In short

Remote Pro Ai provides vetted SOC Analysts at L2 and L3, the senior tier that investigates, contains and hunts. They reconstruct full incident timelines, hunt across endpoint, identity and cloud telemetry, and write detection rules in KQL, SPL or Sigma.

Your SOC Analyst triages and investigates alerts with full timeline reconstruction, and writes and tunes detection rules (KQL, SPL, Sigma). Typical stack: Sentinel, Splunk, CrowdStrike, Elastic and Sigma.

Why teams are hiring this role now

AI is absorbing much of L1 alert triage, and L1 roles are declining as a result. Demand is concentrating on L2 and L3 analysts who investigate, make containment calls and write regulator-ready reports. Banks and government entities in the Gulf also face strict incident-reporting timelines that need experienced people on shift.

SOC Analyst hiring FAQ

Self-serve bookings receive a shortlist within 48 hours and enterprise requests get named candidates within 72 hours. After you approve a profile and sign, your specialist is working within 4 working days, whether the request is on the bench, off-bench or on-site. When fewer than 5 SOC Analyst profiles are on the bench, we shortlist from the wider vetted network in the same 48 hours.

Pricing is quotation-based and depends on level, hours and any on-site, clearance or data-residency needs. Current bands: Mid from USD 5,120/month · Senior from USD 6,730/month · Lead from USD 8,740/month. VAT is shown separately, quotes can be viewed in SAR, AED, USD or EUR, and every quotation is valid for 30 days. The Squad Builder shows your quote instantly.

Remote Pro Ai is contractually responsible for quality. Raise it at any time: a replacement starts within 4 working days; the full handover completes in under 14 days. Your first engagement also begins with a no-bill trial, one per company: 5 working days on self-serve bookings and 10 on enterprise contracts.

This role is offered at Mid, Senior and Lead level. We never place junior profiles. A practice lead confirms each specialist’s level through a live technical assessment and reference checks, so the band on your quotation reflects scope the person has already delivered rather than a job title on a CV.

Both. Add L2 or L3 analysts to your own SOC, or book a Managed SOC Pod: a SOC Lead, 4 L2/L3 analysts, a Detection Engineer and a Threat Hunter. The pod delivers 24/7 monitoring on Sentinel or Splunk, with shifts staffed from Cairo and Al-Khobar.

Microsoft Sentinel, Splunk and Elastic for SIEM, CrowdStrike and similar EDR platforms, Sigma for portable detections, and MISP and TheHive for intelligence and case management. Analysts adapt to your stack and runbooks instead of asking you to change tools. Query fluency in KQL and SPL is tested during vetting.

L2 analysts investigate escalated alerts, rebuild timelines and lead containment within defined SLAs. L3 analysts take the most complex incidents, hunt for threats that evaded detection and write or tune detection rules. Both produce incident reports fit for regulators and executives.

Yes, and we test it during vetting. Analysts document timeline, impact, root cause, containment and remediation in the format your regulator expects, and work to internal deadlines aligned with NCA, SAMA or NIS2 incident-notification obligations. Reports are written in English or Arabic, depending on the audience.
