We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Senior Cybersecurity SME / Consultant to join the Engineering Excellence and Enablement team. The successful candidate will work across global engineering platforms to benchmark, uplift, and continuously evolve cybersecurity maturity. The successful candidate will play a critical role in ensuring that build systems, runtime infrastructure, and developer tooling are secure by design, while enabling rapid and resilient software delivery across the bank. This role offers a unique opportunity to shape the cybersecurity posture of engineering platforms at one of the world’s leading financial institutions, ensuring the bank can deliver digital services securely, reliably, and at scale.
Job Responsibility:
Develop and maintain an Engineering-Platform Cybersecurity Maturity Framework to standardise assessments across platforms
Conduct comprehensive platform security reviews (build systems, CI/CD pipelines, runtime infrastructure, developer tooling) against defined framework criteria
Perform threat modelling and gap analysis, identifying vulnerabilities and systemic risks impacting source code, artifacts, and workloads
Establish standardised secure architecture and engineering patterns for build systems, CI/CD pipelines, runtime environments, and developer tooling
Define and enforce platform security baselines using policy-as-code and automated controls
Partner with platform owners to remediate critical gaps and implement scalable solutions for artifact integrity, access control, and configuration security
Integrate vulnerability management, SBOM, provenance, and code-signing practices within engineering workflows
Prioritise identified gaps based on business risk, regulatory impact, and operational criticality
Collaborate with platform owners and engineering leads to build actionable security roadmaps, balancing quick wins with long-term strategic improvements
Partner with engineering teams to design, develop, and embed security patterns and best practices into engineering platforms
Serve as a trusted advisor to platform owners, senior technology stakeholders, and Cybersecurity leadership, translating technical risks into business impact
Represent the function in key governance forums, providing updates on maturity progress, roadmap delivery, and risk posture
Influence and align stakeholders across federated engineering teams to ensure consistent adoption of cybersecurity best practices
Track and report maturity scores, ensuring measurable improvement across platforms
Continuously evolve the maturity framework in response to emerging threats, technology evolution, and regulatory expectations
Drive a culture of secure-by-design engineering through engagement, advocacy, and knowledge sharing
Requirements:
Proven expertise in Cybersecurity within large-scale, regulated financial institutions or similarly complex environments
Deep technical knowledge of engineering platforms, including CI/CD systems, build tools, artifact repositories, runtime environments, and developer tooling
Strong experience with DevSecOps practices, including secure pipeline design, integration of security scanning tools, and automation of security controls
Strong knowledge and understanding of service mesh, cryptography, network security, application security, vulnerability management, and risk management
Demonstrable ability to conduct threat modelling, platform security assessments, and gap analysis
Experience building and implementing maturity models, frameworks, or roadmaps in complex enterprise environments
Strong stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence senior leadership and drive change across federated technology teams
Excellent communication skills, with the ability to translate technical risk into business impact
Nice to have:
Professional certifications such as CISSP, CISM, CCSK, CCSP, or equivalent
Hands-on knowledge of cloud security (AWS, Azure, GCP) and container orchestration platforms (e.g., Kubernetes)
Experience in international and diverse environments, with exposure to regulatory engagement
Familiarity with engineering excellence practices such as SLSA, supply chain security, SBOM, or secure developer tooling initiatives
