  • Write actionable intelligence reports and briefings for technical teams and executive leadership.

  • Build SOAR automation for triage, alert enrichment, vulnerability management and threat response.

What it asks for

  • Four or more years working in security engineering, threat intelligence or security automation.
  • Strong proficiency in at least one scripting or programming language for automation, such as Python.
  • Deep understanding of the kill chain, threat actor TTPs, attack vectors, networking protocols and OS internals.
