About the role
AI Digital is looking for an Information Security Specialist to take on a core operational role within our growing security team. Reporting directly to the Head of Security, you will take ownership of day-to-day execution across key operational domains—including endpoint protection, access management, vulnerability management, event monitoring, incident response, email security and employee awareness programs.
Responsibilities:
- Monitor MDM and EDR coverage: device inventory, policy compliance, gap identification, escalation to IT Ops.
- Triage EDR alerts: initial assessment, isolation where needed, escalation.
- Monitor inactive and privileged accounts across Google Workspace and key SaaS platforms.
- Track MFA coverage, maintain metrics, escalate deviations.
- Vulnerability Management.
- Assist with endpoint patching; notify IT Ops and DevOps on critical CVEs.
- Monitor baseline security alerts in Google Workspace and EDR; assist with event triage, escalation by severity, and log maintenance.
- Review phishing reports (analysis, email isolation, user notification) and manage blocking policies in Google Workspace.
- Administer KnowBe4: training modules, phishing simulations, department-level metrics.
- SaaS Vendor Management.
- Support security incident handling from the security team side: escalation, timeline tracking, incident log.
- Participate in the SOC 2 certification process.
- Help prepare responses to security sections of questionnaires from current and prospective clients.
Requirements
- 2–4 years in information security or a related field (IT, DevOps with a security focus).
- Hands-on experience working with SaaS platforms from a security or administration perspective.
- Understanding of core concepts: access management, vulnerability management, endpoint protection, event monitoring.
- Experience with MDM solutions.
- Experience with EDR.
- Ability to take on a task without a defined process and drive it to completion.
- Some processes will need to be built from scratch — we'll support you through that.
- Comfortable coordinating with cross-functional teams: setting requirements, following up on execution.
Nice to have:
- Google Workspace administration.
- Security awareness platforms (KnowBe4 or equivalent).
- Involvement in a SOC 2 or ISO 27001 certification process.
- Familiarity with CIS Controls or NIST CSF.
- Experience with process automation (scripting, API integrations, no-code/low-code tools).
What we offer:
- USD compensation that values your expertise.
- Work from anywhere: Fully remote to suit your lifestyle.
- 31 days of paid time off: 21 days of annual leave + 10 days of sick leave, because your health and work-life balance matter.
- Growth-focused environment: Access to learning resources and clear pathways for growth.
- Fun team events: Virtual cooking classes, yoga sessions, team quizzes and more.
- A culture of trust: We cut the red tape - results over rules always. Open talk, ownership and getting things done together.
