Responsibilities

Company

I am looking for a Cyber Security Analyst (Generalist) to support and continuously enhance our Cyber Security Operations within a complex hybrid environment. This position is hands-on and technically involved, responsible for day-to-day monitoring, incident response, threat detection, and process improvement, while also serving as a senior technical escalation point within the Security Operations function. This role is ideal for a self-starter with broad cloud security experience, a robust understanding of traditional on-prem infrastructure, and a demonstrated ability to build resilient and scalable security practices. You can expect a pay rate of $75–80 per hour, with a target salary of $145K once you are a direct hire. The position is in Monrovia, CA, and will require you to work onsite five days a week during normal business hours. The role is initially a 6-month contract, with the potential for permanent employment thereafter. Benefits include a 401(k), dental insurance, health insurance, a referral program, and vision insurance.
