Senior Software and Security Engineer
We are seeking a Senior Software and Security Engineer to design, develop, and protect reliable software systems across the organisation. In this senior role, you will contribute to the full software development lifecycle, from technical planning and architecture through implementation, testing, deployment, and ongoing improvement. You will work closely with engineering, infrastructure, product, and operational teams to deliver secure, scalable, and maintainable solutions that meet business and user needs.
Your responsibilities will include developing high-quality code, reviewing technical designs and pull requests, improving application performance, and supporting modern development practices such as continuous integration and automated delivery. You will identify security risks across applications, services, and cloud environments, then implement practical controls to reduce those risks. This includes threat modelling, vulnerability assessment, security testing, dependency management, access control, secrets management, logging, monitoring, and incident response. You will also help establish secure coding standards, contribute to security and engineering documentation, and provide guidance and mentoring to less experienced colleagues.
The successful candidate will have substantial experience in software engineering and application security, with strong knowledge of secure development principles, software architecture, and common vulnerabilities. Experience with cloud platforms, infrastructure as code, CI/CD pipelines, source-control workflows, automated testing, and security tooling is highly desirable. You should be comfortable working with at least one modern programming language and be able to investigate complex technical issues methodically. Strong communication skills, sound judgement, and the ability to balance delivery objectives with security and operational requirements are essential. Relevant professional experience, certifications, or formal qualifications in software engineering, cybersecurity, or a related discipline would be advantageous.
