Job Description

We are looking for a hybrid expert in cybersecurity operations and AI engineering to lead the development, customization, and operationalization of AI-powered SOC automation systems.

This role will bridge the gap between frontline SOC operations and backend AI/ML capabilities driving intelligent alert triage, threat detection, and incident response automation through tools like Intezer, Cortex XSOAR, and custom AI pipelines.

You will play a key role in both defending the organization and building the intelligent systems that scale our defenses.

Key Responsibilities

SOC & Threat Detection (Analyst Responsibilities):

  • Monitor and triage security alerts using AI-assisted tooling.

  • Analyze, investigate, and escalate incidents using threat intel and log data.

  • Provide threat context, root cause analysis, and response recommendations.

  • Fine-tune detection rules, behavioral baselines, and IOC correlations.

  • Serve as SME for SOC use cases and automation requirements.

AI Engineering & Automation:

  • Design and maintain ML models for anomaly detection, classification, and triage.

  • Build automation workflows using SOAR platforms (e.g., Cortex XSOAR).

  • Integrate AI models with SIEM, EDR, TIP, and other SOC data sources.

  • Develop feedback loops based on SOC analyst input and incident data.

  • Reduce false positives/negatives through intelligent alert enrichment.


Collaboration & Strategy:

  • Collaborate with threat intel, IR

  • Drive innovation in SOC tooling through automation and AI.

  • Maintain documentation, model explainability, and audit readiness.

  • Stay ahead of adversarial threats and AI misuse in cyber contexts.Qualifications

Must-Have:

  • 3+ years in a SOC Analyst, Incident Responder, or Threat Hunter role.

  • 2+ years developing or applying AI/ML in a cybersecurity or security automation context.

  • Proficient in Python and ML libraries (Scikit-learn, PyTorch, TensorFlow).

  • Experience with SIEMs (Splunk, Sentinel, QRadar), SOARs (XSOAR, TheHive), and EDRs (CrowdStrike, Defender).

  • Strong grasp of MITRE ATT&CK, threat detection, and common attack vectors.

  • Familiarity with APIs, REST, JSON, and integration of multiple security platforms.


Nice-to-Have:

  • Experience with malware classification, threat intel enrichment, or sandbox analysis (e.g., Intezer, VirusTotal).

  • Knowledge of adversarial ML, model hardening, or explainable AI in SOC.

  • Experience with cloud-native security monitoring (AWS/GCP/Azure).

  • Familiarity with MLOps, data pipelines, or model deployment in production.
