Endpoint Security Analyst

As an Endpoint Security Engineer, you will play a crucial role in implementing, monitoring, and optimizing endpoint protection platforms to ensure the security of our IT infrastructure against modern threats. Your primary responsibilities will include deploying, configuring, and managing security tools such as Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, CrowdStrike Falcon, and SentinelOne. You will also be tasked with monitoring and responding to security alerts, investigating suspicious activities, and collaborating with SOC/IT teams for root cause analysis. In this role, it is essential to tune policies, rules, and detection logic to enhance threat visibility and reduce false positives. You will support day-to-day operations, including patching, EDR tool maintenance, and threat hunting, while maintaining documentation for configurations, incident reports, and remediation actions. Staying updated with the latest threats, vulnerabilities, and EDR technology updates will be crucial to your success. To excel in this position, you should have experience with Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, CrowdStrike, and/or SentinelOne, along with familiarity with SIEM platforms like Microsoft Sentinel. A solid understanding of endpoint threat vectors, malware behavior, and basic forensic techniques is desirable. Exposure to compliance frameworks such as ISO 27001 and NIST would be a plus. Soft skills such as strong problem-solving abilities, effective communication, attention to detail, and the capability to work both independently and collaboratively are essential for this role. Your ability to document findings and present security insights clearly will be key to ensuring the effectiveness of our endpoint security measures.,
