  • Familiarity with security monitoring and investigation tooling (e.g., SIEM platforms, network monitoring, alerting systems)
  • Ability to analyse logs and network events to identify root cause and recommend remediation
  • Strong troubleshooting, problem-solving, and analytical skills
  • Clear written and verbal communication skills, including ability to document investigations and collaborate across teams
