You'll triage findings from Aikido and our annual penetration test, and work with product teams to get them fixed.\n\nMaking our systems observable and our incident response sharp: alerting in Datadog and Sentry, on-call, postmortems, and runbooks/skills people actually use.\n\nWe’re looking for someone who:\nHas run production infrastructure on AWS and writes Terraform comfortably\n\nHas hands-on experience with a security framework such as ISO 27001 or SOC 2: you've owned controls and produced the evidence\n\nHas sound security instincts and knows when a risk is worth accepting\n\nHas been on call, worked real incidents, and made things better afterwards\n\nWeighs cost and complexity, and picks the simplest thing that works at our scale\n\nMeets an unfamiliar problem with \"I'll find out\", whether it's a CIDR clash, a failing control or a vendor console you've never opened\n\nIdeally knows their way around Kubernetes (EKS), Linux and network debugging, identity and device management (e.g. JumpCloud), and AI coding agents in infrastructure work\n\nIs a self-starter who thrives in constantly evolving environments, ideally with early-stage experience\n\nWe’d like someone highly ambitious, motivated and eager to propel their career forward. We prioritise grit, positivity, and the willingness to get stuck in, and encourage you to apply even if your experience doesn't exactly match this job description.\nBenefits\nEquity in a rapidly growing startup\n\nPrivate Health Insurance and Life Assurance\n\nUnlimited annual leave - we hold Sylverans to account based on outcome rather than inputs\n\nEnhanced parental leave\n\nLocal bar tab at the end of the month\n\nWeekly drinks in the office\n\nCatered lunch once a month in office\n\nMonthly Deliveroo/equivalent allowance once a month\n\nLocation\nLondon, UK (hybrid). We work flexibly whilst encouraging people to come in regularly to our great office in Old St\nOur Values\nOwn it: We build on the momentum of our wins and reflect on and learn from our failures.\n\nStay curious: We keep our focus on the long-term, even if that means short-term challenges.\n\nDo what’s right - even when it’s hard: We take a growth mindset to our work, our customers, our market and the opportunities ahead of us.\n\nCollaborate and challenge with empathy: Our teams deliver through active collaboration. We invest in each others’ success and make the company stronger in the long-run.\n\nEmpower Customers: Make extraordinary efforts to exceed our customer expectations.
