Job Description
Summary: Expedia Group is a leading company in global travel technology, dedicated to enhancing travel experiences. The Security Analyst I role involves monitoring and responding to security incidents, analyzing security data, and collaborating with technical teams to improve security posture.
Responsibilities:
- Monitor, triage, and respond to security alerts and incidents across Expedia Group environments, escalating or containing threats in alignment with documented runbooks and playbooks
- Analyze security event data, logs, and vulnerability findings to identify patterns, validate true positives, and recommend remediation actions that reduce risk to services and data
- Execute defined security operations processes such as access reviews, endpoint protection checks, and vulnerability follow-up to improve the overall security posture
- Collaborate with cross-functional technical teams to document security issues, track remediation progress, and communicate clear, concise incident summaries and status updates
- Apply foundational knowledge of system design, APIs, and data models to understand how applications and services should behave, and to detect or investigate anomalous behavior
- Safely integrate and operate AI/ML‑enabled solutions that improve outcomes, including familiarity with AI-driven systems, tools, or workflows and applying AI/ML concepts to real world products
Required Qualifications:
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Security, Information Systems, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience
- Experience (which may include internships, coursework, or projects) working with security concepts such as incident response, vulnerability management, or security monitoring in technical environments
- Foundational understanding of how web applications, APIs, operating systems, and data stores are designed and secured, including basic system design (LLD), API design, and data modeling concepts
- Hands-on exposure to security or infrastructure tools such as SIEM, endpoint protection, IDS/IPS, cloud security controls, or log analysis platforms
- Familiarity with AI-driven systems, tools, or workflows and applying AI/ML concepts to real world products within security or technology operations
Preferred Qualifications:
- Experience assisting with end‑to‑end incident handling activities, including detection, investigation, documentation, and support for remediation in collaboration with engineering or operations teams
- Practical experience analyzing security logs and telemetry at scale (for example, across multiple services or environments) to distinguish normal from suspicious behavior and to prioritize true risks
- Exposure to securing or reviewing low-level system and API designs, including understanding common authentication/authorization patterns, data flows, and basic threat modeling for services
- Demonstrated use of data and metrics (such as incident trends, false positive rates, or vulnerability closure timelines) to inform recommendations that improve security operations or engineering practices
- Experience using or tuning AI/ML‑enabled security tools (such as automated threat detection, anomaly detection, or AI-assisted triage) and applying AI techniques to enhance incident response quality and speed
Required Skills: Incident Response, Vulnerability Management, Security Monitoring, Web Application Security, API Security, Operating Systems Security, Data Store Security, System Design, API Design, Data Modeling, SIEM, Endpoint Protection, IDS/IPS, Cloud Security Controls, Log Analysis, AI-driven Security Systems, AI/ML Concepts
