  • Experience automating security detection and response.
  • Working knowledge of the Cyber Kill Chain and MITRE ATT&CK frameworks and how they apply to the current threat landscape.
  • Ability to lead through influence in complex, ambiguous situations.
  • Ability to stay calm, collaborative, and decisive in high-pressure situations.
  • Strong organization, prioritization, and multitasking skills.
  • A self-motivated, creative problem-solver who works well independently.

Preferred

  • Familiarity with Elasticsearch.
  • Experience with AWS services such as EC2, S3, Lambda, and RDS.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
