Our Why 

Datacom works with organisations and communities across Australia and New Zealand to make a difference in people’s lives and help them to use the power of tech to innovate and grow. 

About the Role (Your Why)

We are seeking people passionate about getting into the Cybersecurity space but who more importantly have a strong Windows 10/11 and/or Microsoft Server background, such as a Systems Engineer, to join our amazing Cyber team here at Datacom. This opportunity for a technical problem-solver who is keen to make the next step into cybersecurity operations.

You will work under the guidance of a Cybersecurity Architect and collaborate with Datacom engineering and client teams to implement and maintain robust cybersecurity measures. The role is focused on endpoint security and will leverage your skills around the configuration of Windows endpoints, Microsoft Office365 and Active Directory via group policy, SCCM and Intune. As for your cyber skills, we can train you in any key security concepts that you may need to use in the role but don't currently have. Skills in such areas as scripting and automation would also be beneficial.

Our offices are based across the country. We like to bring people together in person when we can, but we are mindful of the benefits of working from home for work/life balance. We therefore leave it to you and the team you join to figure out what works best!
