This is a full-time Manager, Security Operations Center role with a financial institution in the Langhorne, PA area. The first 90 days are onsite, then the schedule moves to hybrid. You will lead a SOC built around SIEM, SOAR, EDR, and threat intelligence platforms, protecting a regulated banking environment with ongoing audit and compliance requirements.
You will re-establish staffing models, shift schedules, escalation procedures, and operational standards, then build the detection, threat hunting, and reporting that sit on top of them. You will work directly with IT leadership and present SOC performance and risk to senior management, so you will have real input on how this function runs. If you have led a SOC before and want to rebuild one the right way, this is worth a conversation.
