We are looking for a Security Engineer / DevSecOps professional to implement and improve security controls across our corporate infrastructure and new digital services, including AI solutions.
Our environment combines Windows and Linux systems, private and cloud infrastructure, SaaS platforms, and internally developed applications and integrations.
You will work closely with the CISO, DevOps, IT Operations, and project teams to identify technical risks, implement safeguards, automate security tasks, and verify that controls work effectively. We value practical engineering skills, independent problem-solving, and experience translating governance requirements into technical implementation.
Reports to: Head of Cybersecurity (CISO) Role type: Hands-on individual contributor
What you will do:
Security monitoring and detection
Develop and implement a security monitoring roadmap, including requirements, architecture, and integration priorities.
Contribute to the selection and evolution of our SIEM/XDR architecture.
Integrate log sources and maintain reliable, complete, and useful security telemetry.
Develop and test detection rules, correlation logic, and threat-hunting queries.
Support incident investigation and improve response procedures.
Vulnerability management
Implement a repeatable process for vulnerability discovery, validation, prioritisation, remediation tracking, and retesting.
Assess exploitability and business impact, considering exposure, asset criticality, and potential attack paths.
Develop remediation plans with IT and DevOps, track progress, and verify that fixes are effective.
Secure service delivery and hardening
Review the security of service architectures, configurations, integrations, and CI/CD pipelines.
Develop technical checklists covering access controls, role models, credentials and secrets, network connectivity, external integrations, encryption, and logging.
Implement and automate secure configuration baselines.
Work with DevOps to assess security readiness before production launches and address identified risks.
Plan and validate security changes with attention to service availability and rollback options.
Security automation and AI-assisted engineering
Build scripts and integrations for event analysis, configuration checks, vulnerability management, and reporting.
Use AI coding assistants and agent tools to support engineering tasks.
Validate generated code and findings, and protect credentials, access permissions, and corporate data throughout these workflows.
AI security and governance implementation
Develop and apply security assessment checklists for corporate LLM services, AI assistants, agents, and their integrations.
Assess access to data and tools, execution isolation, and scenarios that could adversely affect information or systems.
Address risks such as prompt injection, data leakage, excessive permissions, and authorisation failures.
Translate agreed AI governance requirements into technical controls and verification steps.
Security validation
Conduct authorised tests of attack scenarios and vulnerability exploitability.
Verify whether monitoring and protection tools detect or prevent the tested activity.
Use findings to improve configurations, detection coverage, and response procedures.
What we are looking for
Practical experience in Security Engineering, DevSecOps, or infrastructure/DevOps roles with substantial responsibility for production security.
Ability to own technical tasks from investigation and planning through implementation and validation.
Hands-on SIEM/XDR experience, including log onboarding, queries, detection rules, and alert investigation.
Practical experience with vulnerability management and system or service hardening.
