Security Operation Center Engineer

We are growing rapidly and constantly expanding our global contactless payment ecosystem.
Security is at the heart of everything we do, so we are looking for two SOC Engineers to build
our Security Operations Centre from the ground up. Working closely with the Head of
Software Engineering, the Cyber and Information Security Manager, and our DevOps team,
you will define the checks, monitoring and detection that protect our corporate IT and the
cloud environments behind our systems.
You will be embedded within our DevOps team and work alongside our engineers every day,
while reporting outside of the DevOps team. That independence means you can provide real
checks and balances, so we know our controls are working, our policies are being followed,
and remediation happens when it is needed. This is an excellent opportunity for a SOC
Engineer who wants to shape a security function in a highly regulated, high-impact
environment.
Responsibilities
Monitor, triage and investigate security alerts across Google Cloud Platform, Google Workspace, and our other cloud services.
Design, build and tune detection rules, dashboards and alerting that give the business clear, real-time visibility of its security posture.
Define and carry out daily, monthly and quarterly security checks, including log reviews, access recertifications, vulnerability scans, configuration drift and segmentation testing.
Produce audit-ready evidence for our PCI compliance programme (DSS, P2PE, PIN and PTS) and support our compliance assessments.
Lead first response to security incidents: contain threats, preserve evidence and drive remediation through to closure.
Coordinate penetration tests and red team exercises and use the findings to strengthen our detection capabilities.
Partner with the Lead DevOps Engineer, DevOps Engineers and Corporate IT Services to make sure security controls are in place, working and not bypassed.
Help shape our SOC tooling, runbooks, automation and KPIs as the function grows.
Take part in an out-of-hours on-call rota to respond to security incidents
