Overview:
We are recruiting a Senior Security Platform Consultant for a six-month consulting engagement supporting a large Canadian enterprise. This opportunity is suited to a senior security professional who enjoys working directly with enterprise SIEM platforms, security data and security operations teams rather than operating exclusively in an advisory capacity. The environment is primarily based on Elastic Security, although candidates with significant Splunk experience are encouraged to apply. For the right consultant, Elastic training and certification can be provided.
What you will be doing:
You will join the customer's technical team and contribute to the continued development and operation of its Managed Security Service Provider offering and Security Centre of Excellence. The environment includes a multi-tenant security analytics/SIEM platform. Your work will span platform configuration, security-data onboarding, integrations, detection use cases, troubleshooting and technical support.
Responsibilities will include:
Configure, support and evolve an enterprise SIEM/security analytics platform
Onboard security data sources and new environments
Develop and maintain security use cases, searches and queries
Create dashboards, detections and alerts
Support log ingestion, parsing and normalization
Configure and troubleshoot security integrations
Investigate complex platform, integration and data issues
Support platform upgrades and configuration changes
Work with security, infrastructure and other technical teams
Act as a senior technical escalation resource when required
Produce technical documentation and provide knowledge transfer
Adapt to changing priorities within an active enterprise security environment
What you must have:
You have senior-level experience working with Splunk, Elastic or a comparable enterprise SIEM/security platform, combined with a strong understanding of security operations. We are particularly interested in experience with:
Elastic Security and/or Splunk
SIEM engineering and administration
Security operations and SOC environments
Log and security-data ingestion
Data parsing and normalization
Security platform integrations
Detection/security use-case development
Searches and query languages
Dashboards and alerting

Salary/Rate Range: $110.00 to $120.00/hour (Qualified consultants)
Other Information:
Contract Term: 6 months
Start: ASAP
Security clearance: Government of Canada Secret Level II —Mandatory security requirement. Applicants must already possess a valid Government of Canada Secret Level II security clearance. This requirement cannot be substituted by eligibility to obtain a clearance.
