Hybrid$118k/yrFull-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role (maybe from description), Responsibilities, Requirements (or Qualifications), Skills? The posting includes Key Responsibilities, Required Qualifications, Preferred Qualifications, What's in it For You? (benefits), About Us (maybe not needed). We must not repeat job title. Use for section headings. Use
for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. Include only sections with real specific content. Avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". Pay and Schedule sections only if posting actually states them. Pay is given: base compensation range $118,400 - $219,800 USD. So we can include a Pay section. Schedule? Not mentioned. Benefits: we have many benefits described; we can include Benefits section. Also maybe "Hybrid Work Model" etc could be part of Benefits or separate? We'll include Benefits covering those. Also maybe "About Us" not needed as it's boilerplate? It's somewhat descriptive but could be considered About the role? The instruction: "Use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." So we can have About the role (summary), Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe combine Required and Preferred?), Qualifications? They said we can use Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We need to decide. Probably include Responsibilities, Requirements (Required Qualifications), Preferred Qualifications maybe as a subsection? But we should avoid many thin sections. Could combine Required and Preferred into Requirements section with two lists? But they said prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (including Required and Preferred), Benefits, Pay. That's five sections.
We must not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate like EEO etc. The posting includes "What’s in it For You?" which we can treat as Benefits. Also includes "About Us" maybe not needed.
We need to preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all responsibilities bullet points, all required qualifications bullet points, preferred qualifications bullet points, benefits details, pay range.
We must format as HTML fragment only, no or . Use headings,
for prose,
- for lists.
We need to ensure we don't repeat job title as heading. No markdown fences.
Let's extract content.
About the role: The first paragraph(s) before Key Responsibilities: "Thomson Reuters is strengthening its Cyber Threat Management capability to help protect the organization, its products, and its customers from evolving cyber threats. The Lead Cyber Threat Management Analyst will lead the design, development, and continuous improvement of advanced threat detection capabilities across the enterprise. You will build scalable detection logic, operationalize threat intelligence, and improve the quality, speed, and effectiveness of security monitoring and response. This is a hands-on technical leadership role for someone who enjoys understanding adversary behavior, analyzing complex security telemetry, and translating emerging threats into practical detection strategies. You will work closely with Security Operations, Threat Intelligence, Incident Response, Security Engineering, and cloud teams to identify and reduce risk across a diverse technology environment. You will help shape the maturity and strategic direction of the Threat Detection program by developing high-quality detection content, improving coverage against known adversary techniques, reducing false positives, and ensuring detections remain effective as the threat landscape and enterprise environment evolve. You will also use AI-enabled security and automation tools responsibly to accelerate threat analysis, detection engineering, documentation, and triage workflows. You will apply sound technical judgment, validate outputs, and ensure that automated recommendations are appropriately reviewed before implementation or operational use."
That's a good prose for About the role.
Responsibilities: The list under "Key Responsibilities". Each line starts with a verb. We'll put each as
- .
Required Qualifications: list under "Required Qualifications". Each bullet.
Preferred Qualifications: list under "Preferred Qualifications". Each bullet.
Benefits: from "What’s in it For You?" and subsequent paragraphs describing benefits. Need to capture all specifics: Hybrid Work Model, Flexibility & Work-Life Balance (Flex My Way), Career Development and Growth, Industry Competitive Benefits (list: flexible vacation, two company-wide Mental Health Days off, access to Headspace app, retirement savings, tuition reimbursement, employee incentive programs, resources for mental, physical, and financial wellbeing), Culture, Social Impact (two paid volunteer days off annually, pro-bono consulting projects, ESG initiatives), Making a Real-World Impact (maybe not needed), In the United States, Thomson Reuters offers a comprehensive benefits package... includes market competitive health, dental, vision, disability, life insurance, competitive 401k plan with company match, market leading work life benefits with competitive vacation, sick and safe paid time off, paid holidays (including two company mental health days off), parental leave, sabbatical leave, optional hospital, accident and sickness insurance paid 100% by employee, optional life and AD&D insurance paid 100% by employee, Flexible Spending and Health Savings Accounts, fitness reimbursement, access to Employee Assistance Program, Group Legal Identity Theft Protection benefit paid 100% by employee, access to 529 Plan, commuter benefits, Adoption & Surrogacy Assistance, Tuition Reimbursement, access to Employee Stock Purchase Plan.
We need to preserve all that detail. Could be long but okay.
Pay: base compensation range $118,400 - $219,800 USD. Also mention base pay positioned within range based on factors, may be eligible for Annual Bonus. Include that.
We should not include Schedule section.

Now craft the lists.
Responsibilities list items (as per posting):
- Architect, develop, implement, and maintain scalable threat detection logic across SIEM, EDR, cloud-native security platforms, and other enterprise security data sources.
- Design and tune detection content to identify emerging threats, suspicious activity, adversary behaviors, and indicators of compromise while minimizing false positives and alert fatigue.
- Map detections to the MITRE ATT&CK framework to assess defensive coverage, identify detection gaps, and prioritize improvements based on risk and threat relevance.
- Operationalize threat intelligence, including indicators of compromise, tactics, techniques, procedures, and vendor intelligence, into actionable detection and monitoring strategies.
- Collaborate with Threat Intelligence, Incident Response, Security Operations, and Security Engineering teams to validate detection effectiveness and improve response workflows.
