analyst move faster than you did.

You're insatiably curious, addicted to threat intel, and a builder at heart. Ultimately, you're looking for the right opportunity that uses your technical chops to find and eliminate meaningful adversaries while putting your stamp on a better approach to traditional DFIR consulting.
