PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTABILITIES:

- Conduct proactive threat hunting across on-prem and cloud environments using SIEM, EDR, and threat intelligence tools.
- Analyze logs, security telemetry, and packet captures across Windows, Linux, and network infrastructure.
- 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.
EDUCATION, EXPERIENCE & SKILLS:
- 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.
