Are you an accomplished Senior Security Engineer, with experience in a modern software-based platform environment?
Would you relish the opportunity to work with one of the UK's leading independent Software houses, with a global footprint (but UK HQ), 500 staff & a focus on technical excellence?
If so, we are looking for an experienced Senior Security Engineer to join our growing Security Ops team, working closely with the wide GRC & policy team, DevOps teams, Dev' team & internal IT teams to make sure security is at the heart of all our technical process'.

Job title: Senior Security Engineer. Cyber Security Engineer or similar!

Location: London office, but nearly 100% remote (UK) role – 1 day per month in London for a Team meet up & after bedding in for 6 months this can become even less.
We'd hope that an experienced individual will know what the role entails, but some key points to be considered:

- Excellent problem-solving and communication skills with an innate passion for security.
- A proactive approach to staying updated with the latest security threats, vulnerabilities, and mitigation techniques.
