A Detection Engineer builds the rules that tell a SOC when an attacker is inside. The role straddles software engineering and threat intelligence. You read a new technique, decide what observable data would catch it, write a detection against your SIEM or EDR query language, test it against historical data, tune the false positives, and ship it with a runbook. The discipline is what distinguishes detection engineering from 'writing rules.' Every rule has a hypothesis, a test, a measurable outcome, and a maintenance story. Engineers who thrive here like infrastructure code and treat detections the same way.
