Security Platform Engineering Lead

Reference: l1q7wx8p0rdl4ww8eytx

We are seeking a Security Platform Engineering Lead to define, build and operate the technology platforms that protect critical systems, applications and data. This role combines technical leadership, hands-on engineering and strategic planning to create secure, scalable and resilient capabilities across cloud and on-premises environments. You will work closely with security, infrastructure, software engineering, architecture and risk teams to establish effective security controls and enable teams to deliver safely at pace.

You will lead the design and evolution of security platforms covering areas such as identity and access management, secrets management, endpoint and infrastructure protection, vulnerability management, security logging, detection engineering and cloud security. Responsibilities include setting technical direction, developing platform roadmaps, improving automation and self-service capabilities, and ensuring solutions are reliable, observable and fit for purpose. You will guide engineering standards, review designs, manage technical debt and contribute to incident response, root-cause analysis and continuous improvement. The role also involves mentoring engineers, coordinating delivery across multiple teams and communicating complex security topics clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

We are looking for an experienced security or platform engineering professional with a strong background in designing and running production-grade security services. You should have practical experience with cloud platforms, infrastructure as code, CI/CD, containers, APIs, scripting and modern security tooling, together with a sound understanding of networking, operating systems and secure software delivery. Experience leading technical projects or engineering teams, establishing service ownership and influencing without direct authority is essential. Relevant security or cloud certifications are welcome, but demonstrated expertise, sound judgement and a collaborative approach are equally important. You will be comfortable balancing long-term architecture with immediate operational needs and will champion pragmatic, measurable improvements to security and engineering maturity.
