THE OPPORTUNITY

The Security Analyst plays a key role in protecting our organization by detecting, investigating, and responding to security incidents across our environment.

  • Collaborate closely with IT, Security Engineering, and MSSP partners to escalate and resolve complex incidents.
  • Document investigation steps, outcomes, and lessons learned for future reference and process improvement.

Alerting & Threat Detection

  • Utilize security tools such as SIEM, DLP, EDR, and DSPM platforms to validate alerts, uncover misconfigurations, and identify potential threats.
  • Tune detection rules and contribute to continuous improvement of alert quality, reducing false positives.
  • Monitor threat intelligence feeds to identify new vulnerabilities and recommend practical mitigation strategies.
  • Partner with engineering teams to enhance visibility and strengthen detection coverage across systems and environments.

Improve How We Work

  • Draft, maintain, and refine SOPs and runbooks for recurring alerts and incident types.
  • Help define alert severity levels, SLAs, and escalation paths; identify opportunities for automation and workflow optimization.
  • Build lightweight dashboards and KPIs (e.g., alert volume, false positive rate, SLA attainment) to provide actionable insights to leadership.
Requirements

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS:

  • 2–4 years of experience in security operations, incident response, or threat detection.
  • Familiarity with SIEM, EDR, and related security tools (e.g., Splunk, Sentinel, CrowdStrike, etc.).

  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with attention to detail and documentation.
  • Excellent communication and teamwork skills.
