Job Description

CAI is hiring! We are looking for a Cybersecurity Analyst for a 12-month+ contract opportunity that is onsite in Long Beach, CA. The Cybersecurity Analyst owns escalated alerts and confirmed incidents that clear front-line triage, investigating and driving them to resolution.
What You’ll Do

• Own escalated alerts and confirmed incidents that clear front-line triage — investigate, scope impact, and drive them to resolution

• Serve as the escalation point for the L1 triage analysts, including phishing intake, providing guidance and quality control

• Investigate across the full appliance stack Eng maintains — EDR, SIEM, firewall, email security, and identity/access — correlating signal across tools rather than working alerts in isolation

• Participate in coverage that spans business hours

• Feed real investigation findings back to Detection Engineering so tuning reflects what's actually happening on the floor, not just theoretical use-cases

• Work alongside the Cybersecurity Engineer team to validate and refine agent-assisted alert triage

• Document findings clearly enough to support incident response, audit, and handoff to after-hours team

• Work with the SOC Lead to create documented alert triage workflows

What You’ll Need

Required:

• 2-4 years hands-on experience triaging, investigating, and escalating security alerts in a SOC or equivalent operations environment

• Working fluency across core security tooling — EDR, SIEM/log analysis, network/firewall traffic, email security, and identity systems

• Working Knowledge of Crowdstrike, Darktrace and/or Splunk

• Sound judgment on when to dig in independently versus loop in Detection Engineering, Eng, or the automation team

• Willingness to work alongside AI-assisted triage tooling and give the engineers building it real, specific feedback

• Clear written communication; documenting incidents that other teams and auditors will read

Physical Demands

• Ability to safely and successfully perform the essential job functions consistent with the ADA and other federal, state, and local standards

• Sedentary work involving sitting or remaining stationary most of the time with occasional need to move around the office to attend meetings, etc.

• Ability to conduct repetitive tasks on a computer, utilizing a mouse, keyboard, and monitor
