Cyber Security Engineer
Fully Remote | £50,000 | UK Applicants Only
My client is looking for a Cyber Security Engineer to join a growing cyber security team, supporting customers with the deployment, configuration and ongoing improvement of modern security solutions.
This is a technical, hands-on position with a strong customer-facing element. You’ll work across multiple client environments, providing engineering expertise across security platforms, cloud technologies, SIEM/SOAR and wider security operations. You’ll also have the opportunity to contribute to technical projects, advise customers, produce documentation and work alongside experienced security consultants and engineers.
The Role
- Deploy, configure and support security technologies across customer environments.
- Lead or support migrations from existing security platforms to new solutions.
- Work with technologies such as Microsoft Defender, Sentinel, Palo Alto and Google SecOps.
- Troubleshoot security platforms by analyzing logs, investigating issues and working with vendor support teams where required.
- Develop scripts and automation to improve security operations and reduce manual processes.
- Support SIEM and SOAR deployments, configuration and ongoing optimization.
- Assist with security assessments, technical reviews and customer requirements.
- Produce clear technical documentation, reports and architecture diagrams.
- Work directly with technical and non-technical customers, explaining solutions and providing practical guidance.
- Manage multiple projects and priorities while maintaining a high standard of delivery.
- Occasionally provide out-of-hours support for planned migrations, cutovers or maintenance.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
