Senior Security Consultant (Platform Security Engineer) - Permanent
Are you a security engineer who loves working with clients as much as you love the technical craft? We're growing our security practice at RiverSafe and looking for a Senior Security Consultant to join us in a hands-on, client-facing role.
The Role:
This isn't a back-office position. You'll sit at the intersection of security consulting, cloud engineering, and DevSecOps - delivering real technical outcomes for clients while also shaping proposals, driving presales, and growing accounts.
What you'll be doing:
- Delivering security assessments, gap analyses, and maturity reviews across cloud and platform environments
- Designing and implementing security controls across AWS, Azure, and GCP
- Embedding security into CI/CD pipelines and championing DevSecOps practices
- Leading client workshops and presenting findings to technical and executive audiences
- Supporting the full presales cycle - from qualification through to proposal and award
- Contributing to detection engineering, SIEM strategy, and SOC governance
What you'll bring:
- Strong cloud security experience across AWS, Azure, and/or GCP
- Hands-on with Terraform, Kubernetes, and IaC security
- DevSecOps mindset - CI/CD, SAST/DAST, shift-left security
- Identity & access security - Zero Trust, RBAC, MFA, SSO
- Client-facing confidence - you can present to a CISO as comfortably as a developer
- Familiarity with NIST CSF, CIS Controls, or ISO 27001
Relevant certifications (CISSP, CISM, AWS/Azure security, CKS) are a bonus, but breadth across domains matters more than any single credential.
London / Hybrid: 2-3 days per week in the office is required.
