6. Work closely with teams such as IT, Legal, Privacy, and Engineering to ensure cohesive and effective incident response strategies across the organization.

You’ll be great for this role if you have:

1. 6+ years of experience in SOC, Incident Response, or Threat Detection roles, with a solid understanding of incident response methodologies and tools.
2. In-depth knowledge of security technologies such as EDR, firewalls, cloud security tools, containers, and cloud platforms like AWS or GCP, particularly with services like CloudTrail and CloudWatch.
3. Proven experience in designing and implementing automation to improve security detection and response capabilities. Proficiency in scripting or programming languages is highly desirable.
4. Expertise in digital forensics and preserving evidence integrity, with a strong understanding of cybersecurity laws, regulations, and ethics.
5. A team-oriented approach with excellent relationship-building skills. Capable of sharing knowledge and expertise across teams to promote collaboration.

Why you should join SumUp:

1. Opportunity to work with SumUppers globally on large-scale fintech products used by millions of businesses worldwide.
2. Commitment to Diversity and Inclusion: Be part of a workplace that values and promotes diversity, fostering an inclusive environment where everyone's perspectives are respected and embraced.
