Remote She Reads Truth Jobs (NOW HIRING)

We are sharing a specialised part-time consulting opportunity for experienced SOC investigation professionals with strong backgrounds in alert triage, incident investigation, Splunk-based log analysis, evidence correlation, timeline reconstruction, and security investigation quality review.

This role supports current and upcoming remote consulting opportunities focused on SOC investigation evaluation, alert validation, security evidence review, investigation workflow assessment, and high-quality technical documentation. Selected professionals may apply hands-on experience across SIEM, endpoint, cloud, and identity environments to review, validate, and construct accurate security investigations based on real-world scenarios.

Key Responsibilities

Professionals in this role may contribute to:

SOC Alert Review & Investigation Evaluation

• Review, monitor, and evaluate SOC alerts and investigation outputs based on predefined scenarios and criteria
• Distinguish true positives from false positives by validating alert context, investigative evidence, and supporting signals
• Assess whether security investigation conclusions are correct, incomplete, unsupported, or inaccurate
• Apply consistent investigative judgment while recognizing that more than one valid investigation path may exist for the same alert

Splunk-Based Investigation & Log Analysis

• Use Splunk to pivot across logs, entities, timelines, alerts, and investigation artifacts
• Read, understand, and reason about SPL queries in the context of security investigations
• Perform log analysis, entity pivoting, timeline reconstruction, and evidence correlation when required
• Identify relevant signals across SIEM data and explain how evidence supports an investigation conclusion

Security Evidence & Ground-Truth Review

• Evaluate the correctness, completeness, and quality of SOC investigations produced through structured workflows
• Make clear quality determinations while also producing detailed ground-truth investigations when required
• Review investigation steps, assumptions, supporting evidence, and final conclusions for accuracy and consistency
• Help ensure investigation outputs reflect practical SOC judgment and evidence-based security reasoning

Documentation & Quality Standards

• Maintain clear and accurate documentation of investigative steps, assumptions, evidence, and conclusions
• Provide structured feedback on investigation quality, alert handling, and technical reasoning
• Collaborate with project leads and other security specialists to uphold high-quality investigation standards
• Support or mentor other analysts where applicable, particularly in long-term or lead reviewer roles

Ideal Profile

Strong candidates may have:

• 3+ years of hands-on experience as a SOC analyst in a production SOC environment
• Tier 2 or higher SOC analyst experience is strongly preferred
• Strong understanding of alert triage, incident investigation workflows, security evidence, and time-sensitive decision-making
• Mandatory hands-on experience with Splunk, including conducting investigations, reading SPL queries, and pivoting between logs, entities, and timelines
• Proven ability to evaluate SOC investigations and determine whether conclusions are valid, incomplete, or incorrect
• Strong investigative judgment and comfort making clear, evidence-based evaluations
• Fluent English communication skills, with strong written documentation ability
• Ability to work independently in a remote, project-based environment

Educational Background

• A degree in Cybersecurity, Computer Science, Information Security, Information Systems, Digital Forensics, or a related technical field is helpful
• Equivalent professional experience in SOC analysis, incident response, threat detection, or security investigation work is also highly relevant

Nice to Have

• Experience with Endpoint Detection & Response tools such as CrowdStrike Falcon, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, SentinelOne, or comparable platforms
• Experience analyzing cloud security logs and signals, including AWS CloudTrail, GuardDuty, Azure Activity Log, Microsoft Defender for Cloud, or GCP Cloud Audit Logs
• Familiarity with Identity & Access Management platforms such as Okta Identity Cloud or Microsoft Entra ID
• Experience with email security tools such as Proofpoint, Mimecast, or similar platforms
• SOC leadership, mentoring, or lead analyst experience
• Basic scripting experience with Python or comparable languages
• Security certifications such as GCIA, GCIH, GCED, Splunk certifications, Security+, CCNA, or cloud security certifications
