Security Engineer
We are seeking a skilled Security Engineer to help protect critical systems, applications, networks, and data from evolving cyber threats. In this role, you will design, implement, and maintain effective security controls across cloud and on-premises environments, while supporting the continuous improvement of security operations and engineering practices. You will work closely with infrastructure, development, operations, and risk teams to ensure security is embedded throughout the technology lifecycle.
Your responsibilities will include monitoring and investigating security events, supporting incident response activities, and conducting vulnerability assessments, penetration testing, and remediation tracking. You will configure and manage security technologies such as firewalls, endpoint protection, identity and access management, security information and event management platforms, intrusion detection systems, and cloud security tools. You will also contribute to threat modelling, secure system design, security architecture reviews, and the development of technical standards, procedures, and automation that improve detection and response capabilities.
The successful candidate will have proven experience in security engineering, cyber defence, or a closely related technical role, together with a strong understanding of network security, operating systems, cloud platforms, authentication protocols, encryption, and common attack techniques. Experience with scripting or automation using languages such as Python, PowerShell, or Bash is highly desirable. You should be comfortable analysing logs, explaining technical risks to both technical and non-technical audiences, and prioritising work in a fast-changing environment. Relevant certifications such as CISSP, GIAC, Security+, or cloud security credentials are advantageous. We are looking for someone who is analytical, collaborative, and committed to maintaining high standards of confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
