What You Bring Experience: 3 - 5 years in security operations, SOC, or a related role with demonstrated hands-on response experience. Technical Skills: Familiarity with SIEM, endpoint protection, vulnerability scanning, and log analysis tools. Threat Knowledge: Understanding of common attack methods (MITRE ATT&CK, phishing, malware, insider threats). Hands-On Focus: Ability to triage alerts, investigate incidents, and apply technical fixes. Education: Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Security, or related field (or equivalent practical experience). Key Attributes for Success Proactivity: Goes beyond reactive incident response to help improve processes and tools.
