We are recognised market leaders in the delivery of high-quality technology solutions to large public, private, and government organisations.

We hire for the long term and have a strong focus on training and developing our employees. Everyday our 1,500+ amazing crew come to Kinetic IT not just to work but be challenged, grow and be part of something bigger.
About the role:
We're looking for a Senior Security Analyst to join our growing Security Operations Centre (SOC) team at Kinetic IT. This role is a key senior position, operating as both a technical lead for the SOC and a mentor for other analysts, ensuring our team delivers high-quality cyber security services to one of our key national customers.
As a Level 3 SOC role, you'll tackle the most complex security challenges, lead the technical response to incidents, and drive improvements in detection engineering and automation. You'll also have the opportunity to work on strategic projects and shape the way our SOC evolves as it matures.
This position blends deep technical expertise with leadership, stakeholder engagement, and process uplift responsibilities. You'll work alongside our wider cyber teams across Australia, collaborating on projects that strengthen our security posture and provide better outcomes for our customers. Please note an active AGSVA NV1 security clearance is a compulsory requirement for the role.
Duties and responsibilities:
As a Senior Security Analyst, you will:
- Lead the response to critical and complex cyber security incidents, ensuring timely containment and remediation.
- Operate as the primary escalation point for Level 1 and Level 2 SOC analysts.
- Act as a technical mentor, coaching and developing the capability of junior and mid-level SOC staff.
- Drive continuous improvement of SOC processes, playbooks, and documentation.
- Enhance and fine-tune detection engineering and alerting rules within Microsoft Sentinel.
- Leverage SOAR platforms to strengthen automation and reduce response times.
- Contribute to project-based work, including SOC capability uplift initiatives and security solution implementations.
- Collaborate with internal teams including Service Desk, Cyber Security, and Architecture to support incident response and strategic initiatives.
- Ensure compliance with governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) requirements through quality documentation and reporting.
- Participate in the SOC on-call roster (approx. once every 3 weeks).
About you:
- Experience: 5+ years in cyber security, ideally within SOC environments, with at least 2 years operating at a senior/technical lead level.
- Binary analysis expertise: Skilled in reverse engineering, malware analysis, and binary exploitation techniques to support threat investigations.
- Technical expertise: Strong background in Microsoft Sentinel SIEM, detection engineering, incident response, and SOAR tooling.
- Leadership: Demonstrated ability to mentor, train, and uplift junior security analysts.
- Cloud security: Solid understanding of cloud environments, particularly Microsoft Azure, with exposure to modern security controls.
- Tooling knowledge: Familiarity with Azure DevOps and ServiceNow for task tracking, workflow management, and collaboration.
- Process orientation: Experience with GRC frameworks, security documentation, and compliance processes.
- Collaboration: Strong interpersonal skills, with the ability to engage stakeholders, lead security investigations, and work both independently and as part of a team.
- Clearance: Active NV1 clearance required to be considered.
