* Prior operational experience leveraging threat intelligence to detect and respond to adversaries.


* A strong understanding of the current threat landscape including the latest tactics, tools, and procedures, common malware variants, and effective techniques for detecting this malicious activity.

* Team-oriented, possess a positive attitude and works well with others.


* Outstanding communication skills, both written and oral.
