Cloud Application Security Engineer
Central Manchester (3 days a week in-office)
Up to £90,000 + Generous Benefits
We're currently supporting an exciting SaaS fintech that's looking to bring on a Cloud Application Security Engineer to strengthen their growing team.
This is a fantastic opportunity to work at the intersection of cloud, application security, and modern platform engineering, helping to design and secure scalable, multi-tenant systems in a fast-paced, high-growth environment.
What you'll be working with
* Cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, and/or GCP)
* Application security across the full SDLC
* Designing and securing multi-tenant architectures
* AI/ML infrastructure and emerging security challenges
* Infrastructure as Code (IaC) with embedded security controls
What we're looking for
* Strong background in cloud architecture or security engineering with solid experience in application security within SaaS environments
* Deep understanding of application security principles - beyond just the basics, with the ability to think in terms of data flows, trust boundaries, and real-world attack paths
* Experience designing multi-tenant systems where security is a core architectural consideration, including tenant isolation at both application and data layers
* Hands‑on experience with AWS, Azure or GCP
* Understanding of AI/ML platforms and infrastructure (e.g. model pipelines, serving layers, vector databases, LLM integrations)
* Strong knowledge of authentication and authorization patterns (OAuth2, OIDC, SAML, JWT, RBAC/ABAC) and how to implement them at scale
* Experience integrating security into CI/CD pipelines (SAST, DAST, SCA, container scanning)
* Experience with Infrastructure as Code (e.g. Terraform, Pulumi) and applying security policy as code
The company are very big on training and development and are considering candidates without all the required skills.
You’ll play a key role in driving secure‑by‑design principles, working closely with engineering teams to embed security into architecture, development, and deployment.
