This role directly supports a proactive SOC model by contributing to detection engineering, monitoring enhancements, automation development, and continuous gap analysis to identify and mitigate emerging threats before they materialize. Key Responsibilities - Conduct proactive threat hunting across networks, endpoints, and security datasets to identify, isolate, and help eradicate advanced threats before they impact operations. - Analyze logs from multiple sources, including packet captures, correlation engines, parsed security data, and endpoint telemetry, to detect suspicious behavior and validate threat activity. - Establish and maintain baseline patterns for normal traffic, system activity, and data flows to improve anomaly detection and investigative accuracy. - Collaborate closely with SOC analysts and detection engineers to recommend new alerts, analytics, and monitoring logic based on threat hunting findings, emerging trends, and identified visibility gaps. - Develop automation scripts and workflows (using SOAR platforms, Python, PowerShell, or similar tools) to streamline threat hunting activities, automate repetitive analytical tasks, and reduce detection and response time. - Research and track adversary tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs), developing technical hypotheses and investigative leads based on threat intelligence and observed behaviors. - Support incident response activities by creating incident documentation, follow-up actions, reporting criteria, and recommendations that improve overall response maturity and operational resilience. - Examine and characterize malware and cyber threats, including viruses, worms, bots, rootkits, and Trojan horses, to determine threat nature, scope, and potential impact. - Apply reverse engineering and binary analysis techniques using tools such as Ghidra and IDA Pro to support vulnerability research and understand malicious code behavior. Qualifications - Bachelor’s degree in Information Technology, Computer Science, Cybersecurity, or a related field, or equivalent relevant experience. - 4 years of experience in cybersecurity or a closely related technical security role. - Demonstrated ability to perform system administrator-level analysis across multiple platforms and operating systems in support of cyber investigations. - Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to identify, track, and assess adversary TTPs and suspicious activity. - Knowledge of intrusion detection methodologies, evidence preservation practices, and cyber defense and information security policies, procedures, and regulations. - Ability to support work in a U.S.-only staffing environment and satisfy any client-required background investigation or security requirements. Preferred Qualifications - Relevant cybersecurity certifications such as GCDA, GNFA, CompTIA PenTest+, CISM, or CompTIA CySA+. - Experience with reverse engineering, malware analysis, vulnerability research, and threat analysis in enterprise or government environments. - Familiarity with U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) IT policies and operational security requirements. - Experience preparing technical reports, incident summaries, and threat findings for stakeholders and operational leadership. Job Specific Skills - Threat hunting and anomaly detection. - Log correlation and security event analysis. - Packet capture analysis and data parsing. - Malware analysis, reverse engineering, and binary analysis. - Threat intelligence analysis and TTP identification. - Incident response documentation and reporting. - Detection engineering collaboration and monitoring enhancement support.
