Reference: ou6ecf1bfqkaj07a8xpk

We are seeking a Security Operations Engineer, AWS Security Cloud Response to help protect cloud environments, investigate security events and strengthen operational resilience. This role will suit an experienced security professional who is confident working across AWS services, responding to incidents and collaborating with technical teams in a fast-paced environment.

You will monitor and investigate alerts from cloud security, identity, endpoint and network monitoring tools, assessing potential threats and coordinating appropriate responses. Responsibilities will include triaging incidents, conducting root-cause analysis, containing and remediating security issues, and maintaining accurate case records. You will also contribute to threat hunting, vulnerability investigations and the development of playbooks, procedures and automation that improve response capability.

The role will involve working closely with engineering, infrastructure, application and risk teams to identify control gaps and implement practical security improvements. You will support the secure configuration of AWS services, review logging and monitoring coverage, and help ensure that security controls align with internal standards and recognised industry practices. Clear communication will be essential when explaining technical findings, escalating risks and producing concise incident reports for a range of stakeholders.

Applicants should have hands-on experience in a security operations, incident response, cloud security or similar role, together with strong knowledge of AWS security concepts and services. Experience with IAM, CloudTrail, GuardDuty, Security Hub, VPC security, encryption, logging and network controls is highly desirable. Familiarity with SIEM platforms, detection engineering, threat intelligence and scripting or automation using Python, Bash or similar languages would be advantageous.

You will be expected to demonstrate sound analytical judgement, attention to detail and the ability to prioritise effectively during high-impact incidents. Relevant professional certifications, such as AWS Security, CISSP, GIAC or equivalent, are desirable but not essential. A proactive approach to continuous improvement and a commitment to maintaining current knowledge of evolving cloud threats are essential.
