General Position Summary:

The Security Analyst is a hands-on role within IT responsible for daily operation and continual improvement of the company’s security and privacy posture across on-prem and SaaS environments and global user base. This role focuses on monitoring and tuning a 13 tool security stack, detecting and responding to threats, and supporting growing regulatory and customer compliance demands (GDPR, PII, and industry frameworks.)

Roles And Responsibilities

Security Monitoring, Tools & Incident Response

• Monitor and manage alerts across a multi-tool ecosystem (e.g., MDR/XDR, email security, IDS/IPS, firewall, MDM, vulnerability scanner, DLP, password/privileged access tools, cloud security, backup/DR, and threat-intel feeds).
• Normalize, correlate, and tune alerts from 13 tools to reduce noise and focus on high-value events, maintaining clear runbooks for triage and escalation.
• Lead initial investigation and containment of incidents (phishing, malware, account compromise, ransomware, data exfiltration), coordinating with Helpdesk, systems engineer, and network architect as needed.
• Maintain case records, evidence, and post-incident reports that feed into continual improvement of rules, playbooks, and configurations.
  
  

Vulnerability, Configuration Management & Auditing

• Operate vulnerability management tools to scan servers, endpoints, network devices, and key applications; track remediation with system owners and prioritize based on business impact.
• Work with the technical architect/network engineer to implement and validate secure configurations, hardening baselines, network segmentation, and logging on firewalls, VPN, and other perimeter tools.
• Monitor vendor security advisories, CVEs, and threat bulletins and recommend patching or compensating controls for high-risk exposures.
• Audit work for IAM/access management, RBAC roles.
  
  

Tool Integration, Automation & Optimization

• Administer day-to-day operations of the security toolset: manage access, policies, rules, connectors, and integrations with infrastructure and identity platforms.
• Collaborate with IT to integrate security tools with ticketing, identity, and logging platforms, and help design lightweight automation/playbooks where supported (e.g., auto-quarantine, IP blocking, user notifications).
• Evaluate overlapping capabilities across the 13 tools and provide recommendations to simplify, consolidate, or better utilize existing investments.
  
  

Compliance, Privacy & Customer Demands

• Support implementation and ongoing operation of controls for GDPR, PII protection, and security frameworks (e.g., SOC 2-like controls, ISO/NIST-aligned practices as pursued by the business).
• Use SIEM and related tools for log retention, evidence gathering, and reporting to support audits, customer due-diligence requests, and data-privacy impact assessments.
• Maintain and update security documentation (asset lists, data flows, risk registers, control matrices, and tool inventories) to reflect the current environment.
• Participate in CAB process as appropriate.
  
  

Policies, Awareness & Support for Small Teams

• Contribute to security and privacy policies, standards, and procedures that are practical for a lean infrastructure team while meeting regulatory expectations. Evaluate and update IT policies as needed.
• Prepare targeted awareness content and simulations focusing on phishing, account security, data handling, and secure use of manufacturing/warehouse systems.
• Serve as a security point of contact for Helpdesk and application owners, providing guidance embedded into day-to-day processes and changes.
  
  

Required Qualifications

• Strong understanding of network and system fundamentals (Windows and virtualization, basic Linux, TCP/IP, DNS, routing, VPNs) and how attacks traverse these layers.
• Familiarity with data protection and privacy practices (GDPR and PII handling) and at least one security or compliance framework.
• Ability to use scripting or automation (PowerShell, Python, or similar) for log analysis, enrichment, and small workflow automations is preferred.
  
  

Required Soft Skills

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to interpret noisy alerts from many tools into clear, prioritized actions.
• Effective communication with both technical and non-technical stakeholders, including concise incident and risk reporting.
• Comfortable working in a lean team, balancing operational workload with project and improvement work, and taking ownership of issues from detection through closure.
• Independent thinker. Can operate independently within the guidance and priorities set by IT leadership and prioritizes production issues over administrative tasks.
