Ambitious Ethical Hacker wanted to drive real impact in Cybersecurity from Toronto.
Breaches don't wait for a convenient moment, and neither does the team hiring for this one.
This is a fast-moving cybersecurity startup building tools that help organisations find their weaknesses before criminals do.
The work is hands-on, the stakes are real, and an Ethical Hacker joining now will shape how the product actually defends people.
Here's what you'll be doing: Run penetration tests and vulnerability assessments across web applications, APIs and internal infrastructure Simulate real-world attacks to expose weaknesses before they become incidents Write clear, actionable reports that developers and non-technical stakeholders can both use Work directly with engineering to close gaps once you've found them Keep up with emerging threats, exploits and attacker techniques, then apply what you learn Help shape internal security policy as the company grows Here are the skills you'll need: A few years of hands-on experience in penetration testing or offensive security roles Solid grasp of OWASP Top 10, network protocols and common attack vectors Comfort with tools like Burp Suite, Metasploit, Nmap and scripting in Python or Bash A relevant certification (OSCP, CEH or similar) is a strong plus, not a hard requirement The ability to explain technical risk to people who aren't technical Judgement.
You'll often be the one deciding what matters and what can wait Key perks and benefits: C$57,000 to C$72,000, depending on experience Fully remote, with flexible working hours built around how you actually work best Equity in a company that's still early enough for it to mean something A genuine learning and development budget for courses, labs or conferences A flat structure where good ideas get heard regardless of title Why pursue a career in Cybersecurity?
Demand for skilled Ethical Hacker talent isn't slowing down.
Every company with a digital footprint now needs people who can think like attackers, and there simply aren't enough of them.
Toronto has become one of North America's genuine cybersecurity hubs, with a dense cluster of startups, scale-ups and financial institutions all competing for the same small pool of offensive security talent.
Get good at this work and the career options barely stop.
