    Job description

    About Skillfield

    Skillfield is a specialist technology consultancy operating at the intersection of cyber, data and AI. We partner with enterprise clients to protect, transform and empower their organisations with forward‑thinking solutions. Our reputation is built on outcomes, not effort.

    The Opportunity

    Contract: 3 months, with potential to extend

    Hybrid, Melbourne

    Our client is growing their security and observability capability and we are looking for a Splunk Engineer consultant to help make it run cleanly. You'll own alert configuration, integrations, and data onboarding — working closely with security, infrastructure, and application teams so the environment stays visible and detections stay reliable.

    This is a good next step if you've got solid Splunk fundamentals and want to build deeper SIEM and integration experience in a real enterprise environment.

    What you'll do

    • Configure, maintain, and tune Splunk alerts and event-based detections
    • Build and support integrations between Splunk and platforms including ServiceNow, Microsoft Teams, email notification systems, security tools, and custom APIs
    • Onboard new log sources and manage data inputs, forwarders, and parsers
    • Tune alerts to cut false positives and lift detection quality
    • Build dashboards and support reporting needs
    • Troubleshoot ingestion, alerting, and integration issues
    • Test and validate new use cases and integrations
    • Document technical processes and operational procedures
    • Work alongside senior engineers and stakeholders to land project outcomes

    What you'll bring

    • Splunk experience
    • Solid understanding of Splunk Enterprise and/or Splunk Cloud
    • Experience building and managing alerts and scheduled searches
    • Working knowledge of SPL
    • Experience with APIs, webhooks, or automation-based integrations
    • Understanding of log management and SIEM concepts
    • Good troubleshooting instincts and clear communication

    Why join Skillfield?

    Be part of a team serious about doing work that matters Join a culture that values clarity, autonomy and shared success Enjoy flexibility, support and performance-based recognition
