• Excellent organisation, communication and analysis.
• A real technical understanding of the threats web-based products face.
• Professional English.
• A bachelor's degree in a related discipline with three years of related experience — or, exceptionally, ten years of progressive expertise in this kind of work.

Responsabilités

• Proactively managing and maintaining the servers behind the platform, with the confidentiality, integrity and availability the information demands.
• Standing up, configuring and running dedicated instances in support of exercises.
• Keeping the software current and supporting the test and validation work behind change management.
• Configuring and extending the monitoring around every installation.
• Maintaining the Ansible playbooks that build and configure it all.
• Writing and improving the documentation, and keeping it worth reading.
• Being the expert the internal communities come to on deployment architectures — what each one buys you and what it costs.
• Developing and maintaining Python scripts that automate the platform and integrate it with the systems around it, including security monitoring and detection.

• Supporting the user community — regular feedback normally, daily feedback during exercises.
