Cybersecurity Senior Consultant (SIEM Engineer) - Katowice

Location: Katowice – remote

Let us introduce you the job offer by EY GDS Poland – a member of the global integrated service delivery center network by EY.

We are delighted to extend an invitation for you to join the esteemed Cybersecurity Detection & Response (CDR) team within the GDS PL Consulting division. This pivotal role focuses on designing and optimizing detection, integration, and automation workflows within Splunk, alongside broader tooling across the enterprise.

You will not respond to incidents—you will prevent them by building the systems and frameworks that detect and respond autonomously. You’ll work upstream of Security Operations, enabling scalable, effective defense through expert engineering and collaboration.

The opportunity

As an integral part of our dynamic team, you will engage in a wide spectrum of project-based work encompassing areas such as design, deployment, consultancy, modifications, and incident response. It is imperative to acknowledge that the nature of these projects is highly diverse and will require a flexible mindset and readiness to adapt. Your involvement in these projects will be carefully considered, considering both your unique skill set and your openness to embrace varied assignments.

Your key responsibilities

As a valued member of the Cybersecurity Detection & Response team, you will be actively involved in a diverse array of projects, tailored to align with our clients' requirements as well as your professional expertise. Additionally, your participation will extend to contributing to the strategic development and expansion of the Cybersecurity Detection & Response (CDR) team.

To qualify for the role, you must have

• Strong experience with Splunk SIEM, including core architecture, deployment, and maintenance
• Good understanding of hybrid Splunk solutions and architecture (on-premises and cloud environments)
• Proficiency in designing, configuring, and tuning SIEM rules, analytic content, log source integrations, and supporting SIEM solution migrations
• Expertise in log onboarding, normalization, and parsing for diverse data sources
• Proven ability to build and maintain integrations between Splunk and third-party security tools
• Hands-on experience in building detection and response automation workflows using Splunk SOAR or equivalent tooling
• Strong skills in SPL and familiarity with custom dashboards or content development
• Excellent communication and consulting skills with a senior, autonomous mindset
• Proven track record of delivering in high-performance, agile security teams

Ideally, you’ll also have

• Experience with Splunk APIs and integrations with enterprise security tools
• Familiarity with MITRE ATT&CK and use case development frameworks
• Azure/AWS/GCP tooling familiarity from a SIEM and SOC integration perspective
• Preferably in possession of one of the relevant Splunk certifications (e.g. Splunk Enterprise Certified Admin, Architect, or Core Certified Power User); and industry standard certifications (e.g. CISSP, CCSP, CISM, GCIA)
• Knowledge of compliance and regulatory standards relevant to enterprise security
• Background in security engineering, threat detection, or hybrid/cloud security architecture
• Experience supporting or mentoring junior team members
