- Knowledge of threat intelligence methodologies, OSINT investigations and threat analysis techniques.
- Experience working with SIEM platforms, threat intelligence tools and security data sources.
- Strong understanding of networking, security principles and common attack frameworks such as MITRE ATT&CK.
- Excellent analytical, communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to present insights clearly.
