What they're looking for

  • 5+ years in a security engineering, application security, or cloud security role, with meaningful time spent hands-on rather than purely advisory
  • Direct experience operating or contributing to SOC 2 Type II controls in a live environment, not just preparing for an initial audit, but sustaining and evidencing controls over time
  • Practical penetration testing skills: web application, API, and cloud infrastructure testing, with the ability to run assessments internally and validate third-party findings
  • Strong cloud security background (AWS): IAM design, network segmentation, encryption, secrets management, and workload isolation
  • Working knowledge of PCI DSS requirements and how to scope, segment, and evidence a cardholder-data environment
  • Solid grasp of GDPR as it applies to engineering: lawful basis, data minimisation, retention, subject rights, cross-border transfers, and sub-processor management
