Cyber Security Operations Center (CSOC) Engineer

About the Role & Vision

We are expanding our global security capabilities to deliver continuous, expert-level security operations across all DATAONE and BSO systems. Built on a foundation of proven open-source technologies and enterprise solutions, our security infrastructure is operated by a highly skilled, follow-the-sun team based in Casablanca and Davao.

Orchestrated directly by the SOC Manager, our SOC team focuses purely on detection, response, and cyber security infrastructure management. While the team does not manage regulatory compliance directly, you will act as the technical enabler for our governance goals by providing all necessary technical evidence and reports to the compliance team to ensure successful audits.

Key Responsibilities

• Core Focus: Dedicate operations entirely to threat detection, incident response, and security infrastructure engineering.
• Audit & Compliance Support: Collect, organize, and provide all required technical evidence, log extracts, and vulnerability reports to the compliance team to guarantee successful group audits.
• SIEM & Log Management: Maintain, tune, and optimize Wazuh for central logging, File Integrity Monitoring (FIM), and Host Intrusion Detection (HIDS) across all Group infrastructure.
• Endpoint Defense: Manage and deploy Bitdefender GravityZone for endpoint protection, threat detection, and automated host isolation during incidents.
• Perimeter & Network Security: Configure and monitor Fortinet NGFW/WAF for perimeter defense and web application security; manage network intrusion detection systems using Suricata.
• Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA): Administer and secure remote infrastructure access utilizing NetBird and WireGuard.
• Incident Response & Automation (SOAR): Orchestrate incident response workflows, incident management, and automated enrichment using TheHive and Cortex.
• Threat Intelligence & Vulnerability Management: Aggregate and analyze Indicators of Compromise (IoCs) via MISP, Shadowserver, and SOCRadar. Conduct scheduled scanning and CVE tracking using OpenVAS and VulnTracker.
• Active Directory Auditing: Execute risk scoring and map complex attack paths within Active Directory using BloodHound and PingCastle, ensure follow up actions with AD Admins
• Data Protection: Assist in evaluating and implementing a future Data Loss Prevention (DLP) solution to protect sensitive data across DataOne and BSO systems.
