Job Description

Roles & Responsibilities

  • Lead and coordinate Incident Response (IR) activities from detection through containment, eradication, and recovery—ensuring zero-delay execution and clear communication across technical and executive stakeholders

  • Architect, tune, and manage enterprise-wide SIEM solutions (Splunk, QRadar, Sentinel, Chronicle, or similar) to optimize detection coverage, reduce false positives, and enable real-time threat visibility

  • Drive Cyber Resilience initiatives: design and test business continuity plans, conduct tabletop exercises, and validate organizational readiness against ransomware, supply chain attacks, and APT campaigns

  • Establish and enforce streamlined workflows for alert triage, escalation, and remediation—eliminating bottlenecks and ensuring SLA adherence during critical incidents

  • Handle unexpected security events with composure, rapidly assessing impact, mobilizing resources, and adapting tactics in dynamic threat landscapes

  • Develop and maintain threat detection use cases, correlation rules, and automated response playbooks

  • Produce post-incident reports with actionable intelligence and root cause analysis to continuously improve security posture

  • Facilitate tabletop exercises and crisis simulations to stress-test organizational response capabilities and identify coordination gaps before real incidents occur

  • Coordinate crisis communications during active incidents, translating technical developments into clear briefings for legal, PR, and executive leadership

  • Conduct proactive threat hunting operations beyond automated alerts to identify latent adversaries and advanced persistent threats

  • Map security controls and detection capabilities to DESC ISR and MITRE ATT&CK framework, identifying coverage gaps and prioritizing defensive improvements

Desired Candidate Profile

  • 4+ years in information security with demonstrated hands-on incident response and digital forensics experience

  • Deep expertise with enterprise SIEM platforms (Splunk ES, Microsoft Sentinel, IBM QRadar, Chronicle SIEM, or Elastic Security)—including log source onboarding, parsing, and advanced correlation logic

  • Proven track record of coordinating security workflows across SOC, IT, legal, and executive teams with precision timing and accountability

  • Experience building and testing cyber resilience frameworks: disaster recovery, backup integrity validation, and crisis communication protocols

  • Ability to operate decisively during high-pressure, ambiguous situations with limited initial information

  • Hands-on purple teaming or attack simulation experience—ability to think like an adversary to strengthen defensive controls and detection logic

  • Practical knowledge of supply chain security risks and third-party vendor assessment methodologies

  • Experience with chaos engineering or failure injection testing to validate system recovery and organizational response under simulated duress.


Preferred Certifications & Skills

  • Splunk Core Certified Power User or Splunk Enterprise Security Certified Admin

  • Microsoft Certified: Security Operations Analyst Associate

  • EC-Council Certified Incident Handler (ECIH) or Certified SOC Analyst (CSA)

  • GIAC Certified Intrusion Analyst (GCIA)

  • Certified Threat Intelligence Analyst (CTIA) or GIAC Cyber Threat Intelligence (GCTI)

  • Familiarity with SOAR platforms (Splunk SOAR, Palo Alto XSOAR, Chronicle SOAR) for workflow automation

  • Experience with threat intelligence platforms (MISP, ThreatConnect, Mandiant Advantage, Recorded Future)

  • Purple teaming tools (Atomic Red Team, Caldera, Prelude Operator) for adversary emulation

  • Supply chain security frameworks (SLSA, SSDF, or vendor risk management platforms)

  • Scripting abilities (Python, PowerShell, KQL, SPL) for automation, custom detection logic, and threat hunting

  • Understanding of cloud security (AWS GuardDuty, Azure Sentinel, GCP Security Command Center) and hybrid architectures

  • Knowledge of regulatory resilience requirements (DESC ISR, ISO 27001)
