Role Summary

Join a high‑impact Cybersecurity Division where your expertise in cloud‑native logging architecture will directly shape enterprise security posture.

Responsibilities

• Develop, deploy, and maintain Elastic Logstash configurations and Microsoft Sentinel log ingestion pipelines
• Build and manage Azure resources including DCRs, DCEs, custom log tables, transformation rules, and Log Analytics workspaces
• Architect AWS log collection solutions using S3, ECS/Fargate, SQS, SNS, Lambda, EFS, CloudWatch, IAM, EC2, VPC, and KMS

• Lead code reviews and manage source‑code lifecycle through GitHub repositories
• Build integrations using KQL, JSON, Python, Syslog, SQL, and REST APIs

Ideal Candidates Will Have

• A track record of designing enterprise‑scale security telemetry architectures
• Experience integrating diverse cloud and security data sources into Microsoft Sentinel
• Hands‑on expertise across both AWS and Azure logging ecosystems
• Strong CI/CD automation experience for infrastructure and telemetry deployments

Required Skills/Experience

• 5+ years in Cloud Engineering; 3+ years with AWS and Azure
• 2+ years with Microsoft Sentinel or enterprise SIEM platforms
• 2+ years with Terraform and Elastic Logstash (or similar)
• 1+ years with KQL, Python, and SQL
• Active AWS or Azure certification (e.g., AWS Security Specialty, Azure Security Engineer Associate)

Other Skills

• Strong troubleshooting skills across cloud infrastructure, authentication, and data quality
• Familiarity with Entra ID, RBAC/IAM, and Logic Apps
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, IT, Cybersecurity, or equivalent experience

Important Notes

• Candidates must be able to clearly explain how they've designed and maintained log‑injection pipelines—this is a core screening criterion.
• A traditional data engineering background is acceptable, but practical experience in cloud security, SIEM/Sentinel, and log‑pipeline integration is essential.
