Job description

Security Operations Engineer / DevSecOps (Azure) Remote UK to £80k

Are you a bright, ambitious technologist looking for an opportunity to progress your career?

You could be joining a rapidly expanding scale-up software house that is developing a highly complex network cyber security platform; the platform monitors network protocols in real-time, parses the commands and data structures to extract key metadata which is then analysed by in‑house algorithms and allows customers to detect hackers, malware, data leakage and other malicious activity.

Your role:

As a Security Operations Engineer / DevSecOps you will play a crucial role in building and securing cloud‑native platforms and development workflows, working at the intersection of Azure cloud engineering, security operations and CI / CD pipeline automation, ensuring that security is embedded into every stage of the software delivery lifecycle.

You’ll take ownership of implementing and maintaining security controls across Azure environments, continuously monitoring systems for vulnerabilities, misconfigurations and threats, and securing CI / CD pipelines – integrating automated security testing, enforcing best practices, and ensuring that development teams can ship code quickly without compromising safety.

In this role, you’ll collaborate closely with engineering, platform and security teams to design scalable, secure architectures and drive a culture of secure‑by‑default engineering. You’ll help define security standards, perform regular testing and validation, and respond proactively to emerging risks and incidents.

This is a hands‑on, high‑impact position ideal for someone who loves blending automation, cloud engineering, and cutting‑edge security practices to protect modern distributed systems.

Location / WFH:

There’s a remote first policy so you can work from home from anywhere in the UK (or can be hybrid based from the London office).

About you:

• You must be a Computer Science graduate from a Russel Group university (min 2 : 1 classification)
• You have experience with DevSecOps, security testing, monitoring and securing CI / CD pipelines
• You have a strong knowledge of Azure and cloud security
• You have experience of threat detection and scanning code for vulnerabilities
• You’re collaborative with excellent communication and relationship building skills
• You have meticulous attention to detail
• You have strong analysis and problem solving skills

What’s in it for you:

As a Security Operations Engineer / DevSecOps you will earn a competitive package :

• Salary to £80k
• Continuous training and career development including paid for industry certifications
• Remote working
