About the Client
Our client builds a sovereign AI platform for organisations that can't compromise on security, including defence, national security, central government, policing and heavily regulated industries. They deliver real capability into some of the UK's most sensitive environments, so every feature is threat modelled, hardened and properly assured before it goes near customer data.
Security is central to the business and is now getting serious investment. The company is scaling a dedicated assurance function so it can assure fast without slowing delivery down, and this hire is one of the founding roles in it.
The Role
You will be the independent assurance voice across the business, covering the cloud estate, the corporate environment and the AI capability built into the platform. You will set the security baselines that DevOps, IT and Product Security Engineering build to, then prove those baselines are being met through continuous monitoring and independent testing. Self-attestation won't be accepted as proof.
The scope is wide and will keep growing. You will work with engineering, product, IT, commercial and leadership, and directly with customers, so the role suits someone curious and self-driven who wants a real hand in shaping how a security function grows and directly influencing new capability for defence.
Responsibilities
Help shape and deliver the overall security strategy, and play a key part in building out the assurance function as the business grows
Set the security baselines for cloud, IT and product teams, and verify compliance against them independently
Specify the evidence security testing needs to produce, and assure the processes and pipelines used to build the product
Embed, integrate and continually improve security tooling across the full SDLC
