About the Opportunity

Pragmatike is recruiting on behalf of a major international organization for a Security Operations Analyst specializing in SIEM and Threat Detection.

You’ll join a global Cybersecurity Operations team focused on building, operating, and continuously improving the security monitoring capabilities protecting international organizations and their technology environments.

Unlike a traditional SOC monitoring role, this position has a strong focus on SIEM administration, detection engineering, security content, data-source onboarding, use-case lifecycle management, and detection optimization.

You’ll work closely with Threat Intelligence, Incident Response, and Cybersecurity Operations teams to turn security requirements and emerging threats into effective, measurable detection capabilities.

Onboard, integrate, test, and validate new security data sources and telemetry feeds.

Review and improve detection logic, security content, and monitoring configurations.

Collaborate with Threat Intelligence and Incident Response teams to translate threats into actionable detection capabilities.

Support cybersecurity architecture reviews and provide recommendations to improve security monitoring.

Build and maintain security metrics, dashboards, KPIs, and service-performance reports.

Evaluate detection effectiveness and identify opportunities to reduce false positives.

Contribute to quality assurance, process reviews, control validation, and corrective actions.

Strong Linux, macOS, and Windows knowledge.

Fluent English with excellent written and verbal communication skills.

Nice to Have

Experience designing SIEM architecture from initial design through implementation.

Experience building data-ingestion pipelines for diverse cloud and on-premise log sources.

Experience working across multiple customer environments.

Why Join

Work beyond traditional SOC monitoring and contribute to the engineering and optimization of security detection capabilities.

Gain exposure to large-scale SIEM, EDR, cloud, and threat-detection environments.

Work directly with Threat Intelligence, Incident Response, and Cybersecurity Operations teams.

Help shape detection use cases, monitoring architecture, and operational processes.

Work on cybersecurity services supporting multiple international organizations.
