Career Development and Certification Path Needed for a SOC Analyst

Could someone provide good advice for my career path? I’m currently working as a SOC Analyst, using tools like Jira, Proofpoint (for email security), Sumo Logic (SIEM), CrowdStrike Falcon (next-gen antivirus), and Zscaler (for web security). I have 1.6 years of experience but am not quite sure which certifications would best support my growth.

Which certifications should I do, and where can I find resources to prepare? Additionally, when would be a good time to consider switching jobs, and with 2 years of experience, what kind of salary increase might I expect?

Certifications like CompTIA Security+ or CEH are good for SOC Analysts. With 2 years, expect a 20-30% salary hike when switching jobs.
