Job Description

Looking to grow your cybersecurity career with a fast-rising fintech company? Korapay is currently hiring a Security Operations Center (SOC) Analyst to join its remote Information Security team in Nigeria. This is a great opportunity for cybersecurity professionals who enjoy threat detection, incident response, and working in a fast-paced digital environment.

What You’ll Do

  • Monitor and analyze security alerts across SIEM, EDR, firewalls, IDS/IPS, and cloud tools
  • Investigate cybersecurity threats including phishing, malware, and unauthorized access
  • Perform threat hunting and vulnerability management activities
  • Support incident response, remediation, and post-incident reviews
  • Collaborate with IT and Engineering teams to strengthen security controls
  • Prepare SOC reports, dashboards, and incident documentation
  • Help improve detection rules and response playbooks

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s Degree in Cybersecurity, IT, or related field
  • 2–4 years experience in SOC, cybersecurity, or IT security roles
  • Hands-on experience with tools like Splunk, QRadar, CrowdStrike, Defender, or similar
  • Good understanding of network security, attack vectors, and incident response
  • Knowledge of frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK, NIST, or ISO 27001
  • Scripting skills (Python, Bash, or PowerShell) are an added advantage
  • Strong analytical, communication, and problem-solving skills

Benefits

  • Remote and flexible work style
  • Health insurance
  • Paid leave and parental leave
  • Sponsored cybersecurity training
  • Low-interest loans
  • Birthday off
  • Access to therapy sessions monthly
  • Collaborative and supportive work culture

Why This Role Stands Out

Korapay is one of Africa’s growing fintech companies focused on breaking digital payment barriers across the continent. If you’re passionate about cybersecurity and want to work with a high-performing remote team, this role offers strong growth potential and exposure to real-world security operations.

Application Deadline: Not Specified.
