As the subject matter expert, you will provide guidance and advice to the product team’s engineers, and act as a single point of contact between the team and the wider Cyber Security department. Additionally, you will maintain a close relationship with our Core Security Engineering team to relay your product team’s requirements, and help design, build, operate, and maintain the bespoke in-house services that our Cyber Security team provides to the business. You will also support the implementation of commercial security tooling, such as SIEM, SAST, and CNAPP.
