Senior OT Cyber Engineer
We are seeking a Senior OT Cyber Engineer to strengthen the security and resilience of operational technology environments across critical industrial and infrastructure operations. In this role, you will provide expert guidance on protecting industrial control systems, supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) platforms, distributed control systems, plant networks and other connected operational assets. You will work closely with engineering, operations, information security and third-party teams to identify cyber risks and deliver practical, risk-based improvements without compromising safety, availability or production.
Your responsibilities will include developing and maintaining OT security architectures, policies, standards and technical procedures; conducting security assessments, threat modelling and risk analyses; and supporting vulnerability management, secure configuration and network segmentation initiatives. You will contribute to the design and implementation of monitoring and detection capabilities, incident response playbooks, access controls and remote-access solutions. The role will also involve investigating security events, coordinating containment and recovery activities, supporting audit and regulatory requirements, and ensuring that cyber security considerations are embedded throughout the design, commissioning, operation and decommissioning of OT systems.
Applicants should have substantial experience in OT, industrial cyber security, control systems engineering or a closely related discipline, together with a strong understanding of industrial protocols, network technologies, Windows and Linux environments, and common OT threat scenarios. Knowledge of recognised frameworks and standards such as IEC 62443, NIST Cybersecurity Framework, NIST SP 800-82 and ISO 27001 is highly desirable. Relevant professional certifications in cyber security, networking, industrial automation or risk management would be advantageous. You will need excellent analytical, communication and stakeholder-management skills, the confidence to influence technical and operational teams, and the ability to translate complex security risks into clear, actionable recommendations. Experience working in safety-critical, regulated or highly available environments is preferred.
