You'll be joining the infrastructure team at a major global financial services firm, working hands-on across their full technology stack. The scope is broad - PoC and RFP/RFE initiatives, day-to-day operations, and support of live IoT systems including building management, lighting controls, occupancy monitoring, and air quality.
This isn't an narrow specialism role. You'll move between networking, server administration, automation scripting, and IoT/OT device support depending on what the day demands.

- Supporting, troubleshooting, and upgrading IoT/OT devices across Android, Windows, Linux, Unix, iOS
- Working with SecDesign teams to apply appropriate controls for integrated solutions
- Ensuring production systems stay compliant within the Hygiene programme
Qualifications
- Strong network and security background - you understand layers, configs, and authentication flows inside out
