Overview
- **About the company**
- ProofOps is a cybersecurity services company helping organizations across the
- UAE and Middle East strengthen their security posture through practical,
- outcome-driven programs.
- Our operations are built around real-world detection,
- investigation, and response—delivering measurable security outcomes for
- customers across multiple industries.
- We’re looking for a SOC Analyst (L2) with 3–5 years of hands-on experience who
- can confidently triage alerts, investigate incidents, and communicate findings
- with clarity and precision.
About The Role
As a SOC Analyst (L2), you will be responsible for validating and investigating
security alerts, correlating telemetry across multiple sources (SIEM/XDR/EDR,
network, cloud, identity, email), and driving incidents through closure with
strong evidence and documentation.
You’ll also contribute to continuous
improvement through detection tuning, enrichment, and proactive threat
hunting.
What You’ll Do
Monitor and triage alerts from SIEM/XDR/EDR and supporting security
telemetry; reduce noise through accurate validation.
Investigate suspicious activity across endpoint, network, identity, cloud,
and email signals; determine scope, impact, and severity.
Perform deeper analysis using relevant artifacts and logs (e.g., Windows
Event Logs/Sysmon, EDR telemetry, DNS/proxy/firewall logs, O365/Entra ID
logs where applicable).
Manage incidents end-to-end: build timelines, capture evidence, identify
IOCs/TTPs, and recommend containment and remediation actions.
Escalate high-severity cases to senior analysts/IR with complete context,
evidence, and clear next steps.
Produce customer-ready incident reports and shift handover notes with
high documentation quality.
Support ongoing SOC maturity: detection tuning, enrichment, playbook
improvement, and participation in threat hunting activities.What You’ll Need
Must-Have
3–5 years of SOC experience (MSSP/MDR or internal SOC) with real alert
triage and investigation responsibility.
Solid understanding of incident response lifecycle and investigation
methodology.
Strong fundamentals in Windows security and common attack paths (AD
basics), plus networking fundamentals (DNS, HTTP/TLS).
Experience working with SIEM/XDR and EDR tools and pivoting across
multiple log sources quickly.
Strong written and verbal communication skills with disciplined case
documentation.
Preferred (Nice-To-Haave)
Certifications such as CompTIA CySA+, BTLO, or equivalent.
Exposure to cloud and SaaS security telemetry (Microsoft 365, Entra
ID/Azure, AWS, Google Workspace).
Familiarity with threat intelligence enrichment (IOCs, TTPs, OSINT,
MISP/OpenCTI).
Basic scripting skills (PowerShell/Python) for investigation support and
automation.

Competitive compensation + performance growth: Strong base with
clear performance-based progression.
Training & certification budget: Support for blue-team training and
certifications (platform + investigation-focused).
Hands-on real incident exposure: Work on diverse environments and
