Job description

from Micron careers

Our vision is to transform how the world uses information to enrich life for all.

Micron Technology is a world leader in innovating memory and storage solutions that accelerate the transformation of information into intelligence, inspiring the world to learn, communicate and advance faster than ever.

We are seeking a Security Technologist and AI Transformation Leader to modernize and transform enterprise security programs through the application of artificial intelligence, automation, and AI agents.

This role is responsible for re‑architecting Physical Security, SOC/GSOC Operations, Threat Intelligence, and Insider Risk programs to reduce manual workload, improve risk identification, and enable faster, more accurate security decision‑making. The ideal candidate combines strong security technology fundamentals with deep understanding of AI‑enabled operational transformation.

This position is not dedicated to tool maintenance or incremental improvement; it is chartered to fundamentally redesign how security work is performed.

Responsibilities:

  • Security Transformation Driven by Technology - Build and complete a multi‑year roadmap to transform Physical Security, SOC/GSOC Operations, Threat Intelligence, and Insider Risk programs into technology‑enhanced, intelligence‑led capabilities. Redesign security operations around AI agents and automation, shifting from reactive, manual processes to scalable, machine‑assisted workflows.
