About Mjolnir Security

Mjolnir Security is a Canadian MSSP and Digital Forensics & Incident Response firm serving enterprise clients across financial services, automotive retail, education, and other regulated sectors. We deliver managed security operations, incident response, and infrastructure services on Canadian-sovereign infrastructure. Our team is small, technically deep, and works real enterprise environments — not demos.

The Role

We're looking for an Infrastructure Support Engineer who combines solid sysadmin fundamentals with enough networking and security awareness to operate effectively in a security-focused environment. You'll support both internal infrastructure and client-facing engagements — provisioning and maintaining servers, configuring network infrastructure, managing identity and access environments, and lending hands-on technical support to SOC and DFIR operations when needed.

This is a generalist role with a security bent. You won't be a pure helpdesk and you won't be a pure security analyst — you'll be the person who keeps the infrastructure running, understands what's on the wire, and knows enough about how attacks work to support the people investigating them.

What You'll Do

Server & Systems Administration

• Provision, configure, and maintain Windows Server and Linux (Ubuntu/Debian/RHEL) environments across physical, virtual, and cloud-hosted infrastructure

• Manage Active Directory and domain controller environments: user/group/OU management, Group Policy, DNS, DHCP, and domain trust configurations

• Maintain server health: patching cycles, performance monitoring, backup verification, and capacity planning

• Build and maintain VM templates, deployment images, and standardized server configurations

• Support Microsoft 365 and Azure administration tasks including user lifecycle management, licence assignment, and basic Entra ID/Intune operations

Networking & Infrastructure

• Configure and maintain managed switches, VLANs, and inter-VLAN routing in enterprise environments

• Set up and manage SPAN/mirror ports for traffic capture and network monitoring — understanding why this matters in a security context, not just how to click through it

• Configure and support firewalls and perimeter security appliances: rule management, NAT, VPN tunnels, and access policies

• Troubleshoot layer 2/3 connectivity issues across wired and wireless environments

• Support secure remote access infrastructure and endpoint connectivity solutions

SOC & DFIR Support

• Assist SOC analysts with infrastructure-layer visibility: log source onboarding, agent deployment, network tap configuration, and sensor management

• Support DFIR engagements with evidence acquisition infrastructure: ensuring forensic workstations, write blockers, and acquisition environments are ready and documented

• Assist with endpoint agent deployment and management across client environments (EDR, logging, monitoring)

• Help configure and validate logging pipelines — ensuring the right events are captured, forwarded, and retained

• Maintain lab and investigation environments used for malware analysis and forensic examination

Client Infrastructure Support

• Serve as a technical resource on client-facing infrastructure engagements: server builds, network assessments, Active Directory reviews, and hardening projects

• Document client environment configurations accurately for use in security assessments and ongoing managed service delivery

• Support onboarding of new managed service clients: asset discovery, baseline configuration review, and monitoring integration

• Respond to client infrastructure issues escalated through the SOC or service desk

Documentation & Standards

• Maintain accurate and up-to-date runbooks, network diagrams, configuration records, and change logs

• Follow and contribute to internal build standards, hardening baselines, and configuration templates

• Document troubleshooting steps, resolution notes, and lessons learned in a manner that's useful to the next person

What You Bring

• 6+ years of hands-on sysadmin or infrastructure support experience in a professional environment

• Solid Windows Server administration: Active Directory, Group Policy, DNS/DHCP, domain controllers, and Windows event logging

• Comfortable Linux administration: CLI proficiency, service management, user/permission management, networking, and system hardening

• Working knowledge of managed switches and VLANs — you've configured SPAN/mirror ports before and understand what they're used for

• Experience configuring firewalls and understanding perimeter security concepts: rule sets, NAT, site-to-site VPN, and access control

• Familiarity with virtualization environments and VM management

• Microsoft 365 and basic Azure administration experience: user management, licensing, Entra ID (formerly Azure AD), and Intune

• Strong documentation habits — you leave environments better documented than you found them

• Calm under pressure: when something breaks at a client site or during an active incident, you focus on the problem

Assets That Will Set You Apart

• Experience in an MSP or MSSP environment where you managed multiple clients simultaneously

• Exposure to security tooling: SIEM log source configuration, EDR deployment, or network monitoring platforms

• Familiarity with network traffic analysis — understanding what normal looks like and what doesn't

• Scripting ability in PowerShell or Bash for automation of routine admin tasks

• Relevant certifications: CompTIA Network+, Security+, Microsoft certifications (AZ-104, MD-102), or equivalent

• Basic understanding of DFIR concepts — chain of custody, evidence handling, forensic acquisition workflows

Why Join Us

• Work across real enterprise client environments — Windows, Linux, hybrid cloud, on-premise networking — not a single-tenant internal IT role

• Exposure to security operations and DFIR workflows that most sysadmins never see from the inside

• Direct collaboration with DFIR specialists and SOC analysts — you'll develop a security mindset that makes you a significantly more valuable infrastructure professional

• Clear growth path toward a specialized Security Engineer or Detection Engineer role for those who want it

Location requirement: This is a strictly on-site role. Candidates must reside in the Greater Toronto Area and report to our Toronto office five days per week.
