• In-depth analysis of network traffic, logs, and system events to identify potential security threats and vulnerabilities.
• Provide Incident Response support.
• Maintain, improve, and develop team knowledge of SOC tools, security operations, and triage.
• Prepare reports for managed clients for both technical and non-technical audiences and continuously improve their content and presentation.

What you’ll bring:

• Experience in a Security Operations Centre.
• Demonstrable experience of managing Microsoft Sentinel and Splunk implementations.
• Knowledge and experience with the Mitre Att&ck Framework.
• Solid grasp of client-server applications, multi-tier web applications, relational databases, firewalls, VPNs, and enterprise AntiVirus products.
