This role will be critical in maintaining our existing systems while expanding into cybersecurity monitoring, incident response, and threat management. The ideal candidate will have experience with systems administration and a growing interest in cybersecurity operations.




Core Responsibilities:

  • Security Incident Triage: Assist in the triage of security alerts from monitoring systems, escalating incidents as needed to higher SOC tiers.
  • Log Management: Set up and manage log collection and ensure all logs are fed into the SIEM system for analysis.
  • Patch and Vulnerability Management: Perform regular patching of systems and collaborate with security teams to address vulnerability reports.
  • Cybersecurity Best Practices: Ensure adherence to security protocols such as multi-factor authentication (MFA), least-privilege access, and conditional access policies.
  • Scripting and Automation: Develop scripts using PowerShell or Python to automate routine tasks and enhance monitoring and alerting processes.




Key Responsibilities:

  • SOC Readiness: Assist in the configuration of SIEM (Security Information and Event Management) systems and ensure the collection of relevant security data from all key infrastructure components.
  • System and Network Monitoring: Monitor systems for potential security threats, using tools such as firewalls, endpoint detection, and threat intelligence platforms.
  • Incident Response: Act as the first responder for potential security incidents, conducting initial analysis and escalating issues to Tier 2/3 analysts if necessary.
  • Endpoint and Network Security: Ensure that security patches and updates are consistently applied across all endpoints and network devices.
  • Backups and Disaster Recovery: Oversee regular backups of critical systems and ensure the restorability of data in case of a breach or incident.
  • Security Compliance: Support the maintenance of cybersecurity frameworks like NIST 800, CIS Top 20, and other relevant industry standards.
  • Security Reporting: Assist in generating security reports and metrics for management, ensuring continuous improvement of SOC operations.




Minimum Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities:

  • Systems Administration: Proven experience with Windows Server, Active Directory, and virtualization platforms.
  • Security Knowledge: Basic understanding of cybersecurity principles, including network security, threat detection, and incident response.
  • Scripting Skills: Experience with PowerShell, Python, or other scripting languages for automating administrative tasks.
  • Collaboration Skills: Strong ability to work cross-functionally with IT and security teams to improve infrastructure security.
  • Monitoring Tools: Familiarity with SIEM platforms, firewall logs, and network traffic monitoring.
  • Team Player: Willingness to grow within the SOC environment, learning from higher-tier analysts and expanding security knowledge.




Desired Qualifications:

  • Experience: 2+ years of experience supporting systems administration in a production environment.
  • Cybersecurity Certifications: Interest in, or existing certifications such as CompTIA Security+, CCNA Cyber Ops, or similar.
  • Cloud Security Knowledge: Familiarity with Azure or AWS and their security services is a plus.
  • Virtualization Knowledge: Experience working with VMware and knowledge of securing virtual environments.




Working Environment:

  • Team-based Environment: You’ll work alongside both systems administrators and SOC analysts to support critical systems and security operations.

Opportunity for Growth:

  • This role offers opportunities for advancement within both systems administration and cybersecurity as Encore continues to evolve its SOC capabilities.
