Job Description

I'm looking for a Cloud Security Engineer to join an internal cyber security team, working across hands-on Security Engineering and wider cyber uplift.

The role is roughly 50% hands-on engineering / 50% uplift, with a big focus on using automation & AI to improve security at scale.

You'll work across:

  • SIEM, XDR & security monitoring
  • Detection engineering & security tooling
  • Cloud security across AWS / Azure
  • Vulnerability management & remediation
  • Automation through DevOps tooling
  • Python / scripting & security automation

We're looking for someone with a strong Security Engineering background who also understands modern cloud and DevOps practices.

A big part of the role will be identifying manual security processes and finding ways to automate, integrate and improve them using engineering and DevOps tooling.

Ideal for a Security Engineer who wants to stay technically hands-on while having the freedom to build, automate and mature the wider cyber environment.

TheDriveGroup is 100% committed to improving meaningful diversity in the technology industry.

We partner with clients who embrace diversity and seek candidates across all backgrounds, abilities, genders, sexualities, cultures and faiths.
