Job Title: Senior Software Engineer – Security

Salary: Up to £120k + £20k–£50k equity

Location: London (3 office days/week)

Industry: B2B SaaS

Stage: Series A, backed by tier-1 VCs

Why you’ll love this role:

• Founding security engineer role with real ownership over systems
• Modern serverless stack: AWS, TypeScript, IaC
• Equity with meaningful upside
• High-impact opportunity to design security from the ground up

Note: This role does not offer relocation or sponsorship

We’re building a fast-growing SaaS platform that’s redefining how businesses buy. As our first dedicated security engineer, you’ll shape the security vision, drive implementation, and ensure security is an enabler for growth not a blocker.

You’ll be fully embedded in the platform engineering team, building new security features, creating testing frameworks, and hardening our serverless AWS infrastructure. Security is built in from day one, so you’ll be designing, implementing, and evolving systems that stay ahead of emerging threats.

About 10–15% of your time will be spent helping enterprise clients understand architecture, frameworks, and secure connections, while demonstrating how security is integrated into our software lifecycle.

This is a high-ownership role for someone passionate about engineering, delivery, and meaningful impact. You’ll build the security function, influence engineering culture, and scale security as the company grows.

✅ What we’re looking for:

• Strong cloud-native SaaS engineering experience with a security focus
• Deep AWS & serverless expertise (IAM, networking, KMS, hardening)
• Proven track record of designing and rolling out security features proactively
• High ownership mindset, bias for action, and passion for building secure, scalable systems
