Perform continuous monitoring and triage of signalling security events in line with defined severity and escalation criteria.
Lead the analysis of unusual signalling patterns, behaviours and anomalies within the network, identifying potential SS7/Diameter abuse and responding to threats before network impact occurs.
Analyse known and emerging signalling attack techniques (e.g. interception, location tracking, routing manipulation, fraud enablement) and translate these into effective detection logic, analytics and investigative guidance.
Maintain expert knowledge of SS7/Diameter abuse patterns and translate this into detection logic, alerts and investigative guidance.
Feed lessons learned from incidents and intelligence back into preventative controls, dashboards and playbooks.
Raise and manage incident and remediation tickets (e.g. Remedy)
Manage enrichment of signalling telemetry (e.g. via Cribl coordinated through GitHub Enterprise).
Consume telecom specific threat intelligence and integrate insights into SigFW/SigIDS detections, playbooks and operational workflows.
Identify control gaps and propose enhancements to detection logic, SigFW policies and operational procedures to improve signalling security posture.
Act as a technical liaison between Cyber Defence and Network Engineering to influence signalling security policy, control design and operational effectiveness.

Experience working within an operational Cyber Defence or SOC environment, including incident triage and escalation.
Hands‑on experience in security event analysis and incident response, particularly within network or telecoms contexts.
Experience using security analytics and monitoring platforms such as Dynatrace, Splunk, Google SecOps and Tableau.
Understanding of telemetry pipelines, log enrichment, and data quality considerations (e.g. Syslog, Cribl or similar).
Ability to communicate complex technical findings clearly to both technical and non technical stakeholders.
Excellent verbal and written communication skills with the ability to articulate complex technical concepts clearly and concisely.
Highly disciplined and motivated, able to work independently, under direction or collaboratively as part of a wider team.
Strong understanding of security threats and abuse patterns relevant to telecommunications networks and signalling environments.
Bachelor’s degree in cyber security, Information Technology, Telecommunications Engineering, or a related field or equivalent professional experience.
