Defensive Intelligence Professional
A rapidly growing technology organisation with a global footprint is expanding its capability to anticipate and respond to emerging threats.
This role sits at the intersection of research, analysis, and security operations. You'll be responsible for tracking attacker behaviour, generating actionable insights, and helping shape how the security function responds to threat activity.
* Monitor evolving threat activity and investigate patterns that could impact internal teams or customers.
* Produce intelligence reports, summaries, and briefings that offer clear, actionable recommendations.
* Work closely with detection engineers, analysts, and response teams to enhance visibility and investigation capability.
* Build and maintain profiles of active threat groups, including their behaviour, preferred tools, and operational patterns.
* Participate in intelligence-sharing channels and collaboration forums with trusted partners.
* Assist in integrating intelligence into defensive tooling and workflows.
* Conduct targeted threat hunts to validate hypotheses and uncover suspicious activity.
* Contribute to automation efforts to streamline common research and enrichment tasks.
Key qualifications include approximately 4-7 years of experience in cyber threat intelligence, research, SOC, incident response, or a related defensive role. A strong understanding of frameworks such as MITRE ATT&CK, kill chain, and structured threat modelling is essential. Experience with TI platforms or enrichment tools, comfortable analysing large datasets, and strong written communication skills are also required.
