In this role, you will be part of a 24/7/365 SOC requiring rotating on-call coverage for overnights and weekends (compliant with local labor regulations), utilize SIEM/EDR tools, support containment/remediation, contribute to detections-as-code, maintain runbooks, and collaborate across threat intelligence and detection engineering teams.
Who You Are

- Working knowledge of Linux and MacOS systems, including logging and common forensic artifacts.
- Exposure to Kubernetes and an interest in securing containerized environments.
- Familiarity with modern security tools and platforms such as SIEM, EDR, IDS/IPS, and firewalls.
- Solid understanding of network protocols, firewalls, VPNs, proxies, and other security technologies.
- Degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Cyber Security, Information Technology, or equivalent experience.
Preferred
- Strong analytical skills with the ability to interpret data and translate it into actionable insights.
- Excellent communication and collaboration skills with proven effectiveness in high-pressure situations.
- Drive to continuously build skills across the threat landscape, security tooling, and CoreWeave's environment.
