Our technology stack is built on modern open-source components, both enabling day-to-day research and development, and supporting our 24hr trading. With adoption of AI-agents we are investing in security as a first-class concern. Man has a sophisticated AI platform – MAIA – that offers the best foundation models on our modern technology stack. As agents become more powerful, the security platform which supports safe agentic workflows is critical. The Senior Security Engineer will build and run the components that put these principles into practice: a policy engine and APIs that allows applications, AI agents and users to authenticate. This infrastructure will support authorisation with scoped short-lived credentials. This is a hands-on engineering role, securing Man's applications and services. **Role Responsibilities** **Platform Engineering** - Design, build and operate security platform services and APIs such as policy decision, just-in-time access and short-lived credential issuance. - Write and maintain policy-as-code that is tested, version-controlled and deployed through GitOps. - Integrate the platform with identity providers (Entra/AD), secrets management (Vault) and existing internal infrastructure (Keycloak, Sailpoint). - Run services to production standards for reliability, performance and observability, including 2nd line on-call support. **Enablement and Detection** - Provide Python APIs and onboard application teams and AI-agent developers to the platform, with documentation that make the secure path the easy one. - Build logging, metrics and alerting for platform services, and contribute SIEM detection rules. **Key Competencies** **Required** - Hands-on experience building and operating production services with Python. - Using Kubernetes, Linux and containerised environments, including networking fundamentals and performance troubleshooting. - Solid understanding of authentication, authorisation and secrets management (OIDC/OAuth, Azure AD/Entra ID, vault technologies). - Experience with infrastructure-as-code (e.g., Terraform, Ansible, Helm) and GitOps-based deployment. - Working knowledge of observability stacks (e.g., ELK, Prometheus, Grafana), including building dashboards and alerting rules. - Clear communication and a structured approach to reasoning about risk. **Desirable** - Kubernetes knowledge beyond basic usage: network policies, pod security standards, admission controllers and resource quota enforcement. - Policy engines and workload identity (e.g., OPA/Rego, Kyverno, Cedar, OpenFGA, SPIFFE/SPIRE, Envoy/service mesh). - API design (REST/gRPC) for internal platform consumers. - Network security controls: WAFs, segmentation, TLS termination and egress filtering. **Inclusion, Work-Life Balance and Benefits at Man Group** You'll thrive in our working environment that champions equality of opportunity.
