Security Engineer

I’m supporting a growing managed security services provider that is looking to hire a Cyber Security Engineer to lead the deployment and configuration of security platforms across its customer base.

You’ll be the technical lead in front of customers, taking them from initial design through to cutover, then supporting them as the environment beds in. This is a hands-on role, and you’ll build deep, expert-level knowledge of the platforms you deploy.

The role

• Configure and deploy security solutions into customer environments
• Migrate customers from their existing tooling onto the new platform
• Analyse platform logs to troubleshoot and identify issues
• Work with vendor technical support teams to resolve cases
• Deliver against agreed project scope, on time
• Produce technical documentation and diagrams for each engagement
• Provide out of hours support where needed for cutovers and maintenance

Clearance: Active SC clearance, or eligibility for SC (minimum five years continuous UK residency). No exceptions., * UK-based with active SC clearance, or eligible for it

• At least three years of current experience deploying, configuring and maintaining at least two of the following stacks:
• Palo Alto XSOAR, XDR or XSIAM
• Palo Alto Prisma Access, Strata Cloud Manager, IoT Security and NGFWs
• Google SecOps SIEM and SOAR
• Microsoft Defender and Sentinel
• Experience deploying and supporting cloud, network and security technologies
• Python scripting, including writing and debugging code
• Solid understanding of Windows, Linux and macOS, networking fundamentals, and identity technologies such as Entra ID
• Clear written and spoken English, and the ability to explain technical concepts to technical and non-technical clients

Nice to have:

• MSSP or MDR experience
• SIEM or SOAR deployment and support experience
• Google Cloud, Azure or AWS experience
• Security Operations background
