Cyber Security Engineer - Permanent Location: Glasgow (Hybrid - 1 day per week on‑site) Overview A leading organisation in Glasgow is seeking a Cyber Security Engineer to drive the transformation from a traditional, governance‑heavy security model to a modern engineering‑led capability. This is a hands‑on, highly technical position focused on building, automating, and scaling secure platforms across cloud‑native environments, enterprise workloads, and emerging AI systems. This role is not a people‑management post in the traditional sense-its purpose is to lead through engineering expertise, act as the technical authority across cloud and endpoint security, and champion modern, automated defences across the digital estate. Key Responsibilities Security Engineering & Automation Architect and implement security controls across Microsoft 365, Azure, Dynamics 365, Kubernetes (AKS), and AI/ML workloads. Lead deployment of Conditional Access, Microsoft Defender for Cloud, Purview DLP, Azure Firewall, and related Microsoft security technologies. Embed security into DevOps pipelines, CI/CD workflows, IaC, and containerised environments. Automate detection and response using Microsoft Sentinel SOAR, custom playbooks, automation rules, and telemetry pipelines. Platform Security Oversight Own endpoint security through Intune, ensuring robust device compliance aligned with Zero Trust principles. Harden AKS clusters through RBAC, secrets management, and runtime protection. Secure AI/ML data pipelines and models, implementing guardrails for model integrity and protection against prompt‑injection threats. Cloud & Network Security Engineer secure configurations across Cisco Meraki infrastructure and Umbrella SWG services. Enforce network segmentation, micro‑perimeter security, and policy‑based routing for hybrid cloud/on‑prem environments. Oversee DNS, secure web access, remote access gateways, and edge protection. Security Operations & Threat Defence Act as the senior escalation point for complex threat investigations and major incident response. Lead red‑team simulations, threat hunting, and vulnerability assessments. Continuously tune detection logic, improve alert fidelity, and enhance security monitoring pipelines. Leadership & Mentorship Provide hands‑on guidance and mentoring to junior and mid‑level security engineers. Shape, communicate, and drive adoption of the security engineering roadmap. Collaborate with architects, delivery teams, and platform owners to ensure security is embedded by design. What We're Looking For Deep technical expertise in Azure, Microsoft 365 Security, Defender, Sentinel, and AKS. Strong background in cloud security engineering, automation, and IaC. Experience with Zero Trust, endpoint security, CI/CD pipeline security, and modern cloud-native controls. Ability to lead through influence and technical authority rather than traditional line management. A problem-solver who thrives in hands-on engineering roles and enjoys building scalable, resilient security capabilities. What's on Offer Permanent role with a hybrid model (1 day per week on-site in Glasgow). Opportunity to drive a major security transformation and build a modern engineering-led capability. High autonomy, impactful work, and a chance to shape security across cloud, enterprise, and AI platforms.
