Lead Edge Platform Security Engineer

Reference: p72r2af10qe3hlorz0fp

We are seeking a Lead Edge Platform Security Engineer to provide technical leadership for the security of internet-facing platforms, edge services and distributed infrastructure. You will help protect critical systems that operate at scale, combining strategic thinking with hands-on engineering to strengthen resilience, reduce risk and enable secure delivery.

In this role, you will define and implement security standards for edge computing, content delivery, networking, application gateways, API platforms and cloud-based services. You will work closely with platform, infrastructure, software engineering and operations teams to embed security throughout the design, development and deployment lifecycle.

Your responsibilities will include assessing architectural designs, identifying vulnerabilities and advising on appropriate controls across networks, workloads, identity, encryption, traffic management and service-to-service communication. You will lead threat modelling and security reviews, support incident response, improve detection and monitoring capabilities, and ensure that security risks are clearly documented, prioritised and managed.

You will also contribute to security automation, policy-as-code and continuous compliance initiatives, helping teams replace manual processes with reliable, scalable controls. The role involves influencing technical direction, mentoring engineers, establishing good practice and representing security in architecture and engineering forums. You will be expected to stay informed about emerging threats, industry developments and changes in relevant regulatory requirements.

Applicants should have substantial experience in platform, infrastructure, cloud or application security, including a strong understanding of edge technologies, distributed systems and modern networking. Experience with public cloud platforms, infrastructure as code, CI/CD pipelines, containerised environments, Kubernetes, identity and access management, and security tooling is highly desirable. You should be comfortable reviewing code and architecture, investigating complex security issues and communicating technical risks to both specialist and non-specialist audiences.

We are looking for a collaborative and pragmatic security professional who can balance robust protection with operational performance and engineering efficiency. A proactive approach, strong problem-solving skills and the ability to lead through influence are essential. Relevant professional certifications or equivalent practical experience would be advantageous.
