RedWolf Security
Toronto
We are so excited you are here! We are Red Wolf Security; a provider of the most comprehensive, protected and feature rich threat simulation platform available for enterprise.
Our mission is to help organizations test and improve their cyber security resiliency in a thorough and reliable way.
We love the security tech world, but true passion is providing the best experience possible for our clients.
We are a hybrid team, working within a shared office space 3 days a week. We stay connected through our weekly connection points and use our project management software (Jira). We don’t just work for our clients, we are invested in their needs and results.
We’re looking for a Security Consultant that has an extroverted personality and is able to empathize with customers to drive successful customer experience outcomes. This individual knows tech security and is keen to make an impact on the business of our customers. They want to see their work impacting clients and they like to work autonomously with a team backing them up.
This role leads and executes security testing projects including DDoS assessments, methodology development, security advisory and research. As a part of our Delivery Team, our Security Consultants work closely with Partners, Customer Operations Team as well as Vendors.
Role overview
RedWolf Security is building a team of Security Consultants who help customers understand, test, and strengthen the resilience of important systems. You will work with experienced delivery leads and customer technical teams on DDoS testing, security advisory, platform enablement, and practical delivery work.
We are not looking for one person who already does every part of every engagement. We are looking for people who are genuinely strong in several areas, care about doing careful work, and want to grow with an experienced team. If you read some of the areas below and think “I can do that,” we want to hear from you.
Team and reporting structure
You will report to our Delivery Manager and work alongside senior delivery leads, engineers, and customer stakeholders. You will initially support projects and take on broader responsibility as your experience and confidence grow
Find your place in the team
Our consultants have complementary strengths. We are looking for meaningful strength in at least three of these six areas. You do not need to be an expert in all six; the team works together, and we will help you deepen the areas that are new to you.
1. Engagement orchestration and delivery discipline; The organised operator who keeps an engagement moving and makes the customer clear on what is happening next.
- Coordinate delivery work, maintain project clarity, sequence prerequisites, support readiness, and protect customer expectations.
2. Client and partner knowledge elicitation: The interviewer and knowledge builder who can get an accurate picture from other people's experts.
- Run focused discovery conversations, understand ownership and controls, distinguish confirmed facts from assumptions, and preserve what the team learns.
3. Technical reconnaissance and target profiling: The protocol and scanning person who is curious about what an endpoint reveals and what it does not.
- Perform authorised target profiling, understand exposure and traffic paths, and turn observations into the right questions for the customer.
4. Offensive testing craft and execution: The offensive practitioner who wants to run meaningful tests and has judgement about how hard to push.
- Help design and execute DDoS and resilience scenarios tied to real objectives and controls, including safe exercise support under the agreed authority.
5. Defensive architecture and observability knowledge: The architectural, cloud, control, or defensive person who can picture defence in depth.
- Understand how protections work across layers, what can be seen through metrics and alerts, and how vendor or cloud implementations realise common patterns.
6. Teaching, facilitation and client communication: The trainer and explainer who can hold a room and make difficult material understandable.
- Train customers on our platform and methodology, facilitate useful sessions, write clear material, and communicate at both technical and executive altitude.
Technical skills and experience we value
- DDoS, offensive testing, and protocol knowledge: DDoS attack patterns, resilience testing, penetration testing, red-team work, incident response, TCP, UDP, HTTP, TLS, and Layer 7 behaviour.
- Defensive controls, cloud, and observability: cloud infrastructure, CDN, WAF, DDoS protection, firewall, load-balancing, DNS, ISP, monitoring, metrics, events, and alerts.
- Reconnaissance and systems understanding: target profiling, network or application traffic-path analysis, external-service exposure, and translating technical evidence into questions.
- Customer delivery and knowledge capture: structured project coordination, evidence capture, technical discovery, facilitation, customer training, technical writing, and report contribution.
- Multi-vendor reasoning: recognising the common security patterns that sit beneath different vendor terminology and product implementations.
Required qualifications
- Meaningful strength in at least three of the six areas above. You do not need to be an expert in all of them.
- Clear, organised communication with customers and technical colleagues.
- Respect for safe, authorised, method-led work; you raise uncertainty and risk early rather than improvising.
- Intellectual honesty about what you know and what you need to learn.
Preferred qualifications
- Security, networking, systems, or technical-delivery foundations, with an appetite to keep learning.
- Experience in one or more of the technical skill groups above.
- Experience teaching technical material or facilitating customer and partner sessions.
Compensation and benefits
- Expected base salary: $100,000 to $150,000 CAD, depending on experience and breadth of relevant capability.
- Health benefits: vision, dental, paramedical and prescription coverage. Insurances including Life, AD&D; and LTD
- Paid time off: 3 to 5 weeks annually.
- Sick leave: paid sick leave.
- Hybrid work: work from home with in-office collaboration.
- Professional development: training, certification, and conference support.
- Flexible hours: flexible start and end times where business permits.
How we measure success
- You help projects become clearer, safer, and easier to move forward.
- You make customer conversations and technical evidence more useful for the people who need them.
- You grow into broader ownership without compromising safety, method, or trust.
- You leave knowledge behind that makes customers and teammates more capable.
Hiring process Our process includes an introductory conversation, structured discussion of your relevant strengths, and practical conversations with delivery leadership.
