Maybe it was the 18th breach-related credit-monitoring notification that started you down a research rabbit hole. Maybe you like the competitive nature of going against the world's best attackers. Maybe you like computers and protecting people and just realized there is a job that checks both of those boxes. One thing is for certain; you are set on becoming a cyber security analyst. You’ve read the blogs, watched tutorials, downloaded Wireshark and collected some network traffic, maybe even gotten a cert. Now it's time to join the fight!
90+% of data breaches begin with phishing, and our expanding Managed Phishing service sets out to keep our customers secure. If you want to help grow this team, and break into security analysis, we’d love to speak with you! A SOC Security Specialist position at Expel may be just what you’re looking for. Not only will you help our customers stay safe, you’ll learn how to think like an attacker, respond to real attacks, and be encouraged to innovate and solve problems. Surrounded by seasoned analysts, you’ll have no shortage of mentors eager to help you master the art.

What You Can Do For Expel (With the help of training, of course)
- Apply your real passion for information security at protecting our customers
- Participate in our 24x7 shift rotation: bad actors remain active throughout nights, weekends, and holidays so we’re always watching
- Be perpetually dissatisfied with the state of affairs, then help us get better
- Help us meaningfully impact the security of our customers' organizations
- Once we bring you up to speed, constantly experiment to find new ways of catching bad actors
What You Should Bring With You

- Knowledge of attack vectors, threat tactics, and attacker techniques
- Excellent analytical and prioritization skills- you can navigate competing priorities, spot the details most people don’t and ask for help when you need it
