Serve as a key responder during security incidents, following established procedures for containment, eradication, and recovery. Conduct analysis to determine the root cause of incidents and provide recommendations to prevent recurrence. Document all phases of the incident response lifecycle.
  • Vendor Risk Management : Conduct vendor security risk reviews for new and existing third-party services, evaluating their security posture and compliance.
  • Vulnerability Management : Perform regular vulnerability scans of corporate systems and infrastructure. Analyze scan results, prioritize vulnerabilities based on risk, and work with IT teams to ensure timely remediation.

  • Hands-on work with security tools such as SIEM platforms (e.g., Datadog, Splunk), EDR solutions (e.g., CrowdStrike), and vulnerability scanners (e.g., Nessus).
  • Incident response experience, including investigating, containing, and remediating security incidents.
  • Technical Skills :

  • Familiarity with supporting Windows, macOS, and Ubuntu endpoints.
  • Understanding of APIs and their security implications, particularly for vendor security assessments.
  • Strong grasp of networking fundamentals (TCP / IP, firewalls, proxies, SD-WANs, SSH) and the ability to interpret logs and system telemetry.
  • Ability to analyze logs from EDR tools, cloud consoles, and email headers to identify indicators of compromise or policy violations.
  • Knowledge of cloud security principles and common platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP).
  • Experience with scripting languages (e.g., Python, Bash, PowerShell) is a plus.
  • Soft Skills :

  • Excellent problem-solving and analytical skills.
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to explain technical issues to non-technical stakeholders.
  • Self-starter who can manage multiple priorities independently.
  • Benefits
