The costs and risks associated with complex projects like litigation, processing insurance claims, and conducting regulatory investigations are skyrocketing as the amount of data increases. TitanFile is transforming these processes so they can be done in minutes, not days, by anyone, anywhere.

TitanFile is looking for a Security Engineer who is personable, persistent, and confident. A person who is passionate about learning new technologies and improving the skills they already have. A person who wants their work to stand for something. A person able to juggle multiple priorities and work with minimal supervision.

This person will report to our CEO, who leads our security and compliance program, and will work closely with our Lead Architect and Infrastructure Manager and the engineering team. The role is largely hands-on security engineering combined with governance, risk, and compliance: finding and fixing weaknesses across our cloud platform and application, improving detection and incident response, and turning our security controls into automated, auditable evidence.

Our customers hold us to a high bar. TitanFile is SOC 2 Type 2 and ISO 27001 certified, and we are pursuing FedRAMP certification to serve the U.S. federal market. The right security engineer will be pragmatic, able to explain risk in plain language, and able to choose controls that protect our customers without slowing the business down. We expect our engineers to work fluently with AI tooling and to apply the same engineering judgment to what it produces as they would to their own work.

TitanFile offers an incredible opportunity for a Security Engineer to learn and grow, while being part of an awesome growing team in Toronto.

Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Information Security, or a related field, or equivalent experience
4 to 7 years of full-time experience in security engineering, cloud security, security operations, or a related role, including at least 2 years of hands-on security work in a cloud environment
Must be able and willing to lawfully work out of our Toronto, Ontario office on a hybrid schedule
Able to obtain and maintain Government of Canada security screening at the Secret Status level
Production experience securing AWS, including IAM, VPC, KMS, CloudTrail, GuardDuty, and Security Hub
Hands-on vulnerability management experience, including scanning tools, CVSS-based risk rating, and remediation tracking
Experience with logging, SIEM, or detection engineering, and with incident response
Proficiency in scripting and automation with Python and Bash
Solid Linux, networking, and cryptography fundamentals, including TLS, DNS, firewalls, and key management
Working knowledge of application security and the OWASP Top 10
Experience with infrastructure as code, ideally Terraform, and CI/CD pipelines, ideally GitLab CI
Experience supporting a compliance program such as SOC 2, ISO 27001, or FedRAMP, including control implementation and audit evidence
Fluent use of AI assistants to accelerate security analysis and automation, with the judgment to verify, test, and challenge what they produce
Fluent written and verbal communication in English, including explaining risk to non-technical audiences
