This is a hands-on engineering position focused heavily on SIEM, detection engineering, security automation and the development of preventative security controls. You'll work across the security technology stack, building and improving detection capabilities, integrating security tooling, automating processes and helping the organisation identify and mitigate threats before they become incidents.

• SIEM engineering, implementation and configuration
• Detection engineering and development of security monitoring use cases
• Threat hunting and incident investigation
• EDR and broader security tooling
• Security automation and orchestration / SOAR

You should also be comfortable communicating with both technical and non-technical stakeholders and producing strong documentation and reporting.
