our culture >Primer is looking for a Security Engineer to help us detect, investigate, and respond to threats across our cloud infrastructure

You'll take ownership of a meaningful slice of our detection and response capability — tuning what our SIEM catches, building the automation that speeds up how we react, and being a first responder when something looks wrong.

What you'll be doingPlan and deliver detection and response work end-to-end — from a new detection rule to a fully automated response — within your area of ownership.

Build, tune and maintain detections across our SIEM (Elastic) and AWS environment, closing gaps that existing coverage misses.

• Own an investigation queue: triage, investigate, escalate and resolve security incidents, and write up findings clearly enough to stand on their own.

Build runbooks and automations (Python, and no-code tools like Zapier or Tines) to cut manual work out of triage and response.

Make and document risk decisions in your area, and know when to pull in others.

• Support our compliance programme by keeping the controls you own audit-ready and contributing evidence for audits (e.

SOC 2, PCI DSS).

Use Terraform and Python to build and maintain the infrastructure behind your detections and tooling.

Join our on-call rotation for incident response and monitoring.
