Cyber Security Developer - LDG IT Security and Control

Cyber Security Developer

The Cyber Security Developer is responsible for designing, creating, monitoring and maintaining cyber security solutions that protect the Healthcare Service Providers (HSPs) across the South West Local Delivery Group (LDG).

This position works closely with many diverse and dynamic teams, including, but not limited to:

• Healthcare Service Providers (their leadership, IT/Security/Biomed teams and end users)
• LDG Governance Risk and Compliance (GRC) team
• LDG leadership
• Managed Security Service Providers (MSSPs)
• Ontario Health (OH)
• Federal departments (e. g. Canadian Centre for Cybersecurity)

The core mission of the Cyber Security Developer is to extend, connect, and automate the security ecosystem.

Rather than simply configuring off‑the‑shelf tools, the developer writes code to make those tools work together, fills gaps where commercial products fall short, and builds internal platforms that empower the broader security team.

The Cyber Security Developer works to continuously improve the security posture/maturity across HSPs and collaborate with other LDGs, the province and federal agencies to collectively defend the public sector.

• Manage the security data and analytics platform, including data ingestion/parsing/enrichment, pipeline/query/storage optimization, detection engineering (rules, correlations, alerting), and analytics.
