Associate Cyber Security Test Engineer
We are seeking an Associate Cyber Security Test Engineer to support the assessment and improvement of security across applications, infrastructure and connected technologies. This is an excellent opportunity for an early-career cyber security professional to develop practical experience in security testing, vulnerability assessment and risk-based assurance while working alongside experienced engineers and wider technology teams.
In this role, you will help plan, execute and document security testing activities, including vulnerability assessments, penetration testing support, configuration reviews and security validation of new or changing systems. You will assist with preparing test scopes and cases, gathering technical information, analysing findings and producing clear reports for both technical and non-technical audiences. You will also help verify remediation actions, maintain accurate records of identified risks and contribute to the continual improvement of testing methods, tools and processes. The role may involve supporting investigations into security weaknesses, reviewing system designs and participating in security discussions with development, infrastructure and delivery teams.
Applicants should have a foundation in cyber security, information technology, software development or a related discipline, gained through education, professional experience or relevant certifications. Familiarity with networking concepts, operating systems, web technologies, common vulnerabilities and security testing principles is desirable. Experience with tools such as vulnerability scanners, proxy tools, scripting languages or security testing platforms would be beneficial, but full training can be provided to the right candidate. You will need strong analytical and problem-solving skills, attention to detail and the ability to communicate technical findings clearly. A methodical, curious and ethical approach is essential, together with a willingness to learn, collaborate and work within defined security and data-handling procedures.
