This is an opportunity to work at the cutting edge of security operations, building self-optimizing defences that reduce manual workload, accelerate incident response, and make Vodafone Oman's security operations truly autonomous. We do not believe in siloing our security staff into only specific responsibilities so this person will have the opportunity to work and grow in all aspects of the cybersecurity program.

  • Design orchestration pipelines that enable autonomous decision-making in threat detection and response.
  • Implement advanced SOAR and SIEM integrations, ensuring seamless automation across environments.
  • Collaborate with security operations and engineering teams to identify opportunities for intelligent automation.
  • Continuously refine and test autonomous playbooks to adapt to evolving threats.
  • Ensure cloud-native security automation for Vodafone Oman's expanding digital footprint.
  • Stay ahead of emerging technologies in AI, SecOps, and automation to position Vodafone Oman at the forefront of security innovation.

Core competencies, knowledge and experience:

  • 1-3 years of experience in security operations, automation, or engineering roles.
  • Hands-on expertise with security automation/orchestration platforms (e.g., SOAR, XDR, SIEM integrations).
  • Experience applying AI/ML models for security analytics, anomaly detection, or predictive threat analysis.
  • Strong scripting and automation background (Python, PowerShell, etc.).
  • Familiarity with containerized/cloud-native security practices (Kubernetes, AWS, Azure, GCP).
  • Experience with log management and analytics platforms (ELK, Splunk, etc.).
  • Knowledge of GSMA standards, NIST, ISO 27001, and modern SecOps frameworks.
  • Understanding of global cyber threat landscape and automation-driven response strategies

Key performance indicators:

  • Reduction in Mean Time to Detect (MTTD) and Mean Time to Respond (MTTR).
  • % of incidents successfully handled by autonomous workflows.

Must have technical / professional qualifications:

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Cyber Security, Engineering, or equivalent.
  • Relevant security certifications (e.g., GMON, GCDA, OSDA, MITRE ATT&CK Defender, or similar).
  • Demonstrated experience in building automated scripts/tools for security.
  • Track record in cyber drills, CTF events, or projects showcasing AI/automation skills.
