We are seeking a Security Platform Security Engineer to design, implement and maintain robust security capabilities across enterprise technology environments. This role will help protect identities, endpoints, cloud services, applications and data by developing effective security controls, improving operational resilience and supporting the organisation’s wider cyber-security strategy. You will work closely with infrastructure, engineering, architecture, compliance and incident response teams to identify risks and deliver practical, scalable solutions.
Key responsibilities include configuring and administering security platforms, monitoring alerts and investigations, responding to incidents, and tuning detection and prevention controls. You will support identity and access management, endpoint protection, vulnerability management, security information and event monitoring, data protection and cloud security initiatives. The role will also involve developing automation and reporting, maintaining technical documentation, contributing to security standards and procedures, and assisting with audits, risk assessments and continuous improvement programmes. You will be expected to investigate complex security issues, recommend remediation actions and communicate technical findings clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Applicants should have experience in a security engineering or cyber-security operations role, with a strong understanding of enterprise security principles, threat detection, incident response and secure systems administration. Practical experience with cloud security, identity platforms, endpoint technologies, SIEM solutions, scripting or automation, and security configuration management is highly desirable. Familiarity with security frameworks, vulnerability assessment methods and regulatory requirements would be advantageous. You should be analytical, methodical and comfortable managing competing priorities, with the ability to work collaboratively while taking ownership of technical outcomes. Relevant professional certifications or equivalent practical experience are welcomed.
