What you'll do



We are looking for a highly motivated and skilled forensic investigator to join our dynamic security team in Australia. Reporting to the CSIRT Manager, this individual contributor role is essential to the "Detect & Respond" function through in-depth digital forensic analysis and evidence preservation. You will identify root causes, support threat containment, and perform comprehensive threat hunting activities to bolster our security posture. The position requires strong technical expertise in forensic tools and the ability to communicate findings clearly to both technical and operational teams. Finally, the ideal candidate must be proactive, participate in an on-call rotation, and maintain a readiness to respond to urgent security events.

  • Identify security incidents through proactive "Hunting" operations within SIEM, EDR, and other relevant security tools

  • Collect, pre-process, capture, and preserve images and other forensic data artifacts, ensuring forensic soundness and integrity

  • Support and coordinate remediation efforts following security incidents

  • Resolve security incidents by identifying root causes and implementing solutions

  • Process massive datasets using specialized forensic software (e.g., FTK, EnCase, Autopsy, Magnet Forensics Axiom, Cellebrite UFED4PC, Physical Analyzer, Endpoint Inspector) to filter, de-duplicate, and prepare data for analysis

  • Perform data extraction and conversion for analysis in various forensic environments

  • Maintain data and documentation according to prescribed chain of custody protocols, ensuring the integrity of forensic evidence for internal analysis and potential external reporting

  • Regularly provide reporting and metrics on case work to the CSIRT leadership

  • Develop, maintain, and enforce standard operating procedures (SOPs) for security incident response and digital forensic processes

  • Research new techniques and tools to improve forensic capabilities and incident response efficiency

  • Create requirements and work with stakeholders to design, implement, and deploy security tools to enhance forensic and incident response capabilities

  • Potentially build and maintain robust data pipelines to automate and orchestrate forensic data ingestion and processing within the security ecosystem

  • Communicate technical processes and findings clearly and precisely to CSIRT members, security leadership, and other relevant internal stakeholders, including writing fact-based reports on forensic data analysis

  • Interface and connect with system owners, IT contacts, and other internal teams to pursue security incident response activities, including obtaining system access, digital artifact collection, and containment/remediation actions

  • Provide consultation and assessment on perceived security threats

  • Establish consultative relationships with internal stakeholders, guiding them toward best practices in data and evidence handling for security investigations
