Overview

We're looking for a hands‑on Network Security Engineer with strong Zscaler (or equivalent SASE/SSE) experience to help bring structure and clarity to a complex, evolving environment. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in ambiguity, enjoys untangling legacy systems, and can turn one‑off solutions into repeatable, scalable processes.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Analyse and map application traffic flows across complex network environments
  • Lead the discovery and onboarding of applications, including undocumented and legacy systems
  • Design and implement secure access models aligned to Zero Trust principles
  • Work hands‑on with Zscaler or equivalent platforms (e.g. Netskope, Palo Alto Prisma Access)
  • Define and standardise repeatable onboarding processes for applications
  • Investigate and troubleshoot real‑world application behaviour (file transfers, batch jobs, user access patterns)
  • Collaborate with PMs and BAs while acting as the technical lead/driver
  • Translate technical findings into clear, actionable outcomes for stakeholders

What We're Looking For

Core Skills

  • Strong networking expertise – deep understanding of traffic flow, routing, and application interaction
  • A security‑first mindset – experience with Zero Trust, segmentation, and access control
  • Hands‑on experience with Zscaler or similar (SSE/SASE, proxies, secure gateways)
  • Solid application awareness – understanding how applications communicate and behave in real environments

Delivery & Approach

  • Proven experience onboarding applications in complex or poorly documented environments
  • Ability to move from ad‑hoc problem‑solving to structured, repeatable processes
  • Comfortable working independently with minimal direction
  • Proactive, able to hit the ground running and take ownership

Problem Solving

  • Strong analytical and investigative mindset
  • Comfortable dealing with ambiguity and legacy complexity
  • Practical, common‑sense approach to diagnosing issues

Communication

  • Confident communicator who can extract information from non‑technical or disengaged stakeholders
  • Clearly explain technical concepts and recommended actions
