AI is being run everywhere, by humans and agents. Harmonic Security governs all of it. The AI Governance and Control (AIGC) platform understands user / agent intent and data context in real time, giving security teams visibility and control across every tool and workflow so companies can move faster with AI while minimizing risk. We operate in one of the fastest-moving spaces in tech: the emerging intersection of AI and cybersecurity. It's a market still being defined, and we're among the first to build natively for it - protecting sensitive data in real time, at the endpoint, with minimal friction for the teams using it. Enterprises get full visibility and control. Their people get to innovate without guardrails slowing them down. Named to the Rising in Cyber 2026 list, Harmonic is gaining serious recognition and serious traction. We're led by deep cybersecurity expertise and backed by investors who know the space: N47, Ten Eleven Ventures, and In Q Tel. As AI adoption inside the enterprise accelerates, the ability to safely observe, control, and enforce policy in real time isn't a nice to have. It's mission critical infrastructure. That's what we build. How We Work: AI First by Design Harmonic exists to help enterprises adopt AI safely and at scale. We hold ourselves to the same standard. Everyone at Harmonic actively uses AI tools to do their best work, from research and writing to building processes and automating workflows. We expect every new hire to bring curiosity about AI and a willingness to use it to work smarter, faster, and more creatively. For some roles, that means tinkering and staying open to new tools. For others, it means building entirely new systems with AI at the core. We'll be clear about what we expect for each role, and we'll give you the tools and support to get there. About the Team We sell security to some of the most demanding enterprise security teams in the world, and we've held ourselves to that bar from day one. Our engineers have already built a platform architecture we're genuinely proud of - strong foundations across authentication, data isolation, and secrets handling - but it's been built by generalist engineers who split their time across security and everything else on the roadmap. It's good precisely because good engineers cared about it, not because it had a specialist behind it. Now we want to bring in someone whose full time focus is security architecture, to take that foundation and push it further than a generalist team has the bandwidth to. This isn't an audit or compliance function, and it's not a rescue mission. It's an engineering one, building on top of something solid rather than starting from zero. About the Role The Senior DevOps Engineer is responsible for designing, building and maintaining the highly scalable infrastructure that powers our applications. This role is a blend of automation, infrastructure design and CI/CD pipeline development. What You'll Do Your primary focus is the automation and standardisation of our cloud infrastructure and deployment processes. Develop reusable modules to enforce consistency and best practices across all environments. Design and implement highly available and fault tolerant architectures on AWS utilising multiple AZs and regions. Build, maintain, and optimise CI/CD pipelines using GitLab CI/CD. Manage and configure GitLab Runners (specifically on Docker or AWS EC2/ECS) for scalable and efficient job execution, ensuring fast feedback loops for developers. What Success Looks Like You evangelise and implement DevOps best practices, including shift left security, monitoring, alerting and logging. The platform provides an outstanding experience with minimal friction for both the development and operations teams, allowing everyone to do their best work. Highly available, well maintained platform backed by repeatable processes that allow us to meet and exceed the highest standards for security and resilience.

Full time
AI is being run everywhere, by humans and agents. Harmonic Security governs all of it. The AI Governance and Control (AIGC) platform understands user / agent intent and data context in real time, giving security teams visibility and control across every tool and workflow so companies can move faster with AI while minimizing risk. We operate in one of the fastest-moving spaces in tech: the emerging intersection of AI and cybersecurity. It's a market still being defined, and we're among the first to build natively for it - protecting sensitive data in real time, at the endpoint, with minimal friction for the teams using it. Enterprises get full visibility and control. Their people get to innovate without guardrails slowing them down. Named to the Rising in Cyber 2026 list, Harmonic is gaining serious recognition and serious traction. We're led by deep cybersecurity expertise and backed by investors who know the space: N47, Ten Eleven Ventures, and In Q Tel. As AI adoption inside the enterprise accelerates, the ability to safely observe, control, and enforce policy in real time isn't a nice to have. It's mission critical infrastructure. That's what we build. How We Work: AI First by Design Harmonic exists to help enterprises adopt AI safely and at scale. We hold ourselves to the same standard. Everyone at Harmonic actively uses AI tools to do their best work, from research and writing to building processes and automating workflows. We expect every new hire to bring curiosity about AI and a willingness to use it to work smarter, faster, and more creatively. For some roles, that means tinkering and staying open to new tools. For others, it means building entirely new systems with AI at the core. We'll be clear about what we expect for each role, and we'll give you the tools and support to get there. About the Team We sell security to some of the most demanding enterprise security teams in the world, and we've held ourselves to that bar from day one. Our engineers have already built a platform architecture we're genuinely proud of - strong foundations across authentication, data isolation, and secrets handling - but it's been built by generalist engineers who split their time across security and everything else on the roadmap. It's good precisely because good engineers cared about it, not because it had a specialist behind it. Now we want to bring in someone whose full time focus is security architecture, to take that foundation and push it further than a generalist team has the bandwidth to. This isn't an audit or compliance function, and it's not a rescue mission. It's an engineering one, building on top of something solid rather than starting from zero. About the Role The Senior DevOps Engineer is responsible for designing, building and maintaining the highly scalable infrastructure that powers our applications. This role is a blend of automation, infrastructure design and CI/CD pipeline development. What You'll Do Your primary focus is the automation and standardisation of our cloud infrastructure and deployment processes. Develop reusable modules to enforce consistency and best practices across all environments. Design and implement highly available and fault tolerant architectures on AWS utilising multiple AZs and regions. Build, maintain, and optimise CI/CD pipelines using GitLab CI/CD. Manage and configure GitLab Runners (specifically on Docker or AWS EC2/ECS) for scalable and efficient job execution, ensuring fast feedback loops for developers. What Success Looks Like You evangelise and implement DevOps best practices, including shift left security, monitoring, alerting and logging. The platform provides an outstanding experience with minimal friction for both the development and operations teams, allowing everyone to do their best work. Highly available, well maintained platform backed by repeatable processes that allow us to meet and exceed the highest standards for security and resilience.

