Forensic Team Lead

We are on a mission to pioneer the world’s next era of play. As we grow across Europe and Latin America, we’re building The Playstack - the technology powering the next generation of sports, gaming, and fan experiences. Join us, and help make it the most widely used platform in the world! From operations, to marketing, to product, we are looking for talented people who will shape how millions of customers play, watch, and connect every day.

At Super, we are looking for a highly experienced Forensic Team Lead with a proven track record of identifying and investigating sophisticated cyber threats in real-world environments. You will lead a specialised forensics function, operating at the core of our cloud-native infrastructure to proactively detect, investigate, and neutralise advanced adversaries — going beyond tools and predefined alerts to leverage raw data, custom analysis, and forward-thinking strategies to stay ahead of attackers.

This is an opportunity to build and lead a next-generation forensics capability, working on complex, high-impact security challenges in a fast-paced, cloud-first environment, making a tangible impact on the organisation's security posture.

What the role involves

• Lead & Build: Establish and lead the digital forensics function — building and mentoring a high-performing team of investigators and setting standards for excellence and rigour.
• Proactive Threat Hunting: Conduct advanced threat hunting activities across cloud environments to detect sophisticated attacks, including APTs and stealth intrusions.
• Retrospective Analysis: Perform deep historical investigations for newly discovered vulnerabilities, validating whether they were previously exploited and assessing potential impact.
• Data-Driven Investigations: Analyse diverse data sources such as VPC flow logs, audit trails, and system artefacts — adapting to new data formats and scenarios without relying solely on vendor tooling.
• Incident Response Leadership: Lead forensic investigations during active security incidents, transforming complex data into clear insights and actionable response plans.
• Automation & Innovation: Develop and leverage automation (e.g., Python, AI-driven tooling) to streamline forensic workflows and enhance investigative capabilities.

What we are looking for

• 5+ years in digital forensics, incident response, or threat hunting, with a demonstrated ability to uncover and investigate complex security incidents.
• Strong experience investigating security events in cloud environments, including working with audit logs, identity systems, and infrastructure telemetry.
• Proficiency in scripting or programming (e.g., Python) to build custom tools, automate analysis, and handle non-standard data formats.
• Ability to think critically and approach problems from an attacker's perspective, identifying hidden patterns and potential attack paths.
• Proven approach of treating vulnerabilities as potential incidents — conducting thorough historical analysis to confirm whether exploitation has occurred.
• Proven ability to lead teams during high-pressure situations, maintaining clarity, focus, and effective decision-making.

Nice to have

• "Assume compromise until proven otherwise" mindset, relying on evidence and verifiable insights rather than assumptions.
• Skilled in timeline reconstruction and root cause analysis.
• Calm and decisive under pressure during critical incidents.
• Ability to combine technical depth with investigative intuition.

What we offer

• Medical / Health Insurance
• Open Annual Leave
• Employee Assistance Programme
• Training & Learning Development

Additional benefits vary by country and will be shared during the hiring process.
