Assist in the adoption of best practices for securing cloud-native architectures
  • Security Integration into SDLC & CI/CD Pipelines: Collaborate with Development, Platform, and QA teams to integrate security best practices into the software development lifecycle (SDLC) and CI/CD pipelines. Ensure security is prioritised through automation tools, security testing, and vulnerability scanning as part of the continuous delivery process.
  • Security Assessments & Incident Response: Conduct security assessments, vulnerability scans and risk analyses to identify and address potential security weaknesses within cloud environments. Support the security operations team in incident response efforts related to cloud security incidents, ensuring timely detection, containment, and remediation.
  • Staying Current on Threat Intelligence & Industry Trends: Continuously research and stay up to date on emerging threats, vulnerabilities, and security trends within cloud infrastructure, container security, and DevSecOps practices. Regularly evaluate new security tools, frameworks, and technologies to enhance the organisation’s cloud security posture.
  • Security Training & Mentorship: Provide ongoing cloud security training, guidance, and mentorship to Engineering and Platform teams, fostering a security-first culture within the organisation. Ensure that teams are well-equipped to identify, understand, and mitigate cloud security risks and align with established security standards and frameworks.

We'd love to hear from you if you have...

  • AWS Expertise & Cloud Security Experience: Proven experience in implementing and managing robust security controls across AWS environments, with a strong understanding of cloud-native security best practices. Familiarity with other major cloud platforms such as GCP and Azure is highly desirable. Experience working with web-based Git repositories (e.g., GitHub, GitLab) and cloud services such as AWS Lambda, API Gateway, and other serverless architectures to ensure secure configurations and operations. Strong understanding of cloud security frameworks, such as AWS Well-Architected Framework and CIS Benchmarks.
  • Networking Skills: Solid experience with cloud networking concepts and services, including configuring and securing Virtual Private Clouds (VPCs), Subnets, Security Groups, and Network ACLs. Expertise in implementing and managing Content Delivery Networks (CDNs), Web Application Firewalls (WAF), and DDoS protection. Ability to design and enforce security policies that align with best practices for cloud networking and ensure secure application delivery.
  • Infrastructure & Compliance as Code: Comprehensive knowledge of Infrastructure as Code (IaC) practices, including the use of tools like Terraform or AWS CloudFormation to automate the provisioning and management of cloud resources. Strong understanding of Policy as Code frameworks such as OPA or AWS config to enforce security policies and compliance requirements automatically across the infrastructure. Experience in driving Cloud Security maturity in fast-paced, agile environments, and advocating for security automation and DevSecOps practices to streamline security governance.
  • An Engineering Mindset: Troubleshooting and problem-solving skills to quickly identify security issues and gaps within automated processes.

Why Cyber Security Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Cyber security used to be viewed primarily as a technical discipline: firewalls, encryption, intrusion detection, penetration testing. In the UK today, it’s far broader. Organisations now face complex legal frameworks, ethical dilemmas, human-behaviour risks, communication challenges & usability hurdles. This shift means cyber security careers are becoming more multidisciplinary. From protecting NHS patient records to defending financial services, securing supply chains & safeguarding national infrastructure, cyber security now touches every sector. Employers increasingly want professionals who understand law, ethics, psychology, linguistics & design alongside traditional technical skills. In this article, we’ll explore why UK cyber security careers are expanding in this way, how these five disciplines shape the profession, and what job-seekers & employers need to know to thrive in this new landscape.
