Senior Security Engineer
We are seeking a Senior Security Engineer to strengthen and advance security capabilities across a complex technology environment. In this role, you will design, implement and maintain security controls that protect applications, infrastructure, networks and data. You will work closely with engineering, operations, architecture and compliance teams to embed security throughout the development and delivery lifecycle, while helping to identify practical solutions to emerging threats and business risks.
Your responsibilities will include leading security assessments, threat modelling, vulnerability management and incident response activities. You will investigate security events, support root-cause analysis and coordinate remediation efforts to reduce risk effectively. You will also develop and improve security monitoring, detection and response processes; review system and application designs; contribute to secure cloud and infrastructure architecture; and provide guidance on identity and access management, encryption, network security and secure configuration. The role will involve creating technical standards, procedures and documentation, as well as mentoring engineers and promoting security awareness across technical teams.
Applicants should have substantial experience in security engineering, cyber defence or a related technical discipline, with a strong understanding of information security principles and industry best practice. Practical experience with cloud platforms, operating systems, networks, security tooling, vulnerability scanners, SIEM technologies and automation is highly desirable. You should be comfortable analysing complex technical issues, communicating risk to both technical and non-technical audiences, and balancing security requirements with operational needs. Experience with security frameworks, regulatory controls, penetration testing, DevSecOps and scripting languages such as Python, PowerShell or Bash would be advantageous. Relevant professional certifications are welcome, but demonstrable expertise, sound judgement and a proactive approach are equally valued. This is an opportunity to make a measurable impact by improving resilience, strengthening engineering practices and helping create a secure, reliable technology environment.