750 Per Day, Inside IR35, 6 month contract Based in Reading Hybrid Working (2 or 3 days per week on site) To Start ASAP Your new company Step into a pivotal leadership role within a large, forward-thinking Upper Tier Authority delivering a high-profile Local Government Reorganisation (LGR). This is a once in a generation transformation that will reshape how services are delivered, bringing together multiple councils into a single, modern, unitary organisation. This ambitious proposal is focused on creating a simpler, more efficient model that improves outcomes for residents while strengthening financial sustainability and operational resilience. As the programme now moves from proposal into delivery, there is a strong demand for Programme Managers who have already been involved in recent LGR activity, particularly during the early-stage conversations and proposal development phases within other local authorities. This experience is seen as critical in ensuring momentum and delivery confidence from day one. Your new role This is a senior Programme Manager role leading one of the core workstreams within a complex LGR programme. You will be responsible for translating strategic intent into structured delivery, ensuring your workstream progresses from planning through to implementation in line with programme objectives. You will take ownership of delivery across key areas such as systems, finance, procurement, relationships or customer experience, ensuring that plans, milestones and dependencies are clearly defined and actively managed. Working closely with senior stakeholders, you will bring structure, pace and clarity, ensuring work moves from workshops and design into tangible, deliverable outcomes. A key requirement for this role is prior involvement in recent LGR programmes within the last 6-9 months, particularly where you have contributed to early conversations, shaping proposals or supporting submissions. This experience will enable you to quickly understand the context, anticipate challenges and accelerate delivery as the programme progresses. Candidates with this background will be strongly prioritised. Operating within a multi-council environment, you will manage complexity across different organisations, systems and ways of working, ensuring alignment and consistency while navigating local variation. You will play a critical role in identifying risks, resolving cross-cutting challenges and ensuring dependencies across workstreams are understood and managed effectively. You will also contribute to programme-level decision-making, providing clear updates, options and recommendations to senior leadership, ensuring that delivery remains on track and aligned to the broader transformation vision. This is a highly visible role where your ability to drive progress and maintain grip will be key to success. What you'll need to succeed You will bring significant experience leading complex programmes or workstreams within local government, with recent, hands-on involvement in Local Government Reorganisation activity being absolutely critical. We are specifically looking for candidates who have been involved in LGR programmes within the last 6-9 months, particularly those who have supported councils through the early-stage conversations, proposal development and submission phases. This experience is highly valuable as the programme moves from proposal into delivery and candidates with this background will be prioritised. You will have a strong track record of translating strategy into delivery, managing multiple priorities and working across organisational boundaries without direct authority. Experience managing interdependencies across systems, finance, procurement or service delivery functions is essential. You will be confident engaging senior stakeholders, influencing decisions and holding teams to account, with a clear focus on outcomes and delivery pace. Strong risk management capability, structured programme planning and excellent communication skills are key, alongside the ability to remain calm and effective in complex, fast-moving environments. Local government experience is a strict prerequisite for this role. What you'll get in return This role offers the opportunity to play a central part in delivering one of the most significant transformation programmes in the region. You will have direct influence over how services are shaped in the future, working at the heart of a high-profile programme with strong senior visibility. Alongside a competitive day rate, you will benefit from flexible working and strong potential for contract extension as the programme evolves.

