Security Engineer

This is not a SOC Analyst or Threat Detection Engineer position. The focus is on owning and improving security tooling, automating processes and making the bank’s security platforms work effectively at scale.

The environment is heavily Microsoft and Azure focused, with technologies including Microsoft Azure Arc, Entra ID, Defender, Intune and Sentinel. The team has recently delivered major projects including the rollout of Microsoft Sentinel across the bank. Automation is a major part of the role. You’ll be expected to identify manual processes that can be improved and build practical solutions using Scripting and automation.

This would suit someone who started their career in infrastructure, systems or IT support before moving into security engineering and who now has good hands-on experience working with security technologies. Strong Microsoft/Azure exposure would be particularly valuable.

You’ll join an established security function within a major international banking environment, with the opportunity to work across a varied technology stack and the scope to continue developing your security engineering expertise. Financial Services experience is not required - any sector considered including MSSP and consultancy.

International banking group seeks a hands-on Security Engineer to join its London-based security team, taking responsibility for the engineering, automation and the ongoing management of a broad security technology estate.
