You are a systems-savvy problem solver who thrives in fast-paced environments and brings hands-on experience restoring compromised systems and implementing remediation strategies.

You're comfortable collaborating with Digital Forensics and Incident Response (DFIR) teams, diagnosing problems quickly, and supporting clients with empathy and clear communication during urgent cyber events.

As a Consultant on the Restoration and Remediation (R&R) team, you'll contribute technical expertise during active incidents — helping clients recover from ransomware, malware infections, and breaches. You'll execute remediation tasks, restore systems, and collaborate with forensic analysts to support response efforts. Through meticulous remediation efforts and application of technical expertise, they'll help clients regain operational stability and strengthen their defenses against future threats

• Troubleshoot network issues and assist in resolving infrastructure-level connectivity or access problems
• Contribute to the collection of digital artifacts and forensic evidence, supporting broader incident response
• Apply foundational knowledge to investigate and address malware infections, unauthorized access, and system integrity issues
• Implement endpoint protection and access control tools under supervision from senior R&R team members
• Document all actions taken in a clear, structured format, capturing technical findings, decisions made, and lessons learned
• Participate in after-hours (on-call/weekend rotational) support when needed to ensure 24/7 incident response coverage

• Bachelor's degree in IT, Cybersecurity, Computer Science, or equivalent experience in technical support or IT administration roles
• Foundational knowledge of Windows, Linux, and MacOS environments and their security features
• Experience with firewalls, VPNs, Active Directory, Group Policy, Exchange, and common endpoint security tools
• Understanding of cyber incident impact, attacker techniques, and indicators of compromise (IOCs)
• Strong technical troubleshooting skills and a proactive, team-first attitude
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders
• Ability to manage competing tasks, adapt quickly to changing scenarios, and contribute in high-pressure situations

Expertise in all these areas is not required, but you should be excited by the opportunity to learn new things and comfortable with working with other team members to expand your knowledge base and experience.
