SIEM Infrastructure Engineer Elastic

Proficio is an award-winning managed detection and response (MDR) services provider. We provide 24/7 security monitoring, investigation, alerting and response services to organizations in healthcare, financial services, manufacturing, retail and other industries. Proficio has been highlighted in Gartner’s Market Guide for Managed Detection and Response Services for the last three consecutive years. We have a track record of innovation. Proficio invented the concept of SOC-as-a-Service. We were the first MSSP to provide automated response services and the first in our space to provide a risk scoring dashboard.

 Our typical client is a medium to large-sized organization that lacks the in-house resources to address the challenges of a rapidly changing threat landscape. The difficulty of hiring and retaining cybersecurity professionals are widely understood but our prospective clients also struggle to effectively harness technology and build hardened processes.

 While Proficio has developed a unified service delivery platform designed to meet the needs of the most demanding clients, what sets us apart is the quality and passion of our people. We believe the SOC of the Future will meld the creativity of human intelligence with the power of advanced technologies like AI.

SUMMARY

The SIEM Infrastructure Engineer reports to our SIEM Infrastructure Engineering Manager and implements and maintains the architecture for our Elastic SIEM customer instances - predominantly in the US, but this role will also provide support globally as required. We are hiring customer-facing entry or mid-level individuals for this team who will be able to organize and drive multiple customer implementations and maintenance scenarios at once. 

• Our SIEM Infrastructure Engineers are security problem solvers!  They look at the SIEM Infrastructure and think “problem,” first, “tool set” second.  We are tasked today with utilizing the Elastic SIEM to enhance our customers’ security, but we see other products on the horizon.  We seek a security minded professional who is creative with their problem-solving skills, adaptable with their tool sets, but also proficient today in the Elastic SIEM product. 
• Ability to work in a team:  Our US SIEM Infrastructure Engineers do not work in a silo!  They are in front of our customers before and after the sales helping to determine needs, find solutions, and outline work to be done.  They are supported by a global team of Elastic Stack Architects, Admins and Developers who can execute and maintain the Elastic implementations we envision.  We seek individuals who are able to process leftover work from the previous shift, move work forward during their shift, and provide a streamlined handover of work to the subsequent shift. This takes a cohesive team effort, lone wolves are not allowed!
• Ability to work independently:  This is a remote position that services customers across the US.  We will hire where the talent lies, expect candidates to have a professional home office, and we will assume our staff are able to organize their customer interactions and workload so that progress is achieved with all customer accounts daily.
• We are doing great things!  We want enthusiastic Elastic SIEM professionals who can share our passion with customers.  Strong communication skills prior to contract execution will ensure our customers know exactly what to expect during the onboarding process.  Continuous relationship building throughout the implementation and maintenance phase will ensure our customers are receiving our best in class service for their cybersecurity needs!
