Tasks

As a SOC Automation (Senior) Consultant (m/w/d) located in Germany, you will help customers modernize and scale their Security Operations Center (SOC) by designing, implementing and improving automation capabilities across detection, triage, investigation and response workflows. You understand that the SOC of today is no longer driven by SOAR alone, but by a combination of AI-assisted decision support, agentic execution models, deterministic workflows and strong operational governance.

You support customers in increasing efficiency, consistency and resilience in their security operations by combining the right level of automation with the right level of human oversight. You are able to translate operational SOC needs into sustainable automation strategies and practical implementations, covering not only tooling and playbooks, but also data quality, log onboarding, governance and lifecycle management.

You have strong communication and interpersonal skills, which enable you not only to understand requirements, but also to put these requirements into an implementation roadmap, explain it to customers and guarantee proper execution. You have an open and approachable mind, in line with NVISO's values.

Typical tasks include but are not limited to:

• Designing and implementing SOC automation solutions across detection, triage, investigation and response workflows;
• Helping customers evolve from traditional SOAR-centric approaches toward broader automation architectures that combine deterministic workflows, AI capabilities and analyst-in-the-loop decision making;
• Building, configuring and integrating automation platforms, case management workflows, orchestration capabilities and supporting services;
• Developing and maintaining playbooks, automations and integrations that support customer-specific use cases, processes and technology stacks;
• Defining higher-level automation patterns and reusable building blocks rather than only point solutions for individual use cases;
• Advising on governance for SOC automation, including ownership, testing, change management, exception handling, auditability and operational risk control;
• Participating in technical workshops with SOC management, engineers and analysts to capture functional and operational requirements and translate them into implementation plans;
• Helping customers identify where AI and agentic capabilities can add value in the SOC, while ensuring solutions r
