* Rebuild timelines of activity to identify origin and impact.
* Analyse unusual behaviour within cloud identity platforms.
* Create scripts or templates that reduce repetitive manual work.

Skills & Experience * 5-7+ years in threat response, SOC, or digital forensics.
* Strong understanding of attacker techniques and common toolsets.
* Experience with Windows/macOS environments and directory services.
