We’re supporting one of the most ambitious cyber transformation programmes currently underway in the trading technology space.
My client is looking to hire a hands-on Security Engineer to lead key workstreams across Kubernetes and Cloud Security.
This is a rare opportunity to join during a major build phase and take ownership of security engineering initiatives that will shape the firm’s future platform security posture.
Responsibilities include:
* Securing Kubernetes environments
* Performing cloud security assessments and remediation
* Improving CI/CD and software supply chain security
* Hardening infrastructure-as-code deployments
* Implementing container and image security controls
* Working directly with engineering teams on real security improvements
To be successful you will bring:
* Strong hands-on security engineering experience
* Background in cloud security, DevSecOps, platform security or infrastructure security
* Experience with scripting/automation
* Exposure to Kubernetes, cloud environments, CI/CD or IaC security
* Engineers who can build, improve and implement, not just advise
Tech exposure

Traits my client is looking for:
Beyond the technical skillset, the team is looking for engineers who are naturally curious and genuinely enjoy solving difficult technical problems.
The ideal person will:
* Love tackling complex challenges and figuring things out
* Enjoy solving puzzles and working through ambiguity
* Be intellectually curious and constantly looking to improve systems and processes
* Thrive in environments where not everything is fully defined from day one
* Be comfortable building, iterating and evolving solutions as projects develop
* Enjoy thinking creatively and developing innovative solutions to difficult security problems
* Take ownership and proactively drive improvements rather than waiting for direction
This environment will suit people who enjoy fast-moving engineering cultures, greenfield problem solving, and having real influence over technical direction.
Before applying, please make sure you are comfortable working 5 days per week in London.
