Security Engineer - Hedge Fund (A2DA859)
Security Engineer – Greenfield Role
Referment is partnering with a newly launched, technology-driven investment firm to hire a Security Engineer who will play a pivotal role in building the firm's security function from the ground up.
This is a genuine greenfield opportunity where you'll have significant ownership over security architecture, tooling, and processes from day one. Working alongside a highly technical engineering team and senior leadership, you'll help establish a modern, engineering-led security programme designed to scale with the business.
Responsibilities
- Design, build, and own detection and response capabilities, including alerting, threat detection, canaries, honeypots, and incident response workflows
- Implement security controls across cloud, infrastructure, and application environments
- Develop and enhance authentication, authorisation, identity, and certificate management frameworks
- Partner closely with software and infrastructure engineers to embed security throughout the development lifecycle
- Define the long-term security architecture, standards, and strategy as the platform evolves

- Experience securing modern cloud-native environments
- Strong understanding of IAM, authentication, authorisation, PKI, and identity security

- Collaborative culture with senior leadership
