A&M's Forensic Technology Services (FTS) team consists of senior forensic technologists, data analytics, cybersecurity and privacy experts, lawyers, and investigators from various backgrounds who bring and share their extensive expertise in conducting investigations, delivering expert witness reports, providing forensic technology services and supporting teams with eDiscovery matters.

About the Role:

We are interested in hearing from people who have experience in a variety of areas such as Digital Forensics, eDiscovery, Incident Response, Data Analytics, Litigation support and Information Security.

As part of our FTS team, you will support clients and internal stakeholders throughout the forensic data lifecycle—leveraging cutting-edge technology to uncover, manage, and interpret data-based evidence in contentious legal, regulatory, and investigative situations.

Working across a range of complex and high-stakes projects—including disputes, white-collar crime investigations, and post-acquisition matters—you will play a hands-on role in processing digital evidence, performing forensic analysis, and helping clients resolve sensitive issues.

This is a unique opportunity to work across multiple industries and jurisdictions, applying your technical expertise in a dynamic, fast-paced, and purpose-driven environment. Key responsibilities can include:

  • Maintaining data integrity through proper documentation and chain-of-custody procedures.
  • Completing all aspects of the eDiscovery lifecycle including managing the collection, processing, review, and production of electronically stored information.
  • Providing document review and investigation support for external clients and internal teams for tasks including hyperlinking indexes, data extraction and bundling.
  • Responding to incidents and analysing digital artifacts to uncover user behaviour and system activity (e.g., file manipulation, USB usage, browser history, chat logs, cryptocurrency transactions)
  • Drafting technical reports and summaries for legal teams and clients


We are interested in hearing from people who have:

  • Experience in digital forensics, cybersecurity, or eDiscovery within a client-facing professional services environment
  • Understanding of forensic principles and the Electronic Discovery Reference Model (EDRM)
  • Experience in the use of eDiscovery platforms such as Nuix Discover, Relativity, Reveal or similar
  • Experience in forensic collection and preservation of structured and unstructured data from endpoints, cloud platforms, mobile devices, and social media
  • Hands-on expertise with forensic tools such as Nuix Workstation, Magnet AXIOM, Cellebrite UFED, Cellebrite Physical Analyzer, and GetData Forensic Explorer
  • Strong analytical skills and experience producing clear, concise client-ready documentation
  • Experienced in coding using languages including but not limited to Python, SQL and C
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
  • Highly organised, detail-oriented, and able to manage multiple projects concurrently
  • Bachelor's degree in Digital Forensics, Cybersecurity, Computer Science, or a related field
  • Relevant industry certifications (e.g., SANS, EnCE, CFCE, CCE) are highly regarded
  • Willingness to travel occasionally
