Role Responsibilities
- Design, build, and maintain scalable data ingestion pipelines for onboarding security log sources into SIEM and cloud data platforms, including Azure Data Explorer and Log Analytics.
- Parse, normalize, transform, and enrich structured and unstructured log data using techniques such as regex, JSON parsing, schema mapping, and data validation.
- Partner with application owners, infrastructure teams, cloud teams, vendors, and security stakeholders to onboard new log sources and confirm end-to-end data flow.
- Validate log integrity, completeness, timeliness, and quality to ensure security telemetry is reliable and fit for monitoring, detection, response, and reporting use cases.
- Align onboarded data to organizational standards, schemas, naming conventions, and data governance expectations to support downstream analytics and automation.
- Troubleshoot ingestion, parsing, transformation, and pipeline issues across diverse log sources, platforms, and environments.
- Develop and maintain documentation for log onboarding procedures, data mappings, source requirements, pipeline configurations, and operational support processes.
- Collaborate with detection engineering and SOC teams to ensure onboarded logs support threat detection, investigation, response, and cyber risk visibility requirements.
- Conduct telemetry gap analysis to identify missing, incomplete, or underrepresented data sources and recommend onboarding priorities to improve security coverage.
- Support logging and data collection practices that align with regulatory, audit, compliance, retention, and integrity requirements.
- Improve ingestion frameworks, automation, and onboarding workflows to increase efficiency, repeatability, scalability, and cost effectiveness.
- Support infrastructure-as-code, scripting, and automation approaches where appropriate to streamline deployment and ongoing maintenance.
- Monitor pipeline performance and partner with stakeholders to optimize ingestion reliability, throughput, and cost efficiency.
- Stay current on emerging logging standards, telemetry formats, cybersecurity data engineering practices, and cloud security data platform capabilities.
Qualifications and Skills
- Minimum of 3 years of relevant experience in cybersecurity, data engineering, log management, security operations, or a related technology discipline.
- Hands-on experience onboarding, managing, and validating log sources in SIEM, cloud data platforms, or security analytics environments.
- Strong understanding of data parsing, normalization, transformation, and validation techniques, including regex, JSON, XML, CSV, and structured and unstructured data handling.
- Familiarity with common security telemetry sources, including network, endpoint, identity, application, cloud, and infrastructure logs.
- Experience with cloud platforms and associated logging, monitoring, and analytics services.
- Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving skills related to data pipelines, ingestion flows, schema issues, and data quality defects.
- Understanding of compliance and regulatory expectations related to logging, retention, auditability, and data integrity.
- Experience with scripting or automation tools such as Python, PowerShell, or similar technologies is preferred.
- Familiarity with query languages used to validate, investigate, and analyze ingested data.
- Ability to plan, coordinate, and execute onboarding efforts across multiple internal teams, vendors, and stakeholders.
- Ability to balance operational support responsibilities with project-based delivery and continuous improvement efforts.
- Strong attention to detail, commitment to data quality, and ownership of outcomes.
- Experience in broader cybersecurity disciplines, including threat detection, incident response, vulnerability management, or cloud security, is a plus.
- Ability to work effectively and collaboratively in a global team environment.
- Strong communication skills, sound judgment, and a high degree of accountability.
