Preferred Qualifications:

·       Experience with Tines for SOC automation and agentic workflow orchestration.

·       Experience building an Agentic SOC using LLM/AI agents for enrichment, investigation, triage, response, and feedback-driven evaluation.

·       Hands-on experience with LLMs, intelligent agents, AI/ML-assisted security tooling, prompt design, or agent evaluation.

·       Relevant certifications such as Microsoft Cybersecurity Architect, GIAC Security Automation, or Azure Security Engineer Associate.
