Senior Security Data Analyst

I’m working with a client who’s deep in SOC modernisation and log rationalisation, and they’re looking for a Security Data Analyst contractor who genuinely knows their way around security data pipelines.

This role sits right at the intersection of SIEM, data engineering, and next-gen SOC design.

What you’ll be doing

• Designing and building modern security data pipelines, with Cribl as a core component

• Rationalising logs to reduce noise, cost, and pain for SOC teams

• Working across SIEM and Security Data Lakes (Splunk, Sentinel, AWS Security Lake, Snowflake, Fabric)

• Supporting SOC onboarding projects end-to-end, from ingestion through to SOAR and case management

• Helping organisations future-proof how they ingest, enrich, search, and analyse security data

What they’re looking for

• Strong hands-on SIEM and security data engineering experience

• Proven, hands-on Cribl experience is a must (candidates without this won’t be considered)

• Real exposure to log ingestion, parsing, enrichment, and suppression strategies

• Comfort working across cloud environments (AWS, Azure, GCP)

• A senior specialist who can design solutions, not just operate tools

Logistics

• Fully remote contract role, working anywhere along the east coast of Australia

• Australian citizenship is required

• Active NV1 security clearance or higher

This is a 12 month contract that has the likelihood to extend

If you’ve been wanting to move away from alert babysitting and into proper security data engineering, this is worth a chat.

Please apply to this role if you think you are a strong match.
