• Coordinate and communicate with external contacts, including members of the law enforcement community.
• Support the implementation of security and threat-intelligence programs across the organization.
• Prepare clear, concise security reports and threat assessments.
• Develop and deliver threat briefings to technical teams, business stakeholders, executives, and senior leadership.
• Assist with security-related projects and initiatives from planning through execution.

Required Qualifications

• 3+ years of Information Security experience, including direct exposure to incident response, security operations, or security investigations.
• Hands-on experience collecting and analyzing cyber threat intelligence from open and closed sources.
• Experience with threat hunting across hybrid environments.
• Experience analyzing security logs and events using SIEM platforms such as Splunk or similar technologies.
• Experience working with analytics and visualization tools such as Tableau or comparable platforms.
• Solid understanding of IT infrastructure, networking, systems, and security architectures.
• Previous experience supporting or managing projects.
• Demonstrated ability to translate complex security information into actionable intelligence.
• Experience preparing written security reports, assessments, or intelligence products.
• Strong presentation skills with experience delivering threat briefings to both technical and executive audiences.
• Excellent analytical, investigative, communication, and stakeholder-management skills.
