We are looking for an accomplished Cybersecurity Engineer to elevate our security operations and drive the advancement of our cybersecurity capabilities. In this senior individual‑contributor role, you will engineer, maintain, and integrate critical security platforms while supporting vulnerability management activities across a global enterprise. You will apply deep expertise to troubleshoot complex security system issues, collaborate with external vendors and internal teams, and spearhead the design and deployment of new security capabilities.

The ideal candidate is a strategic thinker and proactive problem‑solver who can ensure current defenses operate effectively while developing and integrating new solutions that enhance our long‑term security posture. This position offers a unique opportunity to have a strategic impact on our cybersecurity program's maturity — driving innovation, influencing best practices, and mentoring analysts — all through technical leadership and expertise rather than formal management responsibilities.

What You'll Do:

Security Platform Engineering & Maintenance:  Oversee the health, performance, and integration of cybersecurity platforms to ensure they reliably protect the organization. Perform advanced troubleshooting and root‑cause analysis on complex platform issues. Continuously monitor system outputs and alerts, tune configurations for improvement, and coordinate with vendors' support engineering teams to resolve product bugs or service interruptions. The goal is a stable, resilient security toolset with minimal downtime or gaps

Design & Integrate New Security Capabilities:  Identify capability gaps and evaluate potential technologies or innovative approaches to fill them. Recommend and champion the adoption of new security services, tools, or architectural modifications that improve cybersecurity posture. For each approved initiative, own planning and execution: design the integration approach, coordinate testing and deployment, and ensure new capabilities are smoothly incorporated into the environment without disrupting operations.

Continuously advance capabilities so the organization keeps pace with evolving threats and moves our security environment forward in maturity

Vulnerability Management Program Support:  Interface with business owners throughout the entire vulnerability management process — continuous identification, contextualization, assessment and reporting of vulnerabilities across the enterprise. Conduct regular scans and assessments, analyse results to prioritise risk exposures based on severity, threat intelligence, and business impact, and drive remediation efforts to closure. Maintain oversight through metrics, dashboards and reports highlighting trends, progress, and risk reduction.

Keep the program adaptive by staying current on emerging threats and zero‑day vulnerabilities

Vendor Coordination & Stakeholder Engagement:  Act as a technical liaison between the organization and security technology vendors — addressing complex issues, planning upgrades and evaluating enhancements to ensure our tools evolve with organisational needs. Internally, collaborate with IT operations and business stakeholders to plan changes or integrations that impact security systems. Where systemic or recurring problems are identified, lead the effort toward long‑term solutions (e.g. working with a vendor on a patch or with internal teams on an…
