Own cloud security where the impact is real We're hiring an experienced AWS Cloud Security Engineer to become the dedicated UK security specialist for a growing international technology business operating in the public-safety sector.

The organisation develops cloud-native software used in environments where security, resilience and availability genuinely matter . As its UK operation continues to grow, you'll take meaningful ownership of security across its AWS environment while working closely with an established Cybersecurity function in the US.

This isn't a role where you'll spend your week writing policies or simply passing findings to somebody else.

You'll be expected to understand the environment, work directly with AWS security controls, assess vulnerabilities and threats, support security incidents and help engineering teams make good security decisions.

At the same time, you won't be expected to arrive having done every part of the job already.

If you've built strong AWS security experience and are ready for greater ownership, broader project exposure and the opportunity to become the key security presence for a growing UK operation, this could be an excellent next move.

What you'll be doing You'll take day-to-day security ownership of the UK AWS environment, working with Cybersecurity, DevOps, Infrastructure and other engineering teams.

Your work will include:

Maintaining and improving AWS security controls and cloud security posture.

Identifying vulnerabilities, assessing their real-world risk and helping drive remediation.

Monitoring emerging threats and translating them into practical actions.

Working with AWS-native security tooling, including environments using GuardDuty and CloudTrail .
