About the role

Key responsibilities & impact
  • Build out Forcepoint’s internal SOC — processes, tooling, detection coverage, and analyst workflows.
  • Hire, onboard, and develop a small, growing team of SOC analysts.
  • Lead incident response as a process owner — containment, investigation, remediation, recovery, and post-incident review.
  • Partner with the CISO, Security Architecture, and internal teams to align SOC priorities and improve security posture.

Requirements

What you’ll need
  • 5+ years in security operations, with 3+ years in a SOC leadership or senior SOC engineer role that included hands-on technical output alongside people management.
  • Proven, personal detection authorship at field-logic level in a SIEM (Splunk, Microsoft Sentinel, Elastic, QRadar, or equivalent).
  • Hands-on SOAR build experience — you have configured playbooks and automated workflows yourself (Splunk SOAR, Palo Alto XSOAR, Swimlane, or equivalent).
  • Strong log source fluency: given available data sources, you can independently identify detection opportunities without being prompted.
  • Working knowledge of cloud security in at least one major provider (AWS, Azure, or GCP), including cloud-native log sources and common attack techniques.

Benefits

Comp & perks
