Junior Cybersecurity Engineer (all genders)

THE ROLE & THE TEAM

 

Security Incidents can cause a severe business impact on the organization. Therefore having strong and motivated Junior Cybersecurity Engineers on the 1st level is crucial for the SOC as they form the initial line of defense against cyber threats, often being the first to detect anomalies and potential attacks.

In this role, you will be working diligently on the 1st level to monitor, identify, investigate, and respond to security threats. Your passion for cybersecurity, combined with your ability to collaborate and communicate effectively, will be instrumental in maintaining the integrity of our digital assets.

Most of your time, you will work during core business hours but also regularly on-call outside of business hours and on weekends.