The role will focus principally on the Security Operations capability tower , including the SOC and wider operational security services. It will define how each service should operate and mature over the next 6, 12 and 18 months across people, process, technology, governance and service integration. This is not primarily a security architecture role. The successful candidate must understand how Security Operations functions work in practice and be able to convert a target operating model into detailed services, processes, accountabilities and a credible transition roadmap. Role purpose: To develop the low-level operating and service designs for HMRC's future Security Operations capabilities, providing a clear and practical roadmap from the current environment to the agreed 2030 target state.The role will ensure that the future operating model is sufficiently detailed to support implementation, organisational restructuring, technology decisions, workforce planning and the transition from approximately 750 personnel to a proposed future-state organisation of approximately 280. Key responsibilities Review and validate the existing high-level design and Security Operations target operating model. Define the detailed scope, purpose and boundaries of the SOC and wider SecOps services. Decompose the Security Operations capability tower into clearly defined component services and sub-capabilities. Produce low-level service designs covering: People, roles, skills and capacity Processes, procedures and operational workflows Technology and tooling Data and information flows Governance, controls and decision rights Service ownership and accountability Interfaces with adjacent security and enterprise functions Service performance measures and reporting Sourcing and delivery model considerations Define how each service will operate at different maturity points. Develop a sequenced and achievable transformation roadmap, including dependencies, decision points, risks and enabling activities. Clarify the interfaces between the SOC and wider capabilities such as security engineering, threat intelligence, vulnerability management, incident response, GRC, architecture, product management and the Office of the CISO. Facilitate design workshops with operational leaders, service owners, technical specialists and customer workstream leads. Challenge assumptions constructively and ensure that proposed designs are operationally viable rather than merely theoretically sound. Identify opportunities for automation, standardisation, consolidation and improved use of technology. Support workforce and organisational design by defining future roles, responsibilities, skills and indicative capacity requirements. Establish measurable service outcomes, maturity criteria, KPIs and operational performance measures. Document design decisions, assumptions, dependencies and areas requiring further client agreement. Ensure that the detailed designs align with the overarching transformation principles and 2030 target state. Reasonable Adjustments: Respect and equality are core values to us. We are proud of the diverse and inclusive community we have built, and we welcome applications from people of all backgrounds and perspectives. Our success is driven by our people, united by the spirit of partnership to deliver the best resourcing solutions for our clients.

Job title: Founding Head of Public Sector Location: London; 4 days in-office, 1 day wfh Reports to: Chief Commercial Officer Cosine at a glance Cosine is the UK's frontier AI lab for autonomous software engineering - not another coding assistant, but our own models, agent stack, eval harnesses, and product layer. We build our agent tooling entirely in-house and post-train open-source models to deliver reliable, enterprise grade coding performance in security critical settings. Our offerings can be used as SaaS, deployed on VPC, on prem or fully air gapped. Through this flexability, we are able to service large scale, highly regulated enterprises and industries including defence, financial service and healthcare. We're backed by YC and were recently selected for the UK's sovereign AI programme. The company is at a rare stage: deep technical work, real enterprise pull, and a chance to shape how AI is deployed inside defence, banking, government, and other high trust environments. Mission Own Cosine's public sector engagement and GTM motion from founder led relationship building into a repeatable commercial engine. The role exists to build on Cosine's growing reputation across government, defence adjacent bodies, public sector technology teams, and the wider UK sovereign AI ecosystem, turning senior interest into deep institutional relationships, clearly understood priorities, and qualified commercial opportunities. This is a critical sector building role: part enterprise sales, part partnerships, part market development, part public sector navigation, and part GTM leadership. Core responsibilities 1. Lead engagement with public sector organisations and priority accounts Own Cosine's day to day engagement with priority public sector organisations, including central government departments, arm's length bodies, regulators, public agencies, national infrastructure bodies, and public sector technology teams. Build on Cosine's growing reputation in sovereign AI, secure deployment, and trusted AI engineering to create senior routes into the right organisations. Maintain a clear account map across key public sector organisations, including executive sponsors, digital and technology leaders, commercial/procurement stakeholders, policy teams, risk/security owners, and delivery teams. Move relationships from broad sovereign AI interest into specific, practical areas where Cosine can create value. 2. Build multi threaded senior relationships Develop relationships across multiple departments, divisions, seniority levels, and decision making layers in each target account. Engage CIO, CTO, CISO, CDIO, digital, data, engineering, architecture, commercial, procurement, transformation, policy, security, and operational stakeholders. Identify how priorities differ across teams, for example secure AI deployment, software assurance, legacy modernisation, operational resilience, cost reduction, productivity, national capability, procurement risk, and governance. Build enough trust that Cosine becomes part of the strategic conversation around sovereign AI adoption, not just another vendor responding to tenders. 