This is not a traditional SOC role. You’ll work across a range of customer environments, helping design, build, and improve Security Operations capabilities – from SIEM and SOAR implementations through to automation, detection engineering, and cloud security assessments.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Delivering security engineering projects across SIEM, SOAR, and XDR platforms
• Designing and building automation playbooks and integrations

• Working closely with internal engineering teams to improve tooling and processes
• Acting as a trusted technical advisor to customers

Essential

• Experience working in a SOC or CDOC (Cyber Defence Operations Centre) environment
• Strong understanding of security monitoring & incident response and threat behaviours (e.g. MITRE ATT&CK)
• Hands‑on experience with at least one SIEM / SOAR / XDR platform
• Ability to take a problem and engineer a solution end-to-end
• Strong communication skills and ability to engage with stakeholders

Ideal (but not essential)

• Experience with cloud security (Azure)
• Exposure to automation or scripting (e.g. Python, APIs)
• Experience in advisory, design, or project‑based work

For Military Candidates

• Experience at commissioned / supervisory level OR
• Exposure to advisory or capability development work
• Align well if you have worked in a SOC, CDOC or cyber operations environment
• Experience analysing threats, logs, or incidents
• Exposure to secure networks or defence systems
• A mindset focused on problem‑solving, adaptability, and ownership
