There's a full-time Associate Security Operations Engineer opening in Sector 15, Faridabad, on-site, with pay running up to ₹92,000 a month.
You'd join a security team that monitors company systems around the clock, catching threats early and handling them before they grow. It's associate-level, so you're not expected to arrive as a finished analyst, but two years of hands-on security work is the baseline the team is hiring against.
What the job actually involves
- Monitoring systems continuously for signs of unusual or malicious activity
- Investigating flagged incidents and responding before they escalate further
- Putting protective measures in place to keep company data secure day to day
A lot of the work is quiet, routine monitoring. Then something flags, and the pace shifts fast. Last week's alert might turn out to be a misconfigured backup job triggering a false positive, and the next one might be a genuine attempt to access a system that shouldn't be reachable from outside. Learning to tell those apart quickly, without either dismissing real threats or chasing every noisy alert, is a skill that develops on the job more than in training.
Who the team is looking for
A bachelor's degree is required, and the natural fit is something touching cybersecurity or broader IT, though the team weighs demonstrated skill heavily alongside the credential itself. Two years of relevant security experience rounds out the baseline. Beyond that, the role calls for genuine comfort with security monitoring tools, a working understanding of how to assess vulnerabilities, and enough exposure to incident response to know how a response actually unfolds once an alert turns real.
Core skills
- Hands-on experience with SIEM tools
- Automation scripting to reduce manual, repetitive monitoring work
- Incident response, from initial triage through resolution
- Networking fundamentals, since most incidents trace back to something happening at the network level
What would set an applicant apart
Naukri Mitra sees a fair number of applicants for security operations roles in Faridabad who've picked up a foundational certification like Security+ or GCIH, and it does tend to catch a recruiter's eye during review. Exposure to cloud security monitoring on AWS or Azure is genuinely useful as more infrastructure shifts off-premises, and any prior use of a threat intelligence platform would give a candidate a head start on how the team already operates.
Pay, hours, and where you'd sit
Compensation for this security operations engineer role in Faridabad runs up to ₹92,000 a month. The position is based on-site at the Sector 15 office, with no remote or hybrid arrangement. Security operations teams often run rotating shift coverage to maintain around-the-clock monitoring, so expect scheduling flexibility.
What comes with the role
- Health insurance
- Paid time off
- Provident fund contributions
- Relocation assistance for candidates moving to Faridabad
- Accommodation support during the move
For candidates relocating from another city, the accommodation piece tends to matter more in practice than it looks on paper, since finding housing near Sector 15 on a tight timeline isn't always straightforward.
Applying
Come ready to talk through a specific incident you've handled, what tipped you off, and how the response actually played out. That conversation tells the hiring team far more than a list of tools on a resume. We review applications on a rolling basis, and shortlisted candidates typically hear back within two weeks.
