This is a fantastic opportunity to be part of something from the ground up β€” designing, building, and optimising a cutting-edge SOC environment based on
CrowdStrike NG-SIEM (LogScale / Humio)
.

The Role

    KQL
    or similar query languages

    greenfield SOC build
    β€” shape its tools, processes, and culture from day one
  • Work with
    CrowdStrike\’s latest SIEM technology (LogScale)
  • Join a
    high-performance security team
    that values initiative, collaboration, and growth
