Security Operations Center (SOC) Analyst

📍 Cybersecurity | Analysis | Incident Response

You enjoy digging into what’s behind an alert—and stepping in when every minute matters.
When a security signal appears, you want to understand what’s really happening.
You enjoy investigating, qualifying threats, and responding with a structured, methodical approach.
And you want to grow in an environment where cybersecurity is concrete, hands-on, and constantly evolving. 

At ISM, we’re looking for a SOC Analyst to monitor, analyze, and protect the IT environments of multiple clients, working closely with internal teams and security experts. 

🚨 Your Impact

Here, you’re at the core of security detection and incident response. 

On a day-to-day basis, you will: 

• Monitor, analyze, and process security alerts from EDR/MDR platforms, antivirus solutions, dark web monitoring, and network devices 

• Detect, investigate, and respond to threats (account compromise, malware, abnormal activity, etc.) 

• Actively participate in incident response activities: mitigation, analysis, eradication, and recovery 

• Collaborate with multiple teams to help secure client environments 

• Work across multiple IT environments, allowing you to continuously face new cybersecurity challenges and expand your expertise 

• Respond to critical security incidents, sometimes outside regular business hours, when the situation requires it 

No everyday are the same. Every alert is a new scenario to analyze.

🧩 What You’ll Be Doing

• Take ownership of alerts generated by security and monitoring tools 

• Analyze suspicious events and assess their risk level 

• Contribute to incident response activities and security investigations 

• Review and assess vulnerability advisories (CVEs) from vendors such as Microsoft, Cisco, SonicWall, Dell, HP, and others 

• Proactively contribute to the improvement and evolution of security controls and tools 

• Perform post-incident analysis to identify improvement opportunities for clients 

• Collaborate with technical teams during remediation or mitigation efforts 

• Thoroughly document incidents, analyses, and procedures 

• Share your knowledge and contribute to the continuous growth of the SOC team 

🧠 Who we’re Looking For

• 3 to 5 years of experience in IT or cybersecurity 

• Experience in a multi-client environment 

• DEP in IT or DEC in Network and Security Management (or equivalent) 

• Strong interest in threat detection, analysis, and incident response 

• Excellent analytical skills with strong attention to detail, without losing sight of the bigger picture 

• Autonomous, disciplined, and proactive 

• Ability to handle pressure and manage multiple priorities simultaneously

• Available and committed to responding to major security incidents, including overtime when required
