Manchester, United Kingdom Maxwell Bond Full time

Cyber Security Operations Engineer – Tech For Good Location: Manchester / Hybrid – 2 days a week in office Salary: Up to £38,000 About the Opportunity This is a rare chance to step out of traditional IT support and into a hands‑on, technically focused security role where you’ll be working directly with cloud infrastructure, automation, and modern DevOps/security tooling. If you’ve been waiting for the opportunity to move away from helpdesk‑style work and into real cyber engineering, this is it You’ll be joining a growing tech function that is reshaping the way security is delivered across the business – focusing on protecting production AWS cloud systems rather than day‑to‑day device support or compliance. This is a role with huge progression potential: the successful candidate could realistically double their salary within three years. Key Responsibilities Monitor and improve security across production AWS cloud environments. Work closely with DevOps on threat detection, configuration‑as‑code, and cloud security controls. Investigate and respond to security alerts using logs, dashboards, and tooling (e.g., Cloudflare, AWS security groups). Identify risks, misconfigurations, and anomalies in logs or infrastructure and recommend improvements. Support continuous hardening of infrastructure through tools like Terraform, CLI workflows, and automation. Contribute to building scalable, secure infrastructure aligned with best practice. Ideal Candidate Profile You should have: Experience in IT support, service desk, networking, or infrastructure (2nd/3rd line). Solid understanding of networking fundamentals (TCP/IP, firewalls, routing). Hands‑on experience with Linux or command line tools. Exposure to cloud platforms (AWS ideal, but Azure/GCP also fine). An interest in automation, IaC, DevOps tooling, and learning AWS security in real environments. Nice to Have (not essential) CompTIA Security+, Network+, CySA+, or similar security certifications. Experience with any of the following: Terraform Cloudflare Containers Scripting (Python/Bash/PowerShell) Security labs, hands‑on exercises, or home‑lab projects. A computing or cyber‑related degree. Why This Role Stands Out Focused on real technical security, not box‑ticking. Exposure to modern cloud and DevOps tooling from day one. Opportunity to level up your skills quickly with strong senior support. A team that embraces modern practices -including using AI sensibly as part of engineering workflow. Clear progression into Cloud Security, DevSecOps, or Senior Cyber roles. Ethically sound business that is genuinely trying to improve people’s health. Interview Process Initial meet & greet (10 minutes, informal). Technical interview Includes a short practical section reviewing logs/configurations and discussing what you spot. Final interview & offer. No coding tests or take-home exercises required. #J-18808-Ljbffr
