## Description

Urban Sports Club is building a security function that moves with heart and mind. As a Security Engineer you will work across the full security landscape - from application security to cloud runtime to development pipelines and of course AI - bringing genuine breadth alongside real depth in your domain specialisations.
You will work side-by-side with IT analysts, developers, product managers, and leadership alike to embed security into how we build and operate. You will report to the Director of Cyber Security, with the empowerment and autonomy to shape how security is done across the company.
This role suits those with a builder's mindset who gets restless without a hard problem to solve, who is excited about the intersection of AI and security, and who communicates as comfortably in a board update as in a pull request review.
What you will do
You partner with engineering, product, and infrastructure teams to identify and mitigate security risks across our cloud, application, and AI/ML environments
You lead security initiatives in your specialist area - whether that is AI/ML Security, DevSecOps, Application/Product Security, or Cloud Security - while staying curious and contributing across different domains
You design, build, and operate security controls, automation, and tooling that scale with a fast-growing platform
You drive threat modelling, secure design reviews, and risk assessments for new features, services, and infrastructure changes
You detect, respond to, and investigate security incidents; own root cause analysis and drive post-incident improvements
You translate complex security topics into clear, actionable language for technical and non-technical audiences, including C-level leadership
You track the evolving threat landscape, with particular attention to AI/ML attack surfaces and AI-assisted security tooling, bringing those insights back into the business
