Associate Cyber Engineer

Associate Cyber Engineer Job Locations US-Remote Our Mission Our mission is to SAVE AND IMPROVE LIVES BY EMPOWERING HEALTHCARE CONSUMERS. Come be part of remarkable. Overview How you can make a difference HealthEquity protects the financial and health information of millions of members. Our Security Operations team works around the clock to detect, investigate, and contain threats to that data. As an Agentic SOC Cyber Engineer, you are the primary technical owner of our overnight security operations. You will run, tune, and improve the AI agents and automation that handle first-line triage, enrichment, and investigation. You will also step in as the human decision-maker when an incident needs judgment, escalation, or containment. Your work shortens detection and response times, reduces analyst fatigue, and keeps the 24/7 team consistent across all three shifts. Because you will often be the senior technical voice on shift, your decisions directly affect how quickly and safely HealthEquity responds to incidents.
