Senior Cyber Software Engineer
We are seeking a Senior Cyber Software Engineer to design, develop and maintain secure software solutions that protect critical systems, applications and data. You will work across the software development lifecycle, contributing to technical strategy while delivering robust, scalable and high-quality code within an agile engineering environment.
Your responsibilities will include developing cybersecurity tools and services, integrating security controls into existing platforms, and improving the detection, prevention and response capabilities of internal systems. You will investigate complex technical problems, carry out code reviews, support secure architecture decisions and provide guidance on threat modelling, vulnerability management and secure development practices.
You will collaborate closely with software engineers, security specialists, architects and operational teams to translate business and technical requirements into effective solutions. The role will also involve mentoring less experienced colleagues, promoting engineering standards and helping to embed security throughout the development lifecycle. You may contribute to automation, continuous integration and delivery pipelines, security testing and the evaluation of emerging technologies.
Applicants should have substantial professional experience in software engineering, with a strong understanding of cybersecurity principles and secure coding practices. Experience with one or more modern programming languages, such as Python, Java, C++, Go or C#, is required, alongside knowledge of application security, APIs, cloud technologies, Linux and version control systems. Familiarity with DevSecOps, automated testing, containers, infrastructure as code and common security frameworks would be advantageous.
You will be a confident problem-solver who can communicate complex technical subjects clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences. A proactive approach, attention to detail and the ability to work independently while contributing effectively to a collaborative team are essential. Relevant professional certifications or a degree in computer science, software engineering, cybersecurity or a related discipline would be desirable, although equivalent practical experience will be considered.
