Microsoft Security Platform Security Engineer
We are seeking a Security Platform Security Engineer to design, implement and maintain secure, resilient identity, endpoint and cloud security capabilities across a complex technology environment. You will work closely with infrastructure, engineering, operations and governance teams to protect systems, applications and data while enabling secure business delivery. The role requires a practical understanding of modern security platforms, strong problem-solving skills and the ability to translate security requirements into reliable technical solutions.
Your responsibilities will include deploying and administering security controls across cloud and on-premises environments; managing identity and access controls, privileged access, endpoint protection, vulnerability management and security monitoring; and developing policies, standards and technical documentation. You will investigate alerts and incidents, support threat detection and response activities, and contribute to security automation using scripting, APIs and infrastructure-as-code principles. You will also assess new technologies, identify control gaps, support audits and risk assessments, and recommend improvements that strengthen the organisation’s overall security posture.
Applicants should have professional experience in security engineering, platform administration or a similar technical discipline, together with hands-on knowledge of cloud security, identity services, endpoint security and security information and event management. Experience with security operations, incident response, network fundamentals, authentication protocols and secure configuration practices is highly desirable. Familiarity with automation tools and scripting languages such as PowerShell or Python, as well as relevant security frameworks and certifications, would be advantageous. You should be an analytical and collaborative professional who can communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical audiences, manage competing priorities and work effectively in a changing environment.
