SOC Analyst, Tier 2

Remote CanadaFull-time · Permanent

About the role

The SOC covers a large Canadian client base around the clock. Tier 2 analysts are the investigation engine: working alerts through to a conclusion, handling confirmed incidents end to end, and tuning the detections that fire too often. Shifts rotate with a published schedule and shift premiums.

What you’ll do

  • Investigate and conclude Tier 2 alerts across SIEM and EDR tooling
  • Own confirmed incidents through containment and handover, with clear documentation
  • Tune noisy detections and propose new ones based on what you see
  • Mentor Tier 1 analysts and review their escalations
  • Write incident summaries a non-technical client contact can understand

What you bring

  • 2+ years in a SOC, including at least a year handling Tier 2 investigations
  • Solid SIEM experience (Splunk or Sentinel) and EDR (CrowdStrike, Defender, or similar)
  • Working knowledge of Windows and Linux logs, networking fundamentals, and MITRE ATT&CK
  • Security+, CySA+, GCIH, or equivalent — or experience that clearly covers it
  • Based in Canada, able to work rotating shifts including some weekends

What’s on offer

Base salary of $75,000–$95,000 depending on experience, plus shift premiums, benefits, and a certification budget. Fully remote within Canada. Permanent, full-time.
