  • Continuous monitoring of network traffic, logs, and endpoints using SIEM, EDR, and threat‑intel platforms.
  • Conducting incident investigations, root‑cause analysis, and post‑incident remediation.
  • Developing and refining security playbooks, runbooks, and automated response scripts.
  • Collaborating with engineering, DevOps, and product teams to integrate security controls into every phase of the development lifecycle.
  • Keeping abreast of emerging threats, zero‑day vulnerabilities, and industry best practices.

Requirements

Education & Experience

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Security, or related field.
  • 5+ years of hands‑on security operations experience in a corporate environment.
  • Proven track record in incident response, threat hunting, or SOC leadership.

Technical Skills

  • Expertise with SIEM (Splunk, QRadar, ArcSight) and EDR (CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, Carbon Black).
  • Strong knowledge of network protocols, firewalls, IDS/IPS, and endpoint hardening.
  • Hands‑on scripting in Python, PowerShell, or Bash for automation and tool integration.
  • Familiarity with cloud security architectures (AWS, Azure, GCP) and IAM best practices.
  • Certifications such as CISSP, CISM, CEH, or GCIH are highly desirable.

Soft Skills

  • Exceptional analytical and problem‑solving abilities.
  • Clear, concise communication—both written and verbal—across technical and non‑technical audiences.
  • Adaptability in a fast‑moving, high‑pressure environment.

Benefits

We believe in rewarding talent with more than just a paycheck. Enjoy:

  • Competitive salary range: $80,000 – $110,000 USD per year, commensurate with experience.
  • Fully remote work model—no commute, flexible hours, and a 5‑day workweek.
  • Health, dental, and vision insurance, plus a generous employer match on 401(k).
  • Unlimited paid time off (PTO) and paid parental leave.
