  • Enhance detection content and use cases by tuning SIEM and EDR rules aligned to frameworks such as MITRE ATT&CK.

  • Develop, test, and maintain SOAR playbooks to improve investigation efficiency and automate response actions.

  • Contribute to post-incident reviews and root cause analyses, proposing hardening and lessons learned initiatives.

  • Conduct periodic evaluations of alert fidelity, detection coverage, and SOC operational metrics.

  • Collaborate with IT, Engineering, and DevSecOps teams to validate threat findings, coordinate remediation, and improve preventative defenses.

  • Lead knowledge transfer sessions and create training material for Junior SOC analysts.

  • Assist the SOC Manager in evaluating security tools and recommending operational improvements.

  • Maintain accurate and detailed documentation in the SOC's case management system.

  • Stay current on emerging threats, adversary TTPs, and detection techniques.

About You:

  • 3–5+ years of experience in a 24x7 SOC, CSIRT, or cyber incident response role in a global enterprise.

  • Deep knowledge of SIEM, EDR and SOAR platforms and security automation tools.

  • Familiarity with threat intelligence standards (e.g., STIX/TAXII) and frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK.

  • Strong hands-on experience with forensic tools and utilities (e.g., Sysinternals, Wireshark).

  • Proficient in scripting and automation (e.g., PowerShell, Python).

  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills, especially for documentation, briefings, and reporting.

  • Critical thinking and problem-solving skills with a high attention to detail.

  • Comfortable working independently or collaboratively under pressure.

  • Preferred certifications: GCIH, GCIA, CEH, CySA+, or equivalent.

  • Willingness to work flexible hours including weekends, holidays, and on-call as needed.

Additional Requirements:

  • Open to Project based employment (initial 6 months w/ possibility of extension/absorption based on your performance)
