OperationsOperations Analyst

We are looking for a hands-on Security Operations Analyst to join a globally distributed cybersecurity team dedicated to protecting businesses against increasingly sophisticated cyber threats. In this role, you will investigate active intrusions, analyse endpoint telemetry and forensic evidence, and help detect, contain, and remediate malicious activity. You will work with advanced EDR and SIEM technologies, contribute to threat detection improvements, and support incident response initiatives. Collaborating with Security Operations, Product, and Engineering teams, you will help strengthen security capabilities and improve customer protection. This is an opportunity to work on real-world cyber incidents, develop your technical expertise, and make a meaningful impact in a remote-first environment.

Monitor, triage, investigate, and respond to security alerts generated by the cybersecurity platform, identifying threats and coordinating appropriate remediation.

Perform dynamic malware analysis when required to identify malicious behaviour, extract indicators of compromise, and assess suspicious files.

Investigate attacker activity across Windows, Linux, and macOS environments, identifying techniques such as credential theft, lateral movement, persistence, and data exfiltration.

Analyse suspicious activity within Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace environments, providing actionable recommendations to secure compromised accounts and tenants.

Develop, refine, and optimise detection capabilities by creating and tuning security signals, improving alert quality, and maintaining efficient investigation workflows.

Support customer success by assisting security support teams with escalations and technical questions relating to threats and security operations.

Collaborate with Product and Engineering teams to improve security products, detection mechanisms, and human-led, AI-assisted security workflows.

Continuously develop technical knowledge through real-world investigations, professional training, threat research, and the responsible use of AI tools to improve analytical efficiency.

Contribute to the wider cybersecurity community by sharing research, insights, and technical expertise through publications, webinars, blogs, and industry events.
