Job Description

Job Summary

Responsible for proactively identifying, investigating, and mitigating advanced cyber threats that evade traditional, alert driven security controls. The role focuses on hypothesis-driven and intelligence-led threat hunting across endpoint, network, identity, and cloud environments to reduce dwell time and enhance detection maturity.

Key Responsibilities

Conduct hypothesis-based and IOC-driven threat hunting across: o Endpoint (EDR/XDR) o SIEM / Log Management platforms o Network telemetry (NDR) o Identity logs (AD / Entra ID) o Cloud platforms (Azure, AWS, M365) • Identify stealthy and advanced threats, including: o Living off the Land (LotL) techniques o Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs) o Lateral movement and privilege escalation o Insider threat indicators • Develop and execute MITRE ATT&CK;–aligned hunting hypotheses • Convert hunting findings into: o Security incidents o New detection rules (SIEM / EDR / XDR) o Change or service requests (misconfigurations, logging gaps) • Collaborate with SOC, Incident Response, and Threat Intelligence teams • Produce hunting reports and KPIs (dwell time reduction, hunts to detections, incidents generated)

Skill Requirements

Technical Skills • Strong expertise in SIEM/SOAR platforms (Splunk, Microsoft Sentinel, Chronicle, Palo Alto XSIAM) • Hands-on experience with EDR/XDR tools (Microsoft XDR, CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, Palo Alto Cortex) • Proficiency in KQL / SPL / advanced hunting queries • Deep understanding of MITRE ATT&CK; techniques and TTPs • Strong OS knowledge: Windows, Linux, macOS • Basic scripting skills (PowerShell / Python preferred) • Cloud security exposure (Azure, AWS, M365 Defender) Experience & Soft Skills • 6+ years in SOC / Threat Detection, with 2+ years in threat hunting • Strong analytical and investigative mindset • Client facing reporting and presentation skills • Willingness to work in 24×7 SOC environments
