The L1 Cyber Engineer is a junior level position. Working as part of a team the SOC Engineer’s primary role is to work on helpdesk tickets for our Managed Security Services (MSS) department.

The position is dual rolled, combining a Cyber Security Analyst and a Network Security Engineer at a junior level. This role will build a foundation across all aspects of MSS technologies, allowing for the candidate to develop their own career path within VirtualArmour.

We are seeking an L1 Cyber Engineer to join our MSS team in a Managed Security Service Provider (MSSP) environment. This role is focused on high-volume alert and ticket triage, customer-facing escalations, and first-level security investigations. The ideal candidate has strong foundational knowledge of SIEM, XDR, and EDR concepts, excellent communication skills, and the ability to follow playbooks while thinking critically under pressure.

Key Responsibilities

Monitor and triage security and network alerts from network monitoring, EDR/XDR, SIEM, and related security tooling; prioritize incidents based on risk and business impact.

Identify common attack patterns (phishing, malware execution, credential abuse, lateral movement, persistence indicators) and recommend next steps.
Escalate complex or high-severity incidents to Tier 2/IR with high-quality handoffs (evidence, hypotheses, affected entities, attempted actions).
Support ongoing investigations by collecting additional artifacts/logs, re-checking endpoints, and monitoring for recurrence.
Document findings clearly in the ticketing system, ensuring complete timelines, evidence, and actions taken.
Follow SOC runbooks, playbooks, and standard operating procedures (SOPs) consistently.
Participate in shift handovers and maintain accurate case notes to ensure continuity of operations.
Identify recurring false positives, detection gaps, and tuning opportunities; propose improvements to content/rules and playbooks.
Stay up to date on information technology trends and security standards.
Adhere to company-wide best practices for IT security.

Experience

Required

A strong desire to work in either Cyber security or Network security fields
Strong understanding of SIEM, XDR, and EDR fundamentals (telemetry types, detection logic, correlation, and response workflows).
Understanding of attack lifecycle concepts (MITRE ATT&CK basics, NIST, Lockhead Martin etc.).
Ability to analyze endpoint and security logs (Windows Event Logs concepts, process/parent-child relationships, network indicators).
Ability to demonstrate an understanding of IP protocols like DHCP, FTP/SFTP, HTTPS/HTTPS, TCP/UDP, SSH etc.
Strong written communication and ticket hygiene (clear summaries, evidence-based conclusions).
Comfort working in a 24x7 SOC environment and meeting SLA-driven targets.
Team player with strong collaboration skills and a flexible approach to problem solving.
