About the Role

Our client is building a world-class defense against an increasingly sophisticated threat landscape, and we are looking for a sharp, proactive SOC L2 Analyst to join the Information Security team. You will serve as a critical escalation point for our security operations, bridging the gap between automated detection and incident resolution. If you thrive in high-stakes environments and are passionate about threat hunting and incident hardening, this is your opportunity to directly influence the security posture of their fintech ecosystem.

What You Will Do

• Elevated Monitoring: Maintain deep visibility into our infrastructure by actively monitoring security alerts across SIEM, IDS/IPS, firewalls, and EDR platforms.
• Deep-Dive Triage & Analysis: Conduct detailed investigations of complex security events, analyzing network traffic and system logs to identify malicious patterns and vulnerabilities that bypass automated rules.
• Incident Ownership: Lead the response and containment of security incidents, coordinating cross-functional efforts and ensuring timely, effective resolution during critical events.
• Advanced Documentation: Maintain meticulous records of security investigations, contributing to high-level incident reporting and maintaining our internal knowledge base.
• Continuous Hardening: Drive operational improvement by leading post-incident reviews, identifying gaps in our defenses, and refining SOC procedures and automation playbooks.

What You Bring

• Experience: 5+ years of hands-on experience in security operations, incident response, or advanced threat monitoring.
• Security Stack: Proven proficiency with industry-standard SIEM tools (e.g., Splunk, Microsoft Sentinel, QRadar, ELK) and familiarity with EDR, IDS/IPS, and perimeter security solutions.
• Technical Acumen: Strong working knowledge of cybersecurity principles, threat vectors, network protocols, and application-layer attacks.
• Cloud Proficiency: Practical experience securing cloud-native environments, with a preference for AWS and Azure.
• Methodology: Strong grasp of security frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK and the Cyber Kill Chain to guide threat hunting activities.
• Analytical Rigor: A demonstrated track record of successful security investigations and proactive threat hunting.
• Communication: Exceptional attention to detail and the ability to articulate complex technical findings to both engineering teams and non-technical stakeholders.
• Bonus Qualifications: A Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, or a related field, and familiarity with compliance frameworks (ISO27001, ISO27701, PCI DSS, GDPR).

What's in It for You

• True Ownership: You will have the autonomy to influence our security roadmap and make architectural decisions that protect our production environments.
• Impactful Work: Your work directly safeguards real-money flows and critical financial data, making a tangible difference in the security of our users.
