Overview

We are seeking a motivated SOC Analyst to join our team. This is a unique opportunity to gain hands-on experience in detecting, analyzing, and responding to cybersecurity threats while also contributing to research, automation, and advanced security initiatives.

This role blends operational monitoring with coding/scripting and R&D, making it ideal for candidates who want to grow into well-rounded cybersecurity professionals—not just alert responders.

  • Develop and improve automation scripts, tools, and playbooks (primarily in Python) to enhance SOC efficiency and reduce manual workload.
  • Participate in threat research: analyzing emerging attack vectors, malware, and vulnerabilities to strengthen detection strategies.
  • Contribute to security R&D projects—experimenting with new technologies, writing proof-of-concept scripts, and implementing detection logic.
  • Collaborate with senior analysts, threat hunters, and incident response on complex investigations.
  • Maintain documentation of incidents, findings, and process improvements.
  • Continuously upgrade skills through research, and certifications.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Security, or related discipline (or equivalent experience).
  • Strong foundation in networking, operating systems, and security fundamentals (TCP/IP, logs, firewalls, SIEM, IDS/IPS).
  • Hands-on coding/scripting skills – preferably in Python (PowerShell, Bash, or other scripting languages are a plus).
  • Familiarity with SIEM solutions (Splunk, QRadar, Elastic, etc.) and log analysis.
  • Analytical and troubleshooting ability under pressure.
  • Good written and verbal communication skills.
  • Strong willingness to work in rotational shifts (morning/afternoon/evening).

Preferred Skills

  • Certifications: CompTIA Security+, CySA+, CEH, or equivalent. are a plus
  • Exposure to malware analysis, threat intelligence,
  • Experience in creating custom detection rules or scripts (YARA, Sigma, Snort, etc.). are plus
  • Previous internship or hands-on project experience in a SOC, cybersecurity lab, or capture-the-flag (CTF) competitions.

Shift Details

  • 6 Day work week, 9hour shift
  • Rotating shifts (Morning/Evening/Night)
  • Must be comfortable with night shifts and flexible to work weekends/holidays as part of the rotation.

Benefits

  • Gain real SOC experience in a fast-paced cybersecurity environment.
  • Exposure to advanced tools, frameworks, and research projects that go beyond monitoring.
  • Learning and certification support for relevant cybersecurity credentials.
  • Clear career growth opportunities into Mid-level SOC, Threat Hunting, or Incident Response roles.
