Detection engineering: Design, implement, and tune high-fidelity detections across SIEM and XDR platforms, translating threat intelligence into actionable coverage.
AI, automation and orchestration: Develop automated incident response playbooks and integrate AI to reduce manual operational load and improve response efficiency.
Telemetry and gap analysis: Evaluate existing monitoring coverage, identify gaps, and engineer new security controls and capabilities to close them.
CTI collaboration: Work alongside cyber threat intelligence analysts to operationalise intelligence into new or updated detections.
SOC support: Provide overflow support during high-volume periods, including alert triage, initial investigation, and escalation assistance across a follow-the-sun model.
Threat hunting and simulation: Participate in adversary simulation exercises, threat hunts, vulnerability reviews, and enrichment tasks as part of a well-rounded security function.

Solid experience: 5+ years across SOC, detection engineering, incident response, CTI, or a blend of these disciplines.
Detection and automation expertise: 3+ years designing custom detections and security automation, with strong hands-on SIEM, XDR, and EDR platform knowledge.
Query language proficiency: Confident working in at least one query language such as KQL, Splunk SPL, or SQL.
Threat intelligence acumen: Working knowledge of threat actor tactics and the ability to translate CTI into practical detection logic.
Cloud and identity familiarity: Exposure to major identity and cloud platforms including Entra ID, Okta, CyberArk, Azure, AWS, OCI, and GCP.
Adaptability under pressure: Equally comfortable diving deep on an engineering challenge as switching to investigative work in a fast-paced, large-scale global environment.
