Security Platform Engineer
We are seeking a Security Platform Engineer to help design, build and operate secure, reliable platforms that protect applications, infrastructure and data. You will work closely with engineering, cloud, operations and risk teams to embed security throughout the development lifecycle, strengthen platform controls and improve the organisation’s ability to detect, respond to and prevent threats. This is an opportunity to influence technical direction while delivering practical security solutions in a fast-paced environment.
Your responsibilities will include developing and maintaining security tooling, automation and infrastructure across cloud and on-premises environments; implementing identity and access management, secrets management, network security and endpoint controls; and integrating security capabilities into CI/CD pipelines and developer workflows. You will monitor platform health and security events, investigate vulnerabilities and incidents, support remediation, and contribute to threat modelling, security architecture reviews and technical standards. You will also create clear documentation, metrics and operational procedures, promote security best practice, and help improve resilience through testing, continuous improvement and knowledge sharing.
To succeed in this role, you will have experience in security engineering, platform engineering, DevSecOps or a closely related discipline, together with a strong understanding of cloud technologies, infrastructure as code, containers and modern software delivery practices. Experience with tools such as Terraform, Kubernetes, Git-based CI/CD platforms, vulnerability management systems, SIEM solutions and scripting languages such as Python, PowerShell or Bash would be valuable. You should be comfortable working with identity providers, Linux and Windows environments, networking fundamentals and common security frameworks. Strong analytical, communication and collaboration skills are essential, as is the ability to balance secure design with usability and delivery. Relevant industry certifications or equivalent practical experience are welcome.
