- Integrate Sentinel with client-specific third-party tools, threat intelligence feeds, and Microsoft Defender products.
- Conduct regular platform health checks, capacity reviews, and performance tuning across the client portfolio.
- Work closely with SOC Analysts to refine detection logic, reduce false positives, and ensure alert fidelity for each client.
- Onboard new clients onto the Sentinel platform, managing the full technical onboarding lifecycle from scoping through to go-live.
- Produce and maintain client-facing technical documentation, onboarding guides, and configuration records.
- Support clients during audits and compliance reviews by providing relevant SIEM data and configuration evidence.
