The Team:

You’ll be joining a modern Security Operations (SecOps) team, where the focus is on deep-dive security investigations and active incident response.

What you’ll bring:

Experience in the trenches: You’ve worked in a security team before for 3+ years - if that was in FinTech or a cloud-native environment, even better.

Tech-savvy: You’re comfortable with modern engineering tech stacks and understand how they fit together.

AI-curious: You’ve played around with AI agents and understand how they work.

A team player: We’re looking for someone who collaborates well but is also perfectly comfortable working independently when the situation calls for it.

Flexibility: Our SOC team runs 24/7, so you’ll need to be open to a shift rotation (including weekends or staggered hours).

Solid foundations: You deeply understand networking, operating systems, and log analysis.

A keen eye: You care about quality and have the critical thinking skills to spot those tiny anomalies that others might miss.

Great at juggling: You can comfortably handle and prioritize multiple moving parts, keeping your cool when things get busy.

Nice-to-haves :

Experience combating fraud targeting financial services organizations.

Worked in an AI SOC setting before.

Demonstrated Engineering skills - Systems or network admin, DevSecOps, Cloud infrastructure

Contributed to open source projects or has published quality research

Relevant technical certifications.

We really encourage you to apply, even if your background doesn’t fit the “traditional” SOC profile. We value fresh perspectives and unique backgrounds.
