The opportunity
Security Analyst, Core42 - Abu Dhabi, UAE. We are looking for a senior Security Analyst to anchor the technical depth of our 24x7 Security Operations Centre. This role detects, triages, investigates and responds to security incidents across our private-cloud platform and the enterprise services it supports. The successful candidate is a hands-on practitioner who can own an incident end to end - from the first alert in Splunk through containment, eradication and recovery - while also raising the quality of our detections and acting as a senior escalation point and mentor for less-experienced analysts. The environment is a private cloud built on OpenStack and Red Hat OpenShift, instrumented with Splunk (SIEM), Cribl (data pipeline), Elastic Security (EDR) and Corelight (NDR). Comfort working across virtualised and containerised infrastructure log sources is expected. The role reports to the SOC Manager and operates on a full-time, 24x7 rotational shift basis.
Your key responsibilities
Security monitoring, triage & detection
Monitor security alerts and events in Splunk to identify threats, anomalies and malicious activity across the private-cloud platform and enterprise services
Perform triage and investigation of security events, acting as the senior technical decision point on whether an alert represents a genuine incident
Serve as the senior escalation point for front-line analysts, providing investigative guidance and validating findings before escalation
Investigate EDR and NDR alerts involving malware, suspicious scripts, credential theft, lateral movement, persistence, ransomware and endpoint or network compromise
Incident response (full lifecycle)
Own security incidents end to end across the full response lifecycle: identification, containment, eradication, recovery and post-incident review
Execute containment and remediation actions in coordination with platform, infrastructure, network and application teams
Lead the response on assigned incidents and coordinate cross-team activity to ensure timely investigation, escalation and resolution
Develop and maintain incident response playbooks and standard operating procedures (SOPs), and drive their improvement after each major incident
SIEM, detection engineering & log pipeline
Create, tune and optimise Splunk correlation searches, alerts, dashboards and reports to improve detection quality and coverage
Write and maintain efficient SPL queries supporting investigation, hunting, reporting and detection engineering
Reduce alert fatigue by tuning noisy detections, lowering false positives and strengthening correlation logic, weighing false-positive cost against miss cost when making tuning decisions
Support onboarding of new log sources and validate log quality, parsing, field extraction and normalisation
Manage and maintain Cribl Stream/Edge pipelines for log routing, filtering, enrichment and normalisation, optimising data flow and Splunk licence consumption
Threat hunting & intelligence
Conduct hypothesis-driven threat hunts to uncover advanced persistent threats (APTs) and techniques that evade existing detections
Map detection coverage to MITRE ATT&CK, identify and report gaps, and convert successful hunts into durable detections
Apply threat intelligence and frameworks (MITRE ATT&CK, Cyber Kill Chain, Diamond Model) to enrich investigations and improve detection and response
Identify patterns, trends and indicators of compromise (IOCs) to proactively detect and prevent recurrence
Documentation, reporting & governance
Conduct root cause analysis (RCA) and produce clear incident reports for management and stakeholders
Maintain accurate, detailed records of incidents, actions taken, evidence collected and lessons learned in the case-management platform
Contribute to the continuous improvement of security monitoring use cases and detection rules
Support audit and compliance requirements by providing evidence of incident-management activities
Working arrangement
Operate within a 24x7 SOC, participating in rotational day, evening and night shifts, including weekends and public holidays on a rotational basis
Meet defined acknowledgement, triage and escalation SLAs on each shift and complete structured shift handovers to maintain continuity of in-flight incidents

Elastic Security (EDR) and Corelight (NDR) for endpoint and network threat detection, investigation and response
Threat frameworks: MITRE ATT&CK (including coverage mapping), Cyber Kill Chain and Diamond Model

What is an ATS CV?
Applicant Tracking System or "ATS", is the software that 'READS' your CV and stores this information in a database. Like this:
If the CV is not made as per the RULES of the ATS, the information will get messed up in the database. In the image below, 'PMP' has gone into the 'Mobile Number' column. The Mobile Number '052 1234567' has gone into the 'Main Skill' column.
So a recruiter searching for a candidate with PMP certification, will never find this person, in spite of his 'CV information' existing in the database...
...And, he will wonder why he gets rejected in spite of being a PERFECT MATCH for the Job.
