About Critical Path Security

Critical Path Security is a human-led cybersecurity services company delivering managed security operations, incident response, and advisory support for organizations that need trusted execution across IT and OT environments. We combine experienced analysts, real-world response expertise, and purpose-built visibility and detection capabilities to identify what matters, investigate quickly, and help clients act with confidence. More than a monitoring vendor, we operate as an extension of our clients' teams by bringing accountability, context, and follow-through to day-to-day detection and response. From managed SOC and incident response to penetration testing, vCISO leadership, compliance support, and security awareness, we help organizations strengthen resilience, reduce risk, and improve security outcomes over time.

The Role

Location Kennesaw, GA

Type Full-time

Target Start Q2 2026

This is a senior technical position responsible for the quality and maturity of CPS's managed security operations. You will serve as a Tier 3 escalation point, lead incident response for complex events, develop detection and response playbooks, and contribute to the operational processes that enable our SOC to scale.

The role is hands-on. You will work the SOC floor -- triaging, investigating, and responding to real threats across multi-tenant client environments -- while also contributing to the systems, processes, and documentation that make the entire team more effective. If you are the kind of analyst who sees a repetitive workflow and writes a script to fix it, you will thrive here.

This is an opportunity to help build a SOC operation at a company protecting critical infrastructure and other regulated customer verticals.

Responsibilities

Detection & Response (Primary)

Serve as Tier 3 escalation point for complex security incidents across multiple client environments
Lead incident response for confirmed compromises -- containment, eradication, root cause analysis, and post-incident reporting
Perform advanced alert triage and investigation across SIEM, EDR, and network telemetry
Conduct proactive threat hunting on a regular cadence using MITRE ATT&CK framework
Build, tune, and manage detection rules and correlation logic
Produce clear, client-facing incident reports, security recommendations, and posture assessments

Scripting, Automation & SOC Maturation

Capacity to write scripts in native, supported and vendor specific languages (i.e., Python, BASH, PowerShell, etc.) to support automation to reduce manual effort across triage, enrichment, and reporting workflows
Build and maintain SOAR playbooks to orchestrate response actions and improve incident handling efficiency
Develop and maintain runbooks, playbooks, and standard operating procedures for the SOC's most common alert types
Systematize and improve client reporting workflows (DSLRs, QBR deliverables)
Establish and track SOC performance metrics (MTTD, MTTR, false positive rate, SLA compliance)
Audit and refine existing SOPs to raise operational consistency

Mentorship & Client Engagement

Mentor and develop junior analysts -- raise the team's investigative capability and operational discipline
Participate in client-facing communications: incident briefings, security recommendations, and periodic reviews
Support customer onboarding and environment tuning for new engagements

What You Bring

Required

Requirement Detail

Experience 5+ years hands-on cybersecurity operations; 3+ years in a SOC environment at Tier 2/3 level

SIEM Hands-on proficiency with at least one major platform (Elastic/ELK preferred; Splunk, Sentinel, QRadar acceptable)

Detection Engineering Writes, tunes, and manages detection rules; familiarity with MITRE ATT&CK mapping

Incident Response Hands-on IR experience including evidence collection, containment, root cause analysis, and post-incident reporting

Python & Scripting Strong Python scripting -- builds parsers, API integrations, enrichment scripts, and automation for SOC workflows. PowerShell or Bash a plus.

SOAR Experience with SOAR platforms (Cortex XSOAR, Splunk SOAR, or Swimlane) -- has designed or maintained playbooks that automate triage, enrichment, or response workflows

Process Development Has built or significantly improved SOPs, playbooks, or runbooks in a previous role

Communication Strong written communication for client-facing deliverables; comfortable on customer calls

Work Style Self-directed; identifies and resolves problems without waiting for direction

Preferred

Prior MSSP or MDR experience (multi-tenant operations, SLA management)
OT/ICS security awareness (SCADA, Modbus, DNP3, Purdue Model, passive monitoring)
Experience with Zeek, Suricata, or network-level detection tools
Git/version control for playbook and script management
GCIH, GCIA, GCFA, CySA+, or OSCP certifications

What We Offer

Compensation Competitive base salary commensurate with experience

Benefits Health insurance, PTO, standard benefits package

Work Model 4 days on-site in Kennesaw, GA / 1 day remote

Growth Path Clear trajectory to SOC Lead or SOC Engineering Lead as we scale

Impact You will directly shape how the SOC operates; this is a build role, not a maintain role

Mission Protect critical infrastructure -- energy grids, water systems, manufacturing operations -- from real-world cyber threats

Critical Path Security is an equal opportunity employer. We welcome applications from all backgrounds and are committed to building a diverse, high-performing team.

Pay: $120,000.00 - $140,000.00 per year

Dental insurance

Vision insurance

Location:

Kennesaw, GA 30144 (Preferred)
