Senior Engineer (Cybersecurity)
We are seeking a Senior Engineer (Cybersecurity) to design, implement and continuously improve security controls across a complex technology environment. The successful candidate will work across infrastructure, cloud, applications and enterprise systems to identify vulnerabilities, reduce risk and strengthen resilience against evolving threats. This role combines hands-on engineering with technical leadership, requiring the ability to translate security requirements into practical, scalable solutions.
Key responsibilities include developing and maintaining security architecture, standards and engineering patterns; implementing controls for identity and access management, endpoint protection, network security, encryption, logging and monitoring; and supporting secure cloud adoption and infrastructure automation. You will lead vulnerability management activities, investigate security events, contribute to incident response and remediation, and provide expert guidance during the design and delivery of new systems. The role will also involve conducting risk assessments, supporting penetration testing and audits, reviewing technical changes, and producing clear documentation, metrics and recommendations for stakeholders. You will collaborate with engineering, operations, risk and compliance teams, while mentoring less experienced colleagues and promoting secure-by-design practices.
Applicants should have substantial experience in cybersecurity engineering, security architecture or a closely related discipline, together with a strong understanding of threat modelling, vulnerability management, incident response and defensive security principles. Practical experience with cloud platforms, security information and event management, endpoint detection and response, identity technologies, network controls and scripting or automation is highly desirable. Relevant professional certifications or equivalent expertise will be advantageous. You should be an analytical and confident communicator who can explain complex technical issues to both specialist and non-specialist audiences, manage competing priorities and make sound decisions in a fast-changing environment. A proactive approach, strong attention to detail and a commitment to continuous learning are essential.
