Responsibilities

We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join the Assured Build team, engineering and scaling secure, automated solutions across LBG. This role is focused on building the engineering capability that underpins Assured Build – building automation, integrating security baselines into engineering workflows, and enabling secure‑by‑design delivery by embedding Security Relevant Configuration (SRC) controls into code, pipelines, and platform tooling.

You’ll develop and enhance services that reduce manual effort, improve consistency, and increase coverage of security assurance across infrastructure and software. Working in an agile, DevOps‑led environment, you’ll contribute to enterprise‑scale automation (CI/CD integration, tooling, data‑driven reporting) to deliver resilient, scalable, and frictionless security outcomes.

  • Assuring security configurations in both static build artefacts and CI/CD pipelines
  • Driving greater automation, consistency, and reuse of security artefacts
  • Embedding security earlier into the engineering lifecycle

Qualifications

  • Experience in software engineering and DevOps practices, preferably in large‑scale or enterprise environment
  • Experience with scripting and programming languages such as Python, JavaScript, PowerShell and working with pipelines or automation tooling
  • Hands‑on technical experience with the ability to write, fix, and improve code
  • A broad understanding of cyber security domains, including cloud security (Azure and/or GCP)
  • An outcome‑focused approach, delivering end‑to‑end solutions with attention to detail
  • Strong understanding of secure‑by‑design principles across the development lifecycle
  • Passion for automating repetitive tasks and improving engineering efficiency
  • Clear understanding of containerisation technologies and associated tooling (Docker, Kubernetes)
  • Experience with CI/CD pipelines and repository‑based workflows such as GitHub

Additional Skills

  • Exposure to vulnerability scanning, configuration assurance, or security tooling
  • Working with databases and data‑driven solutions
  • Building automation or workflow solutions (e.g. Power Platform)

Benefits

  • Generous pension contribution of up to 15%
  • Annual bonus award, subject to Group performance
  • Share schemes including free shares
  • Benefits that can be adapted to lifestyle, such as discounted shopping
  • 30 days holiday, plus bank holidays
  • Range of wellbeing initiatives and generous parental leave policies
