About Us:

Spiri Robotics develops and builds autonomous robotic systems, offering innovative solutions to complex challenges in science, industry, and government. Our flagship platform, the Spiri Mu, is an advanced autonomous robot designed to perform collaborative tasks in unstructured and dynamic environments. We draw from expertise in robotics, machine vision, human-machine interaction, and AI to deliver cutting-edge systems to both public and private clients.

As we grow our partnerships—including those with U.S. defense-related organizations—cybersecurity and regulatory compliance are becoming increasingly critical to our mission.

We are currently not yet compliant with the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS), NIST SP 800-171, Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC), or Canada’s Controlled Goods Program (CGP). Achieving and maintaining these standards is a top priority for our organization.

About the Role:

We are looking for a proactive and detail-oriented Cyber Security & Compliance Analyst to take a leading role in helping us reach compliance with CMMC, DFARS, CGP, and related frameworks. This is a foundational position where your work will directly shape our cybersecurity posture and regulatory readiness. You’ll work closely with leadership, development, and operations teams to build policies, processes, and systems from the ground up that meet rigorous national and international standards.

Key Responsibilities:

• Monitor and analyze system and network activity to detect and respond to cybersecurity threats
• Manage and maintain security tools (e.g., SIEM, endpoint protection, vulnerability scanners)
• Investigate and respond to security incidents in a timely and effective manner
• Lead efforts to implement and align practices with DFARS 252.204-7012, NIST 800-171, and CMMC
• Develop and support internal processes to meet Canada’s Controlled Goods Program (CGP) requirements.
• Conduct risk assessments, internal audits, and security gap analyses
• Maintain documentation and assist with external audits related to cybersecurity and compliance
• Collaborate with development, IT, and operations teams to integrate cybersecurity best practices into the product lifecycle
• Contribute to policy development, incident response planning, and security awareness training

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in Cybersecurity, Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field (or equivalent work experience)
• Minimum 3 years of experience in a cybersecurity or information security role
• Experience working with NIST 800-171, CMMC, DFARS, and security compliance frameworks
• Familiarity with Canada’s Controlled Goods Program (CGP) or willingness to learn its requirements
• Strong understanding of cybersecurity tools (e.g., Splunk, CrowdStrike, Tenable, endpoint detection)
• Knowledge of cloud and system security across Windows, Linux, AWS, and Azure environments
• Strong documentation, analytical, and communication skills
• Must be a Canadian citizen or permanent resident eligible for Reliability Status clearance and Controlled Goods screening

Preferred Qualifications:

• Industry certifications (e.g., Security+, CISSP, CEH, CISM)
• Experience supporting defense-related or government clients
• Familiarity with DevSecOps practices or the Secure Software Development Lifecycle (SSDLC)
• Experience preparing for CMMC readiness assessments or third-party audits

What We Offer:

• Opportunity to work on mission-critical cross-border projects
• Competitive salary and benefits package
• A collaborative, supportive team culture with direct access to leadership
• Ongoing professional development and growth opportunities
