What You'll Do
- Provide day-to-day technical direction and hands-on support to Security Analysts, working incidents and investigations directly alongside them
- Serve as the primary escalation point for complex security incidents and high-risk situations
- Own and drive compliance initiatives including HIPAA, SOC 2, cyber insurance requirements, and related frameworks — audits, documentation, and remediation tracking
- Conduct security assessments and help clients identify opportunities to reduce risk and improve security posture
- Advise clients on cybersecurity best practices, compliance requirements, and security strategy
- Own and optimize security platforms including Microsoft Defender, Entra ID, Huntress, email security, vulnerability management, and related tools

- Improve security processes, documentation standards, reporting, and operational efficiency
- Partner with Account Managers and leadership on security improvement opportunities
- Help evolve and expand Digacore's security services as client needs and threats change
- Mentor and guide Security Analysts on technical growth (light day-to-day coaching, not formal people management)
What You Bring
- 4+ years of hands-on cybersecurity experience in an MSP, MSSP, healthcare, regulated industry, or similar environment
- Direct experience supporting compliance programs (HIPAA, SOC 2, cyber insurance requirements, or similar frameworks) — audits, evidence gathering, remediation
- Strong technical depth in Microsoft security technologies, identity management, endpoint security, and incident response
- Comfortable being the senior technical hand on deck, not just directing others
- Experience conducting risk assessments and security reviews
- Strong troubleshooting, analytical, and decision-making skills

- Strong documentation habits and process-oriented mindset
