Our client, a prominent enterprise with vast digital operations, is looking for a highly analytical professional to join their specialised security intelligence unit. This role is positioned perfectly at the intersection of big data analytics and cyber defence. You will be instrumental in shifting the organisation from a reactive security posture to a proactive one, uncovering hidden anomalies and precursors to potential cyber-attacks before they materialise.
Your Impact:
- Pioneer proactive threat discovery by engineering and validating complex hypotheses against massive, disparate datasets to expose concealed attack vectors.
- Distil highly technical analytical outputs into compelling, visually intuitive narratives that empower senior leadership to make swift, strategic security decisions.
- Partner seamlessly with operational security teams, translating your intelligence findings into immediate, targeted remediation strategies to neutralise emerging threats.
What You Bring:
- A strong academic background rooted in a quantitative discipline, such as Data Science, Applied Mathematics, Statistics, or Computer Science.
- Commercial experience (1+ years) deeply involved in data manipulation and quantitative analysis, underpinned by a rigorous grasp of statistical modelling, probability distributions, and hypothesis testing.
- Proven technical fluency in navigating and extracting value from large-scale data environments, utilising ecosystems like Spark, Hive, or Hadoop, alongside advanced SQL scripting capabilities.
- A genuine passion for the cybersecurity landscape; whilst deep security expertise can be developed, foundational knowledge of network topologies, system vulnerabilities, or relevant industry certifications will highly distinguish your application.
- Exceptional communication skills with a proven track record of mastering new technical domains autonomously.
