Network and Security Sysops Engineer
We are seeking a Network and Security SysOps Engineer to support the availability, performance, and security of a complex IT infrastructure. This role is responsible for operating and improving network and security services across on-premises and cloud environments, ensuring systems remain resilient, compliant, and responsive to business needs. You will work closely with infrastructure, development, service desk, and risk teams to investigate incidents, implement improvements, and maintain reliable technology services.
Key responsibilities include monitoring and maintaining firewalls, switches, routers, VPNs, wireless networks, load balancers, and network management platforms. You will administer security controls such as intrusion prevention, endpoint protection, identity and access management, vulnerability scanning, and security event monitoring. The role will involve responding to alerts and incidents, performing root-cause analysis, managing changes, documenting technical procedures, and contributing to disaster recovery and business continuity planning. You will also support patching, configuration reviews, capacity planning, system hardening, and the automation of routine operational tasks using scripting or infrastructure-as-code tools.
Applicants should have proven experience in network operations, systems administration, and information security within a production environment. Strong knowledge of TCP/IP, DNS, DHCP, routing, switching, firewalls, VPN technologies, Windows and/or Linux systems, and cloud networking is required. Experience with SIEM platforms, vulnerability management, security frameworks, monitoring tools, and ticket or change-management processes would be advantageous. Relevant certifications such as CCNA, CCNP, CompTIA Security+, CISSP, or equivalent experience are welcomed. You will need strong analytical and troubleshooting skills, attention to detail, clear communication, and the ability to prioritise effectively during incidents. A proactive approach to continuous improvement and a commitment to secure, well-documented operations are essential.
