Remote jobs in United Kingdom

Description

We’re looking for someone that is passionate about Security Engineering with a core software engineering background to do something that is the first of its kind at this scale. We’re embedding a Security Engineer directly into a product squad where you’ll be building a world‑class security control (our own Airlock) written in Python and designed from the ground up.

You’ll start fully embedded in our Research Enablement squad acting as both Security SME and Software Engineer. Over time your role will evolve into a roughly 50/50 split between hands‑on coding and broader security engineering across the organisation.

We’re looking for someone with a strong software engineering mindset, a love of automation and the ability to balance technical ambition with pragmatic delivery. If you’ve built security tools in product‑led environments this is your chance to do it again but in an environment that is striving to deliver a positive impact to millions of people.

At Our Future Health our mission is to transform the prevention, detection and treatment of conditions such as dementia, cancer, diabetes, heart disease and stroke. We’re looking for people to join us on our journey. If you’re looking for a new challenge where you can contribute to helping future generations live in good health for longer then we’re keen to speak with you.

• Working in a siloed environment with no freedom to make decisions.
• Working in a place where you can’t see the impact your expertise makes.

• Proficiency in writing Python and ideally KQL.
• Comfortable working with Infrastructure as Code, ideally with knowledge of Terraform.
• Significant experience developing Python scripts/systems.
• Experience working directly with software engineering best practices: source control, unit testing, code reviews, design documentation, excellent debugging and troubleshooting skills.
• Experience with Azure (ideally), AWS or GCP, Docker, Kubernetes and Helm.
• Experience of operationally managing software components once live including observability, logging, metrics, error reporting, debugging and live incident management.
• Experience with Microsoft Sentinel, Microsoft Defender and Purview suites and Microsoft Entra.
• Experience of SOAR tooling and automating security capabilities and operations.
• Experience in Threat Modelling.
• Ability to communicate with stakeholders and audiences outside your own team.
• Exposure to Agile working.
• Experience working in/with cross‑functional teams consisting of engineers, product, UX and non‑technical stakeholders.
• Desire to be part of a small fast‑paced security team.
• Relevant certifications such as: Microsoft certifications (MS-500, AZ-500, SC-200, SC-300, SC-400), CompTIA Security, GIAC Security Operations Certified (GSOC), Cloud Security Alliance CCSK.
