Performing hunting for unknown cyber threats using profiling techniques to find unusual or anomalous activity which has not been detected by vendor signatures.
Mentor junior analysts to build the capability in the team.
Overseeing and providing direction to ensure objectives are met by projects delivering new tools and capability into the security operations squad.

**Role Type**: Permanent, Full-Time
