Position Overview

As a Senior Security Engineer, you will provide senior-level expertise and advanced security analysis capabilities within our organization's security operations. Operating at a senior level, you will be a hands-on defender and attacker-mindset practitioner - running security monitoring, threat detection, and incident response, while proactively finding and closing gaps through vulnerability assessment and penetration testing. You will also apply that offensive mindset to the infrastructure you help secure: fine-tuning our SIEM, hardening cloud environments, implementing Zero Trust Architecture, and securing our CI/CD pipelines. You will champion an automation-first and AI-augmented mindset, using AI tooling and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) to scale detection, response, and testing across the board.

Note: This role operates on a hybrid schedule, requiring you to be in the downtown Vancouver office 1-3 days per week.

  • Ensure all incident tickets are assigned, tracked, and resolved in compliance with operations SLAs.
  • Improve alert signal-to-noise ratios and integrate external threat intel with security monitoring tools.
  • Regularly update and continuously improve threat detection use cases, using AI tools to assist in rapid rule generation and threat modeling.
  • Continuously fine-tune our SIEM to reduce false positives, leveraging ML/AI capabilities to ensure pertinent data sources are onboarded and adequately parsed.

• Offensive Security & Vulnerability Management
  • Plan and conduct internal penetration tests and vulnerability assessments across applications, networks, and cloud environments.
  • Demonstrate hands-on exploitation ability against common web vulnerabilities (e.g., SQL injection, XSS) to validate and clearly communicate findings - not just relying on scanner output.revised
  • Manually triage and identify complex or obfuscated attack patterns within raw log/SIEM data, beyond what pre-built alerts surface.revised
  • Perform red-team-style exercises and adversary simulation to validate detection and response capabilities, translating findings into concrete remediation and detection improvements.
  • Drive enterprise-wide vulnerability and configuration management, prioritizing and pushing remediation based on exploitability and business risk.revised
  • Coordinate and/or manage third-party penetration tests and bug bounty engagements, tracking findings through to closure.
  • Conduct structured threat modeling on new features, services, and architecture changes to proactively identify attack surfaces and prioritize testing and remediation.revised
  • Identify, assess, and mitigate emerging AI risks, with a specific focus on vulnerabilities related to cloud-based AI services and agent-based AI architectures.
• Security Engineering & Infrastructure Hardening - supporting skillset, not the primary focus
  • Manage and secure cloud environments, using cloud firewalls and endpoint/CSPM platforms, informed by findings from testing and monitoring.
  • Deploy and maintain Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA).
  • Administer edge protections, including DDoS mitigation, WAF, and CDN configurations.
  • Integrate and manage security within the CI/CD pipeline, including DAST, SAST, and SCA.

  • Secure user SaaS-based tools (Google Workspace, Atlassian, Slack), Mac-based MDM, and DNS/mail security.
• Automation, Documentation & Leadership
  • Continually leverage generative AI, scripting, and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) across all tasks - from incident triage to exploit/test tooling to playbook creation to reduce manual toil and scale security operations.
  • Manage the development of security documents, such as incident playbooks and security operations procedures.
  • Develop and exercise attack/defense playbooks (tabletop exercises, purple-team drills), keeping all security operations documents up to date.
  • Lead and mentor junior personnel within the security team.
• Skills & Experience Required
  • Strong written and verbal English communication skills, with a proven ability to break down intricate security risks and procedures for both technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Degree in information technology, computer science, cybersecurity, or a related field.
  • 5+ years of experience in security analysis, penetration testing, incident response, or a related field - with demonstrated hands-on offensive security experience (internal pentesting, red-teaming, or vulnerability research).
  • Demonstrated, hands-on ability to identify and exploit common web application vulnerabilities (e.g., SQL injection, XSS) in a live setting comfort working directly against a target, not just running automated tools.revised
  • Proven ability to manually read and interpret raw log/SIEM data to spot sophisticated or obfuscated attacker activity, not solely alert-driven triage.revised
  • OSCP required or in progress (or equivalent demonstrated offensive security capability); CISSP, CISM, or GCIH also valued.
  • AWS Security Certification or equivalent experience.
  • In-depth knowledge of security principles, attacker TTPs (e.g., MITRE ATT&CK), and common vulnerability classes (OWASP Top 10, etc.).
  • Strong understanding of network protocols, operating systems, and how to exploit and defend common misconfigurations.
  • Working knowledge of Infrastructure as Code (IaC), scripting/automation, and modern AI assistants to streamline security workflows, testing, and incident response fluent enough to assess and harden IaC, not necessarily its primary builder.
  • Familiarity with containerization and orchestration platforms (Kubernetes, Helm, Docker) and secure image/dependency management practices.
  • Knowledge of security frameworks and standards, such as NIST, ISO 27001, and CIS Controls.
  • Familiarity with regulatory requirements, such as PCI DSS and GDPR.
  • Practical experience applying structured threat modeling approaches to assess risk and prioritize security testing.revised
