About the role

As a Senior MXDR Engineer, you are a true multitasker with both technical depth and strong communication skills. Deploying and maintaining MXDR solutions is your core responsibility - your "bread and butter." You assess customer needs, collaborate with stakeholders across organizational levels, and ensure their environments become safer and more resilient against threats. 

Your expertise is also a trusted resource within the team. Whether it's helping the SOC interpret the logging associated with a Splunk alert, troubleshooting CPU spikes of CrowdStrike agents during a DFIR engagement, or assisting SDM in interpreting technical questions - you’re the go-to person. 

This role requires a broad skill set. A major focus is on technical consultancy, meaning a strong technical foundation, professional communication skills, and a passion for continuous learning are essential. We’re looking for someone with experience with SIEM & EDR tools. We see MXDR as Microsoft Sentinel, Splunk, CrowdStrike or Sentinel One. Familiarity with these platforms is a strong plus. 

Because this is a customer-facing role, you should feel confident engaging with clients in both in-person and digital environments. As part of a global organization, proficiency in written and spoken English is a must.

Key Responsibilities

  • Implement and support MXDR solutions for customers, ensuring effective deployment and configuration. 
  • Independently operate in multidisciplinary teams for projects, proactively contributing to client deliverables and addressing internal and external technical and organizational challenges. 
  • Serve as a Subject Matter Expert on specific MXDR tools, supporting and advising customers and colleagues across teams. 
  • Continuously improve the MXDR services through automation, process enhancements and knowledge sharing.

  • Expert knowledge of cybersecurity and proficiency in one or multiple MXDR technologies. 
  • Demonstrated ability to analyze and interpret complex data. 
  • Strong leadership and communication skills.

Certifications:

  • Holder of at least one industry-recognized certification for example CISM, Splunk Certified Admin, relevant MS certificates, CompTIA. 

Benefits

  • Flexible working hours and hybrid working arrangements.
  • Competitive pension scheme.
  • 24 vacation days, 4 additional leave days for business closure, and 8% holiday allowance.
  • A company laptop and mobile phone.
