đź“‹ Description
- • As a Middle Security Systems Engineer at Exadel Inc., you will be at the forefront of protecting our global technology infrastructure and client assets from evolving cyber threats. You will play a critical role in a dynamic, AI-first environment, contributing to the security posture of Fortune 500 clients and innovative projects. This position demands a proactive, hands-on approach to security operations, encompassing real-time threat monitoring, comprehensive incident response, and strategic vulnerability management.
- • Your primary responsibility will involve the continuous monitoring of security events and threats across various systems. You will lead the full lifecycle of incident response, from initial detection and classification to escalation and coordinated resolution with IT and development teams. This includes analyzing security alerts, investigating potential breaches, and implementing containment and eradication strategies to minimize impact.
- • A key aspect of your role will be the meticulous tuning of detection rules within our SIEM (Security Information and Event Management) systems, such as OpenSearch/Elasticsearch, Graylog, and Logstash. You will correlate disparate log sources, integrate threat intelligence feeds, and connect third-party security solutions like EDR (Endpoint Detection and Response), authentication systems, and cloud services to enhance our detection capabilities. This ensures our SIEM is a robust and effective tool for identifying malicious activities.
- • You will actively engage in proactive threat hunting, leveraging your understanding of attack vectors and indicators of compromise (IOCs) to identify threats that may have bypassed automated defenses. This involves developing and executing hunt hypotheses, analyzing endpoint and network data, and staying ahead of emerging attacker methodologies.
- • Analyzing and mitigating email-borne threats will be another significant duty. You will investigate suspicious emails within Google Workspace, triage alerts from Gmail Admin Logs and Alert Center, and conduct controlled phishing simulations using tools like GoPhish to test and improve user awareness and organizational resilience.
- • Collaboration is paramount. You will work closely with DevOps and infrastructure teams to ensure that new systems, applications, and cloud environments are designed and deployed with robust security coverage from the outset. This includes reviewing architecture, implementing security controls, and validating security configurations.
- • You will also be responsible for monitoring mobile device compliance and auditing Mobile Device Management (MDM) event logs to ensure adherence to corporate security policies and regulatory requirements. This involves working with MDM solutions such as ManageEngine Endpoint Central, Intune, Jamf, and MobileIron.
- • Translating complex technical security findings into clear, concise business risk assessments for stakeholders, including non-technical management, will be essential. You will maintain comprehensive security documentation, including policies, procedures, and incident reports, and continuously update your knowledge on emerging threats, vulnerabilities, and defensive techniques.
- • Handling service requests and providing expert support for security-related inquiries from internal teams will be part of your daily routine. You will also coordinate with external vendors, including managing penetration testing engagements, reviewing methodologies, and validating the findings and remediation efforts.
- • Proactive vulnerability management is a core function. You will manage scheduled and ad hoc vulnerability scans using tools like Qualys VMDR/WAS and Snyk.io, analyze the results, prioritize vulnerabilities based on risk, coordinate remediation efforts with system owners, and validate that fixes have been effectively implemented. This systematic approach helps to reduce our attack surface.
- • You will contribute to maintaining compliance with security standards like ISO/IEC 27001, ensuring that our security practices align with industry best practices and regulatory requirements. Your ability to document and report on security posture, incidents, and remediation efforts will be crucial for demonstrating compliance and continuous improvement.
- • This role offers the opportunity to work on cutting-edge technologies and contribute to the security of a leading global tech company, making a tangible impact on protecting valuable digital assets and maintaining client trust. You will be part of a collaborative team that values innovation, continuous learning, and a proactive approach to cybersecurity.
🎯 Requirements
- • Minimum of 3 years of hands-on experience in information security, with a strong focus on Security Operations Center (SOC) and vulnerability management operations.
- • Practical, operational experience in security tasks, not solely advisory or theoretical roles.
- • Proven experience in vulnerability management, including scanning, analysis, prioritization, remediation coordination, and validation.
- • Proficiency with SIEM systems, including log correlation, detection rule tuning, and integrating third-party data sources.
- • Solid understanding of threat hunting concepts, including IOC/IOA analysis and the ability to apply these techniques in practice.
🏖️ Benefits
- • Opportunity to work on international projects with Fortune 500 clients.
- • Flexibility in work arrangements, including in-office, hybrid, or remote options.
- • Comprehensive medical healthcare coverage.
- • Access to ongoing learning and professional development reimbursement programs.
