The role
Build our future together
We’re looking for a hands-on leader to own the platforms that give our security teams visibility across the enterprise. You’ll lead a team supporting the Security Monitoring function. The team builds and maintains the Splunk log ingestion pipeline, RBAC, searches, reporting, and dashboards. It also supports the systems that feed our Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) platform, which correlates it all.
This is a player-coach role, roughly 50/50 technical work and team leadership. You’ll lead a mixed team of employees and vendor staff and act as the escalation point when monitoring platforms or security incidents need senior attention. You’ll also explain complex technical topics clearly to non-technical stakeholders.
At Regeneron, our SIEM has grown tremendously, and we support business functions beyond security, including Finance, IT, Manufacturing, and Research. We cautiously push the boundaries of the product, evaluating cutting-edge technology in our test environment and deploying capabilities that reshape how Regeneron and other users think about a SIEM.

Tips for Your Remote Security Analyst Job Search
Apply early to remote roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists remote security analyst openings from across the U.S. in one place. Check it regularly and apply directly to roles that match your skills and experience level before postings close.
Show async communication skills upfront
Remote security teams run on written communication. Use your cover letter and any take-home exercises to demonstrate clear, concise writing. Hiring managers for remote roles notice candidates who communicate well without back-and-forth prompting.
Build a documented home lab portfolio
Remote employers can't watch you work, so they rely on evidence. Document your home lab setups, capture-the-flag challenges, or personal vulnerability assessments in a GitHub repo or write-up to give hiring teams something concrete to evaluate.
Target remote-first and distributed-team employers
Companies built around distributed teams have remote security roles as a default, not an exception. Focus your search on remote-first tech firms and managed security service providers, where the tools, workflows, and culture are already designed for remote analysts.
Remote Security Analyst Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a remote security analyst job?
Target remote-first companies and distributed teams in tech, fintech, and healthcare, since those sectors post the most remote security analyst openings. Remote employers screen hard for self-direction, clear written communication, and hands-on skills like SIEM tools, vulnerability management, and incident response. Certifications such as Security+, CEH, or CISSP strengthen your case, and a home lab or documented project work signals you can operate independently from day one.
Which companies hire remote security analysts?
Remote security analyst roles are posted by Dexis, First Citizens Bank, and EMCOR and others right now, based on current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Remote-first technology firms, managed security service providers, and distributed teams in finance and healthcare are the most consistent sources of these openings.
Can you get a remote security analyst job with no experience?
Yes, but remote entry-level security analyst roles are harder to land because employers expect you to troubleshoot and escalate without someone nearby to ask. Smaller remote-first companies and managed security service providers are more likely to hire entry-level candidates. A home lab, a capture-the-flag portfolio, or a CompTIA Security+ certification shows you can work independently and gives hiring managers something concrete to evaluate.
Do you need a degree for remote security analyst jobs?
Not always. Many remote employers weigh certifications like Security+, CEH, or CISSP alongside or instead of a degree, especially when candidates can show real skills through a home lab, documented incident response work, or prior contract projects. A degree helps in government contracting and highly regulated sectors, but demonstrable technical ability moves applications forward at most remote-first firms.
Which industries hire the most remote security analysts?
Most remote security analyst openings sit in Technology & Software, Insurance, and Banking & Financial Services, per current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Those sectors rely on distributed teams protecting cloud infrastructure and sensitive data across multiple time zones, making remote security analysts a practical fit.
