  • Initiate phone calls for P1 incidents, ensuring immediate customer communication and coordination during critical events
  • Liaise with customers during incident response, providing updates, gathering context, and ensuring transparency throughout the process
  • Maintain SLA compliance by promptly responding to alerts, especially high-priority (P1/P2) cases, to meet contractual obligations

  • Support Customer Success Managers with client-facing security queries, providing technical insights and support during engagements
  • Execute containment playbooks via Google SecOps SOAR for low-level incidents, such as isolating endpoints or blocking malicious IPs
