We are looking for a Cyber Security Engineer to strengthen iProov’s hands‑on technical security capability.

You will work across security operations, vulnerability management, IT security, email security and the wider technology environment, helping us identify security issues and, importantly, get them fixed.

• IT & Endpoint Security: Work closely with TechOps to improve the security of our corporate environment, managing device hardening and EDR security and identifying and remediating security weaknesses across our fleet.
• Google Workspace Security: Engineer and continuously improve security across our Google Workspace environment, including identity and access controls, email security, authentication, secure configuration and implementation of new security controls and capabilities.
• Security Engineering: Work with Engineering and technical teams to design and implement practical security solutions, tooling and automation, and assess new technologies to ensure security is built in from the outset.
• Security Team Collaboration: Work closely with the Information Security Officer to deliver technical remediation arising from risks, audits and security controls, and partner with the Senior Security Engineer on the implementation and ongoing improvement of security across our infrastructure, AI tooling and engineering environments.
