Do you want a role that allows you to focus on the ethical hacking aspect of IT Security, particularly application security and code analysis? You may already be in the Cyber Security, or perhaps you’re a Software Engineer with a keen interest in the security world. Either way, look no further, this may be the perfect opportunity for you!

Joining a globally-recognisable online business with over 50 million customers worldwide, you’ll be joining a team of attackers, finding out who’s infiltrating or playing the system. You’ll use your skillset in coding and hacking to review code that’s coming down from various Development teams. They’re working on high transaction mobile and public-facing websites which experience huge traffic. You’ll be able to develop your understanding of code vulnerabilities, particularly open source, and security testing.

You’ll be able to use and develop your skills with automated and manual application security testing tools, cryptography, SQL injection, Cross-Site Scripting, Burp Suite amongst many more.

Your new teammates, who range from Grads to expert-level, are the kind of Cyber Security Analysts who love to hack in their own time, pick locks, learn from HackTheBox, and chase bug bounties. We’d love you to be in the office 2 days a week because you’ll be part of a new team and you’ll find it really useful building relationships with a wide variety of technical stakeholders. You’ll know better than me how critical it is to respond to threats, so being in amongst it will be very helpful.

As a Cyber Security Analyst, you will experience a down-to-earth atmosphere that values efficiency over bureaucracy, where you will get exposed to the kind of experience and scale that you would rarely get anywhere else – that’s the feedback from people that have interviewed here for me!

There’s a great commitment to internal mobility and promoting from within: you’ll have boundless opportunities to learn new technologies and advance your career.
