📋 Description

• We are looking for a hands-on Security Engineer to strengthen our security operations and take ownership of key risks and controls.
• This is the first dedicated security hire in the team and will play a central role in improving monitoring, detection, data protection, and automation across the organisation.
• You will combine technical security engineering with practical compliance ownership, ensuring that our ISO 27001 and UK Cyber Essentials controls are not just documented, but effective and measurable.
• As our first dedicated security engineer, you will help shape how security operates day to day.
• The scope is broad by design, but success in this role is not about doing everything at once.
• It is about understanding risk, making sound technical judgments, and prioritising the work that meaningfully reduces risk for the business.
• We value pragmatism over perfection.
• You will be expected to identify gaps, propose improvements, and execute in a structured, risk-based way, focusing on impact rather than activity.
• This role is ideal for someone who enjoys building, automating, and improving systems while taking real ownership and influencing how security evolves as the company grows.
• We operate a cloud-first infrastructure of approximately 300 employees with Apple endpoints and minimal reliance on Microsoft technologies.
• Security controls are primarily implemented across SaaS platforms and cloud services, with a strong focus on automation and API-driven workflows.
• Core stack: Okta, Google Cloud, Datadog, Island Enterprise Platform, Jamf, Vanta
• Key responsibilities include improving and tuning SIEM detection rules and alerting workflows, identifying gaps in detection coverage, enhancing DLP and secure web gateway controls, and more.
• Automation and AI enablement, compliance and control engineering, governance and risk support are also key aspects of this role.
• We are looking for a candidate with 5–7 years of hands-on experience in information security, practical experience operating and tuning security tools, and a solid understanding of Zero Trust principles.
• Strong technical mindset with automation experience and experience supporting ISO 27001 or similar compliance frameworks are also required.

🎯 Requirements

• 5–7 years of hands-on experience in information security
• Practical experience operating and tuning security tools such as ISPM, SIEM, DLP, CASB, EDR, and related platforms
• Solid understanding and real-world implementation experience of Zero Trust principles, including identity-based access controls, least privilege, device posture enforcement, and continuous verification

🏖️ Benefits

• Opportunity to work alongside AI enthusiasts and data experts who are shaping tomorrow
• Chance to inspire change and deliver value at the forefront of data and AI
• Competitive compensation and benefits package
• Professional development and growth opportunities
• Collaborative and dynamic work environment
