  • Support SOC onboarding by integrating SIEM pipelines with SOAR, TI, and case management systems.
  • Conduct readiness validation and performance benchmarking of logging and SOC onboarding architectures.

  • Proficiency in SIEM platforms (Splunk Cloud/Enterprise Security, Microsoft Sentinel).
  • Strong scripting and automation skills (Python, SQL, PowerShell).
  • Familiarity with cloud environments (AWS, Azure, GCP).
