Job description

Our client is looking for a Cyber Security Specialist who will be responsible for supporting and strengthening their overall cyber security posture through the implementation and monitoring of advanced security controls across on-prem and cloud environments. This role will ensure compliance with industry-specific security frameworks and standards while proactively identifying and mitigating cybersecurity risks. This is a contract role and must be on-site full-time.

Your Success Will Be Defined By Your Ability To

• Detailed security incident investigation reports and post-incident lessons-learned documentation for any cybersecurity incidents.
• Regular vulnerability scan results and remediation tracking reports (utilizing Tenable One) to communicate risk levels and progress to stakeholders.
• Periodic security posture and compliance reports, including Azure Secure Score dashboards and other metrics, to inform management of the current state and improvements over time.
• Documentation demonstrating alignment of security controls with NIST CSF, ISO 27001, and applicable CSA standards, to support regulatory audits and internal compliance requirements.
• Up-to-date cybersecurity artifacts such as security policy documents, standard operating procedures, network diagrams, and system security plans for nuclear-related projects and systems.
  
  

Your strengths include:

• University degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Information Security or a related field; an equivalent combination of education and extensive professional experience in cybersecurity will be considered.
• At least 5 years of hands-on experience in IT security or cybersecurity operations, including involvement in security monitoring and incident response.
• One or more relevant professional security certifications are strongly desired – for example:
• CISSP (Certified Information Systems Security Professional),
• CISM (Certified Information Security Manager),
• GIAC certifications (SANS Institute),
• or vendor-specific credentials such as Microsoft Certified: Azure Security Engineer Associate. These certifications demonstrate a depth of knowledge and commitment to ongoing professional development.
• Proven experience with cloud and enterprise security technologies – specifically Microsoft Azure, Microsoft Defender suite, Microsoft Sentinel (SIEM), and vulnerability management platforms (such as Tenable One).
• Demonstrated ability to configure and use these tools for threat detection, analysis, and automated response.
• Proficiency in PowerShell, JSON, Kusto Query (KQL), Logic Apps, or a similar language.
• Strong familiarity with industry cybersecurity frameworks and standards (e.g. NIST Cybersecurity Framework, ISO/IEC 27001/27002, and relevant CSA security standards).
• Knowledge of incident response methodologies and best practices for handling and managing cybersecurity incidents.
• Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to assess complex systems for security risks.
• Capable of analyzing system logs, alerts, and forensic data across various sources (network, endpoint, cloud) to identify and resolve security issues.
• Must be eligible to obtain and maintain a Government of Canada Level II (Secret) Security Clearance. This requires a comprehensive background check; the candidate must possess the personal reliability and integrity to meet federal security screening requirements. (Ref: Levels of security - Canada.ca)
• Experience working in highly regulated or critical infrastructure environments (energy utilities, nuclear industry, etc.) is an asset.
• Familiarity with the unique cybersecurity challenges and regulatory requirements of industrial or power systems (including SCADA/ICS environments) will be beneficial.
• Strong verbal and written communication skills with an ability to articulate cybersecurity risks and strategies to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Proven ability to work effectively in a collaborative team environment, contributing to collective goals and mentoring others in best practices.
