- Support and, where required, lead threat response workflows and playbook creation, ensuring seamless integration with CSOC operations.
- Collaborate closely with log source owners, engineering teams and stakeholders to understand telemetry, risks and operational requirements, translating them into effective detection content.
- Deliver security reporting, advisories and post-incident analysis, converting lessons learnt into measurable improvements in detection and response.
- Maintain clear documentation, including detection logic, workflows and operational playbooks, to support consistent CSOC operations.
Who you are
- An experienced cyber security professional with a strong background in SOC operations, SIEM content development, threat hunting or security engineering.
- Skilled in SIEM technologies, with hands-on experience in Elastic/ELK and working knowledge of platforms such as ArcSight, Microsoft Sentinel, Splunk or Chronicle.
