Head of InfoSec Engineering The Role The Infosec Engineering team is responsible for defining and implementing technology that improves the security of our estate and makes it easier for engineers to make better security choices. The team works closely with the Infosec team, who are responsible for SecOps and risk compliance, as well as the other infrastructure and development teams. As the manager of this small team, you should have some experience as team or technology lead and be familiar with the technical detail of the work. For example, one day you may be working with vendors to select the next network monitoring hardware/software, and the next helping automate IAM/JLT processes using Python against an API. This is a very collaborative role, and you will work with engineers and managers across Man at all levels. The role requires you to be able to understand technology to a deep level, but also communicate to stakeholders, and provide guidance and leadership. You will be an ambassador and champion for improving security, with a passion for how security can be improved balancing the trade-off between productivity and risk. Our Technology Our end-user platform consists of a mix of Windows and Mac laptops and desktops. We operate a hybrid WFH model, so many users are connected over our GlobalProtect VPN. On servers we run a mix of Windows and Linux (physical, and virtualized in VMWare and Openstack). Linux is used to provide a developer/researcher desktop environment, accessed through Citrix. We run a mix of Crowdstrike, Proofpoint, Tessian, Tenable and other 3rd party tools to monitor and gather information about our estate. In addition we build tools using primarily Python to automate solutions. Our technologists and researchers use a constantly evolving set of systems, tools, and libraries. Most of our code is in Python, with the full scientific stack: numpy, scipy, pandas, scikit-learn to name a few of the open-source libraries we use extensively. We implement the systems that require the highest data throughput in Java and C++. We use Airflow for workflow management, Kafka for data pipelines, Bitbucket for source control, Jenkins for continuous integration, Grafana + Prometheus for metrics collection, ELK for log shipping and monitoring, Docker and Kubernetes for containerisation, OpenStack for our private cloud, Ansible and Terraform for architecture automation, and Slack for internal communication. Working Here Man Technology has a small company feel. It is flat structured, open, transparent and collaborative, and you will have plenty of opportunity to have enormous impact on the firm. We are actively engaged with the broader technology community. We host and sponsor London's PyData and Machine Learning Meetups We open-source some of our technology. See We regularly talk at leading industry conferences, and tweet about relevant technology and how we're using it. We're fortunate enough to have a fantastic open-plan office overlooking the River Thames, and continually strive to make our environment a great place in which to work. We offer competitive compensation, a generous holiday allowance, various health and other flexible benefits. We are also committed to continuous learning and development via coaching, mentoring, regular conference attendance and sponsoring academic and professional qualifications. Technology and Business Skills We strive to hire the brightest and most highly skilled and passionate technologists. Essential Excellent distributed team management and communication skills A track record of delivering complex technology projects with stakeholder interaction Great technology skills Proficient on Linux platforms with software development knowledge. Ability to interact with, and develop, APIs - ideally in Python. Ability to survey and evaluate the software/hardware landscape for solutions and pick the best fit solution from a range of criteria. Advantageous An understanding of financial markets and instruments Experience with DevOps methodology and tooling for software development Previous experience working with IAM / IGA tools Knowledge of Windows and Active Directory Personal Attributes Strong academic record and a degree (or equivalent industrial experience) with high mathematical and computing content e.g. Computer Science, Mathematics, Engineering or Physics from a leading university Strong interpersonal skills; able to establish and maintain a close working relationship with your team, quantitative researchers, traders and senior business people alike Intellectually robust with a keenly analytic approach to problem solving Self-organised with the ability to effectively manage time across multiple projects and with competing business demands and priorities Focused on delivering value to the business with relentless efforts to improve process Confident communicator; able to argue a point concisely and deal positively with conflicting views.
