Experienced Senior Security & Compliance Engineer to take ownership of security across the business and build a scalable security capability.

Обязанности

This is a critical hire and an opportunity to become our first dedicated security specialist, with genuine ownership and influence across the business.
While we already have established compliance activity and SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certifications, security responsibilities currently sit across different teams. We’re now looking for someone who can bring that together, identify where we need to strengthen our approach and provide dedicated technical security leadership as we scale.
This is first and foremost a technical security role. You’ll sit within Engineering and work directly alongside the teams building our technology, participating in architecture discussions, development workflows and technical decision-making rather than operating as a separate security function reviewing work after the fact.
You’ll take ownership of security architecture across our technology stack, embed shift-left security practices into how we build, strengthen our cloud and application security, and ensure we remain ahead of both established and emerging threats.
As our use of AI continues to develop, you’ll also help us understand and respond to new AI-related security risks and attack vectors, ensuring our security approach evolves alongside our technology.
Compliance remains an important part of the role. You’ll help strengthen our SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 posture and support areas including GDPR, data residency and enterprise customer requirements. However, we’re looking for someone who brings strong hands-on security expertise first, alongside the governance and compliance knowledge needed to operate effectively across both areas.
You won’t simply inherit a security playbook, you’ll have the opportunity to help build one.
The role is based in London on a hybrid basis, with a minimum of 3 days per week in the office, enabling you to work closely with our Engineering, Product and wider business teams.

At , we’ve created the world’s first engineering-grade Augmented Reality solution for construction. Our product, The Atom, is used on major projects worldwide to bring designs to life on-site and help teams build more accurately, efficiently and with fewer mistakes.
As a Series B business scaling across the UK, US and Europe, our technology – and the security environment supporting it – is becoming increasingly sophisticated.
Our stack spans Kubernetes on Azure, mobile and embedded AR, REST APIs, real-time collaboration and AI-powered data pipelines. We already hold SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001, but as our product, customers and use of AI continue to evolve, we now need dedicated security expertise within the business.
We’re looking for an experienced Senior Security & Compliance Engineer to take ownership of security across and help build a security capability that can scale with us.
Take ownership of security architecture and technical security across ’s technology environment.
Assess our current security posture, identify vulnerabilities and control gaps, and develop pragmatic remediation plans.
Architect and strengthen security across our Azure cloud environment, including Kubernetes clusters, databases and data pipelines.
Own and improve areas including IAM, zero-trust networking, secrets management, RBAC, pod security and encryption.
Embed shift-left security into engineering workflows, integrating SAST, DAST, dependency scanning and SCA into our CI/CD pipelines.
Partner directly with Engineering and Product teams on architectural decisions, technical trade-offs and secure-by-design development.
Run threat-modelling exercises and support developers with secure coding practices across Node.js, React Native and C++ environments.
Own vulnerability management, including triage, risk prioritisation, remediation tracking and incident response where required.
Develop and improve the logging, monitoring and alerting capabilities needed to identify and respond to security threats.
Assess emerging threats, including those associated with AI-enabled products, tooling and new attack methodologies, and ensure our security approach continues to evolve.
Strengthen our SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 controls, identifying gaps and improving implementation where needed.
Support compliance cycles including controls testing, evidence gathering and auditor coordination.
Support GDPR and data residency requirements across our infrastructure and data pipelines.
Engage with enterprise customers and prospects on ’s security posture when required.
Automate security controls and processes wherever possible rather than relying on manual intervention.
Help establish the standards, tooling and operating model for a security capability that can scale with the business.
Demonstrable in-depth hands-on technical security experience, ideally spanning application, cloud and/or infrastructure security.
Strong technical security capability and the confidence to own security decisions end-to-end rather than operating purely in an advisory or governance capacity.
Strong cloud security experience, ideally Azure, although significant AWS or GCP expertise with the ability to transition quickly to Azure would also be considered.
Hands-on experience securing Kubernetes/containerised environments, including IAM, RBAC, network segmentation, secrets management, image scanning and pod security.
Experience integrating security tooling into CI/CD environments, including SAST, DAST, SCA and dependency scanning.
Experience with infrastructure-as-code security and technologies such as Terraform, Helm or GitOps.
Understanding of application and API security, including OAuth 2.0, JWT, mTLS and secure development practices.
Experience identifying vulnerabilities, assessing technical risk and driving remediation.
Comfortable writing automation using Python, Go, Bash or similar to operationalise security controls.
Practical experience working with SOC 2 Type II and/or ISO 27001, including identifying gaps and strengthening controls.
Current knowledge of the evolving cybersecurity landscape and an interest in emerging threats, particularly those associated with AI.
Strong communication skills and the ability to translate security requirements for both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
A pragmatic, collaborative approach, you understand that great security enables engineering teams rather than creating unnecessary barriers.
Experience building or scaling security capability within a high-growth or Series A/B technology business would be particularly valuable. You’ll understand the balance between addressing today’s risks and building security foundations capable of supporting where the business is heading next.
Above all, we’re looking for someone who is technically strong, curious and proactive, someone engineers want to work with, who can bring credibility to security conversations while remaining pragmatic about how we build and ship great technology.
From the outset, you’ll have the opportunity to make an impact across areas including:
Azure and Kubernetes security architecture
Application and API security
Secure software development and shift-left security
Vulnerability management and incident response
AI-related security and emerging threat management
SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 maturity
Security automation and CI/CD integration
Enterprise customer security requirements
Building ’s longer-term security capability and roadmap
