What You’ll Do Are you a hands-on security engineer ready to deepen your expertise in SIEM platforms and help build scalable, data-driven detection capabilities? As a SIEM Engineer II, you will play a key role in the implementation, optimization, and day-to-day management of the organization//'s Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) platform. You’ll contribute to the ingestion, normalization, and enrichment of security telemetry while supporting detection engineering, incident response, and security analytics. Working within the Cybersecurity function, you’ll collaborate with Cybersecurity Operations, IT, Infrastructure, Cloud, and Application teams to onboard log sources, develop detections, and create dashboards that drive visibility and response. This is an opportunity to grow your technical depth while making a measurable impact on the organization’s security posture.

• Cribl Development - Support the design and maintenance of Cribl pipelines, including data routing, filtering, enrichment, and performance optimization.
• Log Integration - Build and maintain integrations for standard and custom log sources using APIs, agents, syslog, and cloud-native logging services.
• Detection Enablement - Partner with Cybersecurity Operations to develop and refine SIEM use cases, correlation rules, and alerting logic.
• Dashboards & Reporting - Create and enhance dashboards, searches, and reports to support Security Operations Center (SOC) activities and threat hunting.
• Documentation - Contribute to documentation of SIEM architecture, data flows, onboarding processes, and operational procedures.
• Data Quality Assurance - Help establish and monitor data quality standards to ensure reliable and accurate telemetry.
• Cross-Team Collaboration - Work with IT, Cloud, and Application teams to onboard new systems and ensure proper logging coverage.

• Continuous Learning - Stay current on SIEM technologies, security analytics, and observability trends to enhance capabilities.

What You’ll Bring

• Education - Bachelor’s degree or equivalent professional experience required.
• Experience - Minimum of 3-5 years in IT or engineering, with at least 2-3 years focused on SIEM, logging, or security analytics.
• SIEM Fundamentals - Hands-on experience working with SIEM platforms such as Google SecOps (Chronicle), Splunk, Exabeam, or Microsoft Sentinel.
• Cribl Exposure - Experience working with Cribl, including pipeline configuration and log onboarding, preferred.
• Data Integration Skills - Familiarity with integrating log sources using APIs, syslog, or agents.
• Analytics & Visualization - Experience building dashboards, alerts, and queries to support security monitoring and operations.
• Security Knowledge - Understanding of common log sources, including endpoint, network, identity, cloud, SaaS (Software as a Service), and application logs.
• Collaboration & Communication - Ability to work effectively with cross-functional teams and communicate technical concepts clearly.
• Technical Foundation - Exposure to scripting or query languages (e.g., SPL, KQL, Python, Regex) and cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP) is a plus.
• Problem Solving & Growth Mindset - Strong analytical skills, attention to detail, and a proactive approach to learning and improvement.
