Senior Security Engineer - London, United Kingdom - Xcede

    Default job background
    Description
    Senior Security Engineer (UK-based, Perm (Hybrid)) is required by a leading financial trading organisation.

    The firm is currently experiencing a period of expansion and is looking to appoint a senior Security technologist to join the team in London.

    The role is a blend of security engineering (design-build) and SecOPs (operations-mitigation) ostensibly across the organisations' corporate systems and (security) vendor products, and would suit an experienced engineer with deep knowledge of security principles in line with the CISSP CBK domains such as security monitoring, intrusion prevention & detection, network security, endpoint management & protection, identity management, threat detection, vulnerability management.

    Whilst the position entails significant exposure to vendor products and tooling, the incoming engineer should demonstrate an open-source mentality and an appetite to automate where possible, strong coding skills are preferable.


    Culturally, the organisation can be described as collegiate with a data-driven approach to trading as well as technology delivery and would suit an inquisitive but collaborative technologist who thrives on solving complex security problems.

    The firm offers a hybrid working model comprising three days in the office.

    Compensation and benefits are exceptional and include a market-leading salary and annual bonus as well as the other benefits associated with working for a leading quantitative trading firm.
