Security Infrastructure Engineer – Space & Technology

Standard 8 is working with a highly technical organisation operating in the UK space sector, and we’re looking for a Security Infrastructure Engineer to join their growing technology team.

You’ll work across a varied infrastructure estate, helping keep critical systems secure, resilient and properly maintained. It’s hands-on work covering 3rd line support, cloud, Linux, IAM, vulnerability management, SIEM/EDR, patching, hardening and incident response.

You’ll also get involved in infrastructure upgrades, migrations and technology refreshes, working alongside infrastructure, networking and application engineers.

What we’re looking for

  • 3-5+ years across infrastructure, security or DevSecOps
  • AWS, Azure or GCP
  • Linux administration and system hardening
  • IAM, SSO, MFA and privileged access
  • SIEM, EDR and vulnerability management
  • TCP/IP, DNS, firewalls and VPNs
  • Terraform, Ansible, Python or Bash
  • Exposure to Docker/Kubernetes
  • Strong troubleshooting and incident investigation skills

Experience with ISO 27001, NIST or CIS Benchmarks would be useful, while certifications such as CISSP, CCSP or Security+ are a bonus rather than a deal-breaker.

This should suit an engineer who enjoys getting under the bonnet, fixing problems properly and improving how infrastructure is secured – with the added attraction of doing it in an industry where the technology is genuinely interesting.
