About Us

SKADI Cyber Defense Corporation is a Canadian cybersecurity startup building Frostbow, an autonomous security platform for defence and critical infrastructure environments.

Were a small, engaged team doing serious work in a space that matters. The problems are complex and the stakes are high, but the culture is collaborative, trusting, and genuinely fun. People here care about relationships, ask thoughtful questions, and enjoy building something meaningful together.

Youll be trusted, supported, and encouraged to bring your full thinking to the table. This is a place for people who are curious, ambitious, and energized by building long-term value, not quick wins.

The Role

We are hiring a

Marketing Manager to take real ownership of marketing for our defence sector work.

This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys building, not just overseeing. You will shape how we show up in the market, create the content that explains what we do and why it matters, and support business development as we grow. You will report directly to the Founder & CEO and work closely with leadership day-to-day.

If you are looking for a role where you can see the impact of your work quickly and help define how marketing operates, this is that role.

What You'll Actually Do

You will own marketing end-to-end. That includes setting direction, executing the work, and measuring whats working. We have early traction in the defence market, and what we need now is someone who can turn that traction into a repeatable, credible marketing engine.

• Brand and positioning :

Develop messaging that resonates with defence buyers and differentiates us from competitors.

Develop proposal templates, RFP response materials, and sales collateral.

What Were Looking For

Nice to Have

Work Environment

This role is based in our Bracebridge office and is predominantly in-person.

We believe in working together, being accessible, and collaborating in real time, especially given the nature of our work and security requirements. There is some flexibility for occasional remote work, but this is not a remote role. You will have autonomy in how you structure your day, but you should expect to be in the office regularly. Travel to conferences and industry events is part of the role.

This is a startup environment. Priorities shift, hats get swapped, and sometimes you will be asked to help outside a strict job description. Thats part of building something early.

Why This Role

You are joining SKADI at a pivotal point.

We have government-backed funding, early market traction, and a clear opportunity in the Canadian defence sector. You will be building the marketing function from the ground up and shaping how SKADI is seen in a market that is opening up to domestic cybersecurity vendors.

If you want to do meaningful work, have real influence, and grow alongside a company that is still being built, this role offers that.

SKADI Cyber Defence Corporation is committed to employment equity and encourages applications from all qualified individuals regardless of race, national or ethnic origin, colour, religion, sex, age, mental or physical disability, sexual orientation, or gender identity.

This is a search for an active role. We use AI-supported tools to help review applications and streamline parts of our hiring process. Final decisions are made by our hiring team, not by automated systems.
