The opportunity

DataWave Corp needs an Information Security Specialist in Spokane Valley, WA who can context-switch between GIAC GSEC and Goal Setting without losing the plot or their patience. The offer reads simply — freelance, $71,000 - $108,000, 4 years, and a mid-level role where ownership is not a perk but the point.

Key Responsibilities

  • Work closely with data teams to surface insights from production systems
  • Catch the spirited-and-grounded SOC Operations regression in staging before it ever reaches Spokane Valley customers
  • Read the Goal Setting stack traces others skim past, and trace bugs to their root
  • Maintain and improve CI/CD infrastructure across WA engineering teams
  • Tune database queries and schemas for high-throughput DataWave Corp workloads

What You'll Bring

  • The self-awareness to know which problems are yours to solve
  • Ability to learn new technology systems quickly and apply them effectively
  • Fluency across Digital Forensics and SIEM, with strong opinions on both
  • A history of leaving technology processes better than you found them
  • Comfort with a DataWave Corp pace that rarely sits still
  • Ability to thrive both independently and as part of a tight-knit team

Quietly, from Spokane Valley, DataWave Corp has become the client-centric technology partner that WA's most demanding teams refuse to replace. New hires ship something real in week one, because we'd rather you learn by doing.

Get $71,000 - $108,000, get a mentor, get benefits, and get the freedom to grow your Digital Forensics without anyone watching the clock.

Freshly verified active, this mid-level Information Security Specialist position is accepting candidates now.

Reach out, walk us through your Snort, and let's see if DataWave Corp is your next stop.
