  • Proficiency in at least one scripting or programming language (Python, Perl, Shell/PowerShell, C/C++, Assembly).
  • Experience participating in security incident response, vulnerability remediation, and security operations.
  • Ability to support enterprise security systems in a rotating on‑call schedule.
  • Hands-on experience with incident response lifecycle management — including containment, eradication, and recovery — within complex enterprise networks.
  • Experience with SIEM platforms, EDR tooling, and email security solutions; hands-on experience with Splunk, CrowdStrike Falcon, and Proofpoint is strongly preferred.
