We are looking for a Senior IT/Security Operations Engineer to own and advance our security operations capability. This is a senior individual contributor role with a broad scope spanning SIEM/SOC operations, threat detection, SOAR automation, and infrastructure hardening.

Administer the organization’s EDR/XDR platform, managing policies, exclusions, and response actions. Lead periodic user access reviews and audit privileged access (PAM) usage. Integrate security controls and checks into CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions). Requirements 6+ years of experience in IT security, security operations, or a combined SecOps/DevSecOps role. Proven experience operating SIEM platforms and building SOAR playbooks in production environments. Deep proficiency in Linux and Windows hardening. Strong scripting ability in Python, PowerShell, or bash for operational automation. Expertise with vulnerability management tools (Tenable, Qualys, Rapid7) and EDR platforms. Solid understanding of IAM concepts, RBAC, and CI/CD security integration. Ability to act as a senior technical communicator and stay calm under pressure during incidents. Preferred Qualifications Experience in fintech, capital markets, or trading platform environments (strong advantage). Familiarity with financial industry frameworks (PCI-DSS, DORA, FFIEC). Cloud security operations experience (AWS, Azure, or GCP). Certifications: CISSP, CISM, GCIA, GCIH, or Splunk Certified Power User. Experience mentoring junior security engineers or analysts
