· Continuous Improvement: Actively participate and propose ideas in investigations focused on key information gathering. Explore and test new monitoring and remediation tools.

· Documentation & Best Practices: Meticulously document all actions taken within incident management. Recommend improvements to GFC processes, procedures, and security policies of the area.

· Team Collaboration: Collaborate with local team members, external staff, and participate in the training of junior analysts and interns.
