Job description

Join to apply for the Cyber Security Manager role at Cyber Managed Services Inc. (CyberMSI).

CyberMSI is a U.S.-based managed XDR and compliance firm built to stop cyberattacks before business disruption happens. We have an "AI + analyst-on-the-loop" SOC model where AI moves at machine speed while analysts remain accountable for decisions that impact the business.

Powered by Microsoft Defender XDR and Microsoft Sentinel SIEM, we protect AI agents, identities, apps, data, endpoints, multi-cloud, and third-party access. We use AI to accelerate correlation of attack signals, enable rapid threat containment, and execute response actions or approval workflows based on real business context, not generic playbooks. Our difference is not AI-based automation alone; it is Accountable & Intelligent automation.

We’re growing fast and are seeking an AI SecOps Manager to lead our SOC, scale AI-assisted processes, and ensure high-quality customer work products. This role combines operational leadership with AI-driven SOC orchestration, enabling optimized detection, investigation, and response workflows while driving adoption of GenAI-assisted automation and analytics.

What you’ll do:

• Lead and manage day-to-day SOC operations across multiple environments, integrating AI-assisted workflows to ensure timely and accurate incident detection and response.
• Oversee AI-driven SecOps processes, implementing automation, GenAI orchestration, and operational guardrails to enhance efficiency and consistency.
• Mentor and develop SOC Leads, Analysts, and AI-assisted teams, fostering a culture of continuous improvement, AI adoption, and operational excellence.
• Collaborate with Threat Detection, Threat Validation, Automation, and QA teams to refine AI-assisted workflows, close gaps, and drive SOC operational maturity.
• Provide strategic reporting, recommendations, and stakeholder communications to executive leadership, ensuring SLA adherence, KPI achievement, and informed decision-making.

What you’ll bring:

• Minimum 7 years of experience in SOC management, security operations, or incident response leadership.
• Strong hands-on experience with Microsoft Defender XDR and Sentinel SIEM.
• Strong understanding of AI-assisted security operations, alerts, and investigation workflows.
• Proven leadership experience managing multiple teams in an MDR environment.
• Strong knowledge of cloud, endpoint, identity, and email security threat landscapes.
• Ability to translate complex operational challenges into clear, actionable strategies.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
• Experience implementing SOAR, automation, and GenAI-driven workflows in a SOC environment.
• Relevant certifications such as SC-200 is a plus.

What we’ll offer:

• Market competitive base pay and twice-yearly performance-based bonuses.
• Monthly allowances for health insurance, laptop, and internet.
• Paid time off for up to 20 days every year plus all government holidays.
• Opportunity to work internationally from CyberMSI’s locations in the USA, UAE, and other locations through intra-company assignments.
• Ongoing training on latest cybersecurity and AI technologies.
• Reimbursements for relevant cybersecurity certifications.
