Description

Cybersecurity at SSC is entering an exciting phase of growth. As we continue to strengthen our security organization, we are investing in new capabilities, platforms, technologies, and processes that will support secure operations across our international business. We are looking for a Security Engineer who wants to build, improve, and modernize security capabilities while working at the intersection of architecture, engineering, operations, and cloud. This role is for someone who enjoys creating solutions, solving complex technical challenges, and turning security requirements into practical implementations.

Requirements

• Build security capabilities rather than simply maintain them
• Influence security architecture and technology decisions
• Work across cloud, infrastructure, identity, endpoint, and security platforms
• Partner with engineers, architects, and operations teams
• Join a growing cybersecurity team where your contributions will have visible impact
• Opportunity to help shape SSC's future technical security landscape

Your mission

As Security Engineer, you will strengthen SSC's technical security foundations by designing, implementing, integrating, and improving security services, platforms, and controls. You will help move security earlier into projects and engineering processes while ensuring security solutions remain practical, scalable, and operationally effective.

Responsibilities

Security Engineering

• Design and implement security controls and security platforms
• Improve technical security capabilities across infrastructure and cloud environments
• Support the implementation of secure-by-design principles across SSC
• Develop technical standards and engineering practices

Security Architecture

• Contribute cybersecurity expertise to infrastructure and cloud architectures
• Review designs and recommend appropriate security controls
• Participate in technology evaluations and platform decisions
• Support architecture reviews from a security perspective

Security Platforms

• Design and improve SIEM integrations and logging architectures
• Support deployment and optimization of EDR, NDR, and security tooling

• Build integrations that support security monitoring and incident response
• Continuously improve technical security capabilities

Project & Delivery Support

• Collaborate with project teams throughout the lifecycle
• Support secure solution design and implementation
• Provide practical cybersecurity guidance to engineering teams

Benefits

You are a builder.

You enjoy creating solutions, improving systems, and solving technical problems. You thrive in environments where not everything is already defined and where your technical expertise can influence outcomes.

You are equally comfortable discussing architecture with senior engineers and rolling up your sleeves to implement technical security improvements yourself.

What We Believe You Bring

• University degree or equivalent practical experience
• Strong technical background in cybersecurity and IT infrastructure
• Several years of experience within security engineering, cloud security, infrastructure security, or cybersecurity consulting
• Experience implementing security tools and platforms
• Strong understanding of cloud security concepts
• Ability to evaluate and solve complex technical challenges
• Experience collaborating across architecture, operations, and engineering teams
• Strong communication skills
