- Vulnerability Management: Reducing the attack surface through continuous asset discovery, risk-based scanning, and coordinated remediation of security flaws.

- Incident Response: Minimizing business impact by maintaining rapid forensic investigation, containment, and recovery capabilities.

- Offensive Security:



Validating defense effectiveness by simulating real-world attacks through rigorous penetration testing and red-teaming exercises.

- Threat Intelligence: Driving proactive defense by analyzing global threat trends and OSINT to anticipate and neutralize targeted attack campaigns.

- Insider Threat Management: Detecting and preventing internal risks through behavioral analytics and strategic data loss prevention protocols.

About You

- Experience: 5–7+ years of combined IT and security experience in Security Operations in a lead capacity.

- Technical Expertise:

- Deep understanding of threat detection, vulnerability management, incident response, and enterprise security controls.

- Automation: Proven ability to write scripts (Python, PowerShell, Bash) and automate security workflows to improve efficiency.

- Security Stack: Familiarity with SIEM, EDR, NDR, WAF, and DLP technologies.

- Infrastructure: Familiarity with modern infrastructure (cloud platforms, containerization, CI/CD pipelines).

- Soft Skills: Excellent communication skills - able to manage and mentor team members across varying shifts and convey complex concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

- Education: Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or related field preferred (or equivalent experience).
