  • Assist with threat hunting and security investigations using data from SIEM and other security tools.

  • Support vulnerability management workflows by assisting with triage, prioritization, and tracking of remediation activities.

  • Own and manage the security operations queue while serving as a central intake point for security questions, alerts, and reports across the organization, ensuring items are triaged, prioritized, and driven through investigation or resolution.

  • Operate the organization’s phishing simulation program to reduce susceptibility to social engineering threats, including managing phishing campaigns and coordinating targeted remediation training for users with repeated failures.

  • Identify opportunities to improve security operations through process improvements, automation, and responsible use of AI to streamline investigation, triage, and reporting workflows.

  • Maintain documentation for incident response procedures, investigation workflows, and operational playbooks.

  • Participate in the security team’s on-call rotation to support investigation and response activities when needed.

Qualifications
  • 3+ years of experience in security operations, incident response, threat detection, or a related cybersecurity role.

  • Experience investigating security alerts or suspicious activity across environments such as endpoint, identity, cloud, or SaaS systems.

  • Experience triaging and managing security investigation workflows, including ticket queues or incident tracking systems.

  • Familiarity with SIEM platforms, log analysis, and security monitoring tools.

  • Understanding of common attacker techniques and frameworks such as MITRE ATT&CK.

  • Experience working with security tools such as EDR platforms, identity systems, cloud logging platforms, or similar technologies.

  • Familiarity with modern AI-enabled tools used in enterprise environments and an understanding of risks associated.

  • Experience improving security operations through automation, scripting, or responsible use of AI to increase operational efficiency.

  • Strong analytical and investigative skills with the ability to evaluate security events and determine potential impact.

  • Ability to coordinate investigations across multiple teams and communicate findings clearly to technical and non-technical stakeholders.

  • Strong written documentation skills for incident records, investigation notes, and operational procedures.

  • Relevant security certifications such as Security+, CySA+, SSCP, GSEC, or GCIH are a plus.
