  • Strong background in malware analysis, network forensics, IOC correlation, and reverse engineering fundamentals

  • Familiarity with cloud security threats and environments, including AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud Platform

  • Expertise in STIX/TAXII standards, IOC lifecycle management, and creation of detection content such as YARA and Sigma rules

  • Excellent analytical and problem-solving abilities focused on generating actionable intelligence

  • Strong verbal and written communication skills, capable of presenting complex technical information to both technical and executive stakeholders
