Job Description

Job Description

Senior Information Security Analyst
Location: Mississauga, ON (Onsite)
Reports to: Team Lead, Information Security

Compensation: $106,000 - $120,000

Role Summary

We are seeking a Senior Information Security Analyst with deep, handson experience across security operations, incident response, and data protection in enterprise, cloud, and SaaS environments. This role is responsible for defending the organization against advanced cyber threats while leading efforts to protect sensitive business, employee, and executive data across onpremise systems, cloud platforms, and collaboration tools such as Microsoft 365.

The Senior Analyst operates as a technical authority and trusted advisor, helping shape security detection, response, and data protection practices across the enterprise. This role goes beyond monitoring tools-it focuses on investigations, risk reduction, and building durable security controls that scale across modern hybrid IT and SaaS environments.

This position is fully onsite at our Mississauga, ON office.

What Success Looks Like in This Role

• Cyber incidents are detected early across network, endpoint, cloud, and SaaS platforms, investigated thoroughly, and closed decisively
• Sensitive data in email, file sharing, cloud storage, and business systems is protected by design-not discovered after an incident
• Security controls balance risk reduction without breaking productivity in platforms like Microsoft 365 and other SaaS tools
• Business and IT leaders understand cyber and data risk in clear, plain language
• Junior analysts get stronger because of your guidance, not despite it

• Act as an escalation point for complex or highimpact security incidents, including cloud security breaches and SaaS account takeovers
• Produce clear, defensible incident reports with evidence, root cause analysis, and corrective actions

Security Architecture & Project Enablement

• Embed security and data protection requirements into IT and businessled projects involving cloud, SaaS, and hybrid environments
• Identify risks introduced by new systems, integrations, SaaS vendors, cloud services, or workflows
• Recommend pragmatic remediation options, compensating controls, and secure design improvements
• Provide handson security architecture guidance for cloud services, SaaS platforms, and identitycentric solutions when needed

Governance, Risk & Compliance

• Contribute to security standards, policies, procedures, and technical guidelines related to cloud security, SaaS usage, identity, and data protection
• Perform and review technical risk and threat assessments for critical systems, including cloudhosted and SaaSbased services
• Support internal and external audits (e.g., PCI, ISO 27001, regulatory reviews)
• Define and track remediation plans through to closure

Tooling, Detection & Continuous Improvement

• Improve detection logic, alert quality, and investigation workflows across SIEM, EDR, email security, cloud security, and SaaS telemetry
• Evaluate new security tools and capabilities with a practical, outcomesfocused mindset
• Reduce noise, false positives, and manual effort where possible
• Stay current on emerging threats targeting cloud platforms, SaaS environments, identity systems, and collaboration tools

Leadership & Mentorship

• Act as a technical mentor to junior and intermediate analysts
