Job Summary
We are looking for a Sr. SOC Engineer with 3-5 years of experience to serve as the senior resource for our threat detection ecosystem. You will be responsible for the end-to-end lifecycle of our security operations infrastructure, from engineering high-fidelity correlation rules in the SIEM to orchestrating automated response playbooks in SOAR. Your goal is to move the SOC beyond reactive alerting by building a proactive, intelligence-driven defense posture that can identify and neutralize sophisticated adversaries in real-time.
Key Responsibilities & Business Impact
1. Detection Engineering & Framework Alignment
Correlation Logic: Design, build, and maintain advanced detection rules within the SIEM/XDR setting that correlate disparate data sources (Identity, Network, Cloud, and Endpoint).
MITRE Integration: Map all detection capabilities to the MITRE ATT&CK; Framework to identify visibility gaps and ensure comprehensive coverage against modern TTPs (Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures).
Logic Tuning:



Conduct continuous "noise reduction" by fine-tuning alerting logic and suppression lists to maximize the signal-to-noise ratio for frontline analysts.
2. Security Orchestration & Lifecycle Management
SOAR Architecting: Develop and maintain automated response playbooks (SOAR) to standardize incident handling, from automated enrichment and evidence collection to one-click containment.
Tooling Ecosystem: Manage the health and integration of the SOC tech stack, ensuring seamless data ingestion from cloud providers (AWS/Azure/GCP) and SaaS applications into central monitoring hubs.
Continuous Improvement: Regularly audit log sources for "telemetry health," ensuring that critical security logs are being ingested correctly and meet compliance retention requirements.
3. Advanced Hunting & Incident Leadership
Proactive Hunting: Lead hypothesis-based threat hunting engagements, utilizing EDR and SIEM data to find "silent" lateral movement or credential harvesting
