Security Data engineer
We are seeking a Security Data Engineer to design, build and maintain reliable data solutions that support cyber security monitoring, threat detection and risk management. You will work with security analysts, engineers and wider technology teams to ensure that security data is collected, processed and made available in a consistent, timely and actionable way. The role involves developing data pipelines, integrating information from cloud platforms, applications, endpoints, identity systems and network technologies, and improving the quality, accessibility and governance of security data.
Your responsibilities will include designing scalable ingestion and transformation processes; developing and maintaining data models, schemas and security-focused datasets; and supporting dashboards, alerts, reports and analytical tools used to identify suspicious activity. You will help establish standards for data classification, retention, lineage, access control and validation, while monitoring pipeline performance and resolving data quality or availability issues. You will also contribute to the automation of operational tasks, the implementation of secure engineering practices and the continuous improvement of detection and response capabilities. Clear documentation and constructive collaboration will be essential, including translating complex technical information for both specialist and non-specialist stakeholders.
We are looking for experience in data engineering, security engineering, analytics engineering or a related technical discipline. You should be confident working with SQL and a programming language such as Python, and have practical experience with data pipelines, APIs, distributed processing or cloud-based data platforms. Familiarity with security information and event management, endpoint telemetry, identity data, threat intelligence or common security frameworks would be advantageous. Experience with infrastructure as code, version control, testing, CI/CD and observability tools is also desirable. You will need strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail and a proactive approach to working in a changing environment. Relevant professional certifications or equivalent hands-on experience are welcome.
