    • Mentor early‑career Security Operations engineers.
    • Plan and deliver work within Canonical's agile engineering framework.
    • Contribute to open source security.
    • Publish blog posts, whitepapers, and conference presentations.

    Qualifications

    • Exceptional academic track record.
    • Undergraduate degree in Computer Science or STEM, or a compelling narrative about an alternative path.
    • 10+ years of relevant professional experience.
    • Professional cybersecurity experience, preferably working or leading a Security Operations Center.
    • Professional engineering experience.
    • Eagerness to contribute to open source security.
    • Proficiency in common scripting languages, such as Python and Bash.
    • Knowledge of Git, GitOps, Infrastructure‑as‑Code, and common orchestration platforms (e.g., Kubernetes).

    Preferred Skills and Experience

    • Familiarity with security frameworks such as the NIST CSF, CIS CSC, and ISO 27001.
    • Knowledge of security architecture and market‑leading security tools.
    • Experience in a security operations team or a security operations center.
    • Experience in offensive or defensive security teams with hands‑on ability.
    • Experience with advanced persistent threats.
    • Proficiency in additional programming languages, such as Golang.

    Benefits


    We consider geographical location, experience, and performance in shaping compensation worldwide. We revisit compensation annually (and more often for graduates and associates) to ensure we recognise outstanding performance. In addition to base pay, we offer a performance‑driven annual bonus. We provide all team members with additional benefits, which reflect our values and ideals. We balance our programs to meet local needs and ensure fairness globally.

    • Distributed work environment with twice‑yearly team sprints in person.
    • Personal learning and development budget of USD 2,000 per year.
    • Annual compensation review.
    • Recognition rewards.
    • Annual holiday leave.
