IDRBT Wazuh SIEM Administrator Recruitment 2026: Overview

Institute for Development and Research in Banking Technology (IDRBT) is hiring Wazuh SIEM System Administrators and Associate System Administrators or System Software Engineers for its Cybersecurity and Security Operations Centre work. The assignment covers the complete lifecycle of an open-source SIEM and XDR platform, from architecture and deployment to continuous monitoring and maintenance. This is an operational security role with engineering depth: you will build the platform, connect endpoints and identity systems, and help analysts use it with carefully controlled access.

The environment brings together Wazuh, OpenSearch, endpoint agents, automation and a Nutanix private cloud. Your work will support security teams and auditors who need reliable logs, clear permissions and timely detection. Least-privilege access and platform health are central themes, so good administration here means understanding both infrastructure behaviour and security consequences.

Posts and Disciplines

  • Wazuh SIEM System Administrator: the senior profile owns platform architecture, high-availability central components, access design, integrations and security-monitoring controls.
  • Associate System Administrator or System Software Engineer: this profile supports agent onboarding, automation, routine platform maintenance, rule configuration and investigation of operational issues.

Post-wise Duties

Wazuh SIEM System Administrator

You will deploy and maintain the Wazuh server, indexer and dashboard, then make sure the cluster stays available and useful to security teams. The role includes designing fine-grained role-based access, defining internal users and policies, and linking the dashboard with enterprise identity providers.

You will also shape custom decoders, detection rules and active responses for the organisation's monitoring needs. File-integrity monitoring, vulnerability detection and security-configuration assessments are part of the platform controls you will maintain.

Associate System Administrator or System Software Engineer

You will help onboard and remotely manage Windows, Linux and Nutanix agents, using Ansible where it improves consistency. The work includes checking enrollment, log collection, certificate and firewall paths, and resolving communication problems between endpoints and the manager.

You may also monitor the Nutanix Acropolis private cloud through Prism Central and controller-VM health signals. Storage latency, capacity, processor and memory pressure, and replication health all need attention because they can affect SIEM availability.

Service Conditions and Caveats

  • Work arrangement: the official page describes the roles as full-time and on-site.
  • Access control: the platform must separate analyst, engineer and auditor permissions through role-based controls and central authentication.
  • Identity integration: the environment can involve Active Directory, LDAP, SAML, OIDC and Microsoft Entra ID.
  • Private-cloud scope: familiarity with Nutanix AHV is an advantage because the monitored estate includes on-premises virtual infrastructure.
  • Development support: IDRBT says it supports cybersecurity certifications, professional development and conference participation.

Responsibilities

  • Deploy and maintain Wazuh server, indexer and dashboard components
  • Onboard and manage endpoint agents across Windows, Linux and Nutanix systems
  • Configure role-based access, users, policies and enterprise identity integrations
  • Create and tune decoders, detection rules and active-response actions
  • Monitor file integrity, vulnerabilities and security-configuration compliance
  • Automate repeatable deployment and administration work with Ansible and scripts
  • Track platform, storage, processor, memory and controller-VM health
  • Prepare regular security-platform performance and health reports
