  • Proven experience (4+ years) in Cybersecurity, with a solid understanding of DLP, SIEM/EDR platforms, and endpoint security.
  • Strong analytical skills to evaluate complex log data sources and identify anomalous behaviors.
  • Excellent communication skills for conducting professional security interviews and documenting auditable logic trails.
  • Ability to deliver results in a 24/7 rotational shift environment.

  • Relevant certifications such as CompTIA Security+, CEH, or GIAC (GSEC).
  • Experience in SaaS or global enterprise software environments.
