About the Role
We’re seeking a Senior Software Engineer to join the Assured Build team, where you’ll engineer and scale secure, automated solutions across Lloyds Banking Group (LBG).
This role focuses on bolstering engineering capability by:
- Designing and scaling automation for secure infrastructure
- Integrating security baselines into engineering workflows
- Embedding Security Relevant Configuration (SRC) controls into code, pipelines, and platform tooling
- Developing frictionless, scalable security solutions with a focus on DevOps-led delivery
What You’ll Be Doing
You’ll contribute to enterprise-scale automation (including CI/CD integration, tooling, and data-driven reporting), delivering resilient, scalable security outcomes.
Within this, you’ll be largely responsible for:
- Assuring security configurations in static build artefacts and CI/CD pipelines
- Reducing manual effort, increasing consistency, and improving coverage across infrastructure and software
- Driving automation, reuse of security artefacts, and embedding security earlier in the development lifecycle
