What You’ll Do
- Remediate, monitor and triage alerts: Monitor the Security Queue, CW Automate, and security mailboxes. Classify and remediate general alerts, confirm business impact, create and assign tickets when required, escalate complex or critical alerts according to established procedures, and document every response and resolution in the ticketing system.
- CVE and vulnerability intake: Review security forums, message boards, community pages, and vendor press pages for imminent threats. Triage CVE vulnerability notifications by creating tickets and assigning them to NOC Analysts when necessary.
- Incident response: Identify the severity of each cyber incident, remediate standard incidents, and escalate major incidents to Expert Analysts according to the escalation process. During a major incident, provide support and guidance to the Tech Lead and Communicator. Complete a Security RCA for every standard and major cyber incident.
- Security tooling, standards and baselines: Help develop and regularly evaluate the Security Baseline for Northern Computer and all managed clients. Maintain efficient baseline auditing processes and security-product SOPs, complete semi-annual top-to-bottom security audits and remediate baseline issues, support security-tool deployments, and complete 60-day security check-ups following security projects.

- Cross-team collaboration: Work closely with the Service Desk and NOC, communicate issues and scheduling conflicts promptly, and collaborate with other departments during wider incidents and security changes.
- Automation and continuous improvement: Find and use efficient or automated methods for recurring work, automate alert resolution whenever practical, and proactively reduce, simplify, or eliminate end-user support requests.
- Additional company support: As requested by the Director of Central Services, assist the Service Desk, support internal IT operations, and participate in project-based security work. Provide after-hours and on-call support as scheduled.

- Documentation discipline: Clear ticket notes and postincident writeups; curiosity to turn fixes into repeatable standards.
- Education and professional development: A cybersecurity certificate, or a college or university certificate, diploma, or degree in cybersecurity or a related field, is preferred. You stay current on relevant threats, trends, tools, and security products.
