Who We Are

If you feel like Incident Response and Recovery hasn’t changed in the past 10 years, you’re not alone. Business operations aren’t just on endpoints anymore. It’s behind applications in Okta tiles, auto-scaling workloads, code repos, and sprawling data stores across one or many public clouds. At MOXFIVE, we’re focused on eradicating adversaries across our client’s entire digital footprint, and that demands a faster, nimbler approach to DFIR.

We’re looking to expand our IR Consulting Team with individuals driven to protect clients, eliminate threat actors, and build the next era of digital forensics and incident response for the modern enterprise.

Who You Are

You know that $I30 isn’t referring to your local interstate, and that the easiest way to get on your bad side is to be handed a timestamp that isn’t in UTC. You’ve got a “Tools” folder sitting on your workstation somewhere with your favorite forensic scripts at the ready to tear into the next piece of suspicious activity you see. And speaking of suspicious activity, you’ve honed a keen sense for knowing the difference between legitimate users and threat actor activity because you’ve seen them in action.
Hundreds of times.

Windows environment investigations feel like the back of your hand at this point, and you’ve been starting to expand your knowledge on cloud-native forensics. Account takeovers are the new malware after all, and investigating the latest threats across Azure, GCP, AWS, and SaaS Apps is the growing frontier you’ve been looking to sink your teeth into.

Client conversations don’t scare you. You understand what it looks like to support a client team that’s going through their worst professional days with confidence and empathy.

You’re insatiably curious, addicted to threat intel, and a builder at heart. Ultimately, you’re looking for the right opportunity that uses your technical chops to find and eliminate meaningful adversaries while putting your stamp on a better approach to traditional DFIR consulting.

Why You Matter

You’ll be joining a seasoned team of high performing incident response consultants that are the tip of the spear for all forensic activity at MOXFIVE. From ransomware to nation-state threats, you’ll be supporting and leading meaningful cases across traditional enterprise and cloud-native environments. We’re a startup in the truest sense, and your voice has significant weight in shaping our technology stack, investigative methodology, and service offerings as we continue to scale.

What You'll Bring
  • Experience responding to threat activity as an IR consultant or SOC analyst
  • Strong understanding of Windows/Mac/Linux fundamentals, forensic artifacts, and network analysis
  • Existing knowledge or passion to learn cloud-native investigations across AWS, GCP, and Azure
  • An unwavering emphasis on investigation at the highest level of quality
  • Perspective and voice to continue to shape our practice

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
