We are seeking a skilled Information Security Specialist to join our team at S-RM. As a key member of our Cybersecurity division, you will play a vital role in delivering our managed detection and response services.
In this position, you will be responsible for deploying your cybersecurity expertise to monitor security events, lead investigations, and respond to security incidents. You will have the opportunity to work with infrastructure and tools that power our Security Operations Center (SOC) to deliver desired security outcomes for our managed services clients.
The ideal candidate will have a solid understanding of security fundamentals, including threat detection, incident response, malware analysis, and network security. You should also have expertise in EDR and familiarity with other security tools such as SIEM, firewalls, and IDS/IPS.
As a collaborative team player, you will work closely with other IT teams, security engineers, and senior SOC members to refine detection processes and improve overall security posture.
We offer a dynamic work environment where you can grow your skills and expertise. If you are passionate about cybersecurity and want to make a difference, we encourage you to apply for this exciting opportunity.
Key Responsibilities
- Monitor security events and analyse alerts from EDR, SIEM, and other security tools to detect suspicious activities or potential threats.
- Lead investigations and respond to security incidents, executing containment, mitigation, and remediation steps as necessary.
- Proactively search for indicators of compromise (IoCs) and advanced threats within the environment, utilising both automated tools and manual analysis.
- Tune detection rules, automate workflows, and improve incident detection accuracy.
- Perform in-depth log analysis from firewalls, endpoint protection platforms, and SIEM solutions to investigate complex incidents.
- Stay informed of emerging threats and collaborate with the threat intelligence team to enhance detection capabilities.
- Ensure detailed documentation of incidents, responses, and resolutions to maintain a clear incident management process.
What We're Looking For

- A Bachelor's degree in a relevant subject, such as cybersecurity or computer science.
- 2+ years of experience in a SOC or cybersecurity operations role.
- Technical expertise in EDR, SIEM, firewalls, and IDS/IPS.
- Incident response experience, including responding to and remediating security incidents.
- An investigative mindset and ability to solve problems with limited information and guidance.
- Demonstrable knowledge of cyber threat actors and their tactics, techniques, and procedures.