3. Build Cosine's understanding of public sector sovereign AI priorities Run structured discovery across public sector organisations to understand what they truly care about in sovereign AI. Capture use cases, constraints, buying triggers, objections, governance requirements, security expectations, procurement routes, deployment models, and success metrics. Translate public sector customer signal into internal intelligence for sales, partnerships, product, research, engineering, marketing, and leadership. Build a sector view of where Cosine has the strongest right to win, including priority use cases, highest intent accounts, likely buyer personas, procurement routes, SI influence, and repeatable commercial narratives. Priority areas to explore include: Secure AI coding and software engineering inside sensitive or regulated public sector environments. AI adoption where source code, credentials, data, or infrastructure cannot leave the customer's control boundary. Legacy system modernisation and maintenance. Software assurance, auditability, testing, review, and governance. Productivity and resilience across public sector digital delivery teams. Deployment models across public cloud, customer VPC, on prem, secure environments, and air gapped environments where required. National capability, sovereign AI, and reducing dependency on foreign controlled AI infrastructure. 4. Build towards commercial opportunities Convert reputation, relationship building, and market education into qualified pipeline opportunities. Identify where there is a real public sector problem, accountable owner, budget route, technical champion, procurement path, and reason to act now. Shape opportunities into concrete next steps: workshops, technical deep dives, discovery sessions, pilots, proof of concepts, deployment planning, bid participation, or commercial proposals. Work with the wider GTM team to move qualified public sector opportunities through the sales cycle. Keep a clear view of account status, stakeholder map, open actions, risks, next steps, procurement routes, SI involvement, and commercial likelihood. The role should focus deeply on commercial pull: serious conversations, mapped accounts, live opportunities, pilots, bid routes, and ultimately revenue. 5. Work closely with systems integrators and delivery partners Work alongside Cosine's Head of Partnerships to build and manage relationships with the systems integrators, consultancies, and delivery partners that shape public sector buying. Identify where SIs can create routes into accounts, provide bid access, support delivery credibility, or help Cosine become part of larger transformation programmes. Build joint account plans with priority partners where there is a clear public sector opportunity. Support bid strategy, partner positioning, framework access, and teaming discussions where Cosine is best placed as a specialist sovereign AI or secure AI engineering partner. Ensure SI engagement is commercially purposeful, with clear ownership, target accounts, bid opportunities, and follow up actions. 6. Navigate public sector routes to market Build a clear view of the procurement and commercial routes that matter for Cosine in public sector. Understand where Cosine should pursue direct engagement, partner led opportunities, framework routes, innovation pathways, pilots, or inclusion in larger SI led bids. Help shape compliant engagement approaches that create trust without relying on frequent hosted events or activity that could create procurement issues. Use targeted briefings, structured discovery, partner conversations, written materials, and appropriate market engagement routes to progress opportunities. Work with legal, commercial, partnerships, and leadership to ensure public sector engagement is commercially useful and procurement aware. 7. Help build the GTM team in public sector Help define what the public sector GTM motion should become as Cosine scales. Build the early playbook for account selection, stakeholder mapping, discovery, qualification, partner led entry, SI engagement, bid strategy, pilot design, procurement navigation, and commercial progression. Help recruit, onboard, and develop future GTM hires focused on public sector. Establish the operating cadence for the sector: account reviews, pipeline tracking, partner follow up, bid tracking, customer insight capture, and internal reporting. Work closely with SDRs, partnerships, marketing, founders, enterprise sales, and the Head of Partnerships to make public sector a repeatable vertical. What good looks like in the first 6 months Multi threaded relationships established across the most important public sector accounts. The three top priority public sector accounts are established, with account maps, stakeholder coverage, routes to procurement, partner/SI strategy, and business cases set out. A structured view of public sector sovereign AI use cases, buyer priorities, objections, procurement routes, SI influence, and buying triggers. Qualified opportunities progressing into discovery, technical deep dives, pilots, bid discussions, partner motions, or commercial proposals. Clear working rhythm with the Head of Partnerships on SI engagement, bid routes, partner mapping, and public sector account strategy. A clear public sector GTM playbook that future hires can build from. Success metrics Relationship and market development Number of priority public sector accounts actively engaged. Number of senior stakeholder relationships built across target accounts. Number of multi threaded accounts with executive, technical, commercial, procurement, and partner coverage. Quality of customer insight captured on sovereign AI priorities, deployment requirements, procurement constraints, and use cases. Commercial progression Qualified public sector opportunities created. Workshops, technical deep dives, pilots, bid discussions, partner motions, or proposals initiated. Pipeline generated or influenced. . click apply for full job details
