Engineer, Security Operations
We are seeking an Engineer, Security Operations to help protect critical systems, applications, and data across a complex technology environment. In this role, you will monitor security events, investigate potential threats, and support the rapid detection, analysis, and response to incidents. You will work closely with infrastructure, cloud, application, and risk teams to strengthen defensive capabilities and help maintain a resilient security posture.
Key responsibilities include managing and tuning security monitoring tools, reviewing alerts, conducting incident investigations, and contributing to containment, eradication, and recovery activities. You will analyse logs and security telemetry from endpoints, networks, cloud platforms, and applications; develop and maintain detection rules, dashboards, and operational playbooks; and assist with vulnerability management, threat hunting, and security assessments. You will also support the implementation of automation to improve response times and reduce repetitive operational tasks. Accurate documentation, clear escalation, and the preparation of incident reports and security metrics will be an important part of the role.
The successful candidate will have experience in security operations, incident response, or a closely related engineering role, with a strong understanding of common attack techniques, defensive controls, and security monitoring principles. Practical knowledge of SIEM, EDR, vulnerability management, identity, networking, and cloud security technologies is expected, along with the ability to investigate using log analysis and scripting. Familiarity with frameworks such as MITRE ATT&CK, NIST, or CIS is advantageous. Relevant professional certifications are welcome but not essential. You should be analytical, organised, and comfortable working in a collaborative environment, including participation in an on-call or out-of-hours support rotation where required.
