Cyber Security Engineer - Incident Response & Crisis Simulation

Immersive is hiring! Could you be our next Cyber Security Engineer?

Due to customer demand and increasing maturity within our platform we have an exciting and challenging opportunity for an experienced cyber professional within the defensive security sector - with expertise in blue team engagements and crisis response- to join our Product team as a Cyber Security Engineer focused on Defensive content.

If successful you will join our Cyber team working closely with our Cyber Team Leads as we embark on this exciting new phase of product development within our market leading cyber resilience platform.

This isn’t an ordinary blue team role - we know everyone claims this and will tell you their role is super unique…but this one really is.

You are constantly researching, learning, totally geeking out on all things defensive security related, from blue teaming, to crisis simulation and response to the latest AI driven attacks, and then taking that knowledge and creating labs and ranges.

You will be a key player in our Blue Team Content team, shaping and influencing the roll out of our defensive security and crisis simulation catalogue roadmap whilst also working on threat research content.

You will be educating the world of defensive security professionals on how to make sure they are secure in what they do. Now that is a pretty cool legacy to leave behind.

Your mission (if you choose to accept it) is to evolve and disrupt within the Blue Team space by creating emulated environments within our platform that will simulate both hacking and defending in an engaging and intuitive way for our community.

You will design build and deliver practical and theory content to gamify offensive security and make it engaging and fun for the end user. You'll shake up traditional training and teach complex concepts in an innovative way.

If you have an interest in and passion for cyber security, have proven experience in the area of Incident Response & Crisis Simulation, and want to disrupt how employees build their resilience against the latest threats we will appreciate your input and give you the space to innovate within our market leading platform, Immersive One.

Your main responsibilities (we're scaling fast, so these may change as we grow):

• Utilising knowledge of blue teaming engagements and techniques to plan, write and improve defensive security labs, challenges and online learning content on the Immersive One platform.

• Produce multi-format content utilising various teaching methods; practical exercises, questions & gamification

• Test Blue Team labs and ranges to ensure they function as expected

• Research the latest crisis and incidents and compile this research to deliver a catalogue of crisis simulation content

• Compile technical research into understandable concise content for both technical and non-technical audience

• Work with the wider Product team on new projects and product innovations and how best to deploy them

Sounds good? We’d love to hear from you if you have proven experience in the following areas:

• A number of years of experience working in the defensive security space, particularly within Incident Response or table top exercises

• In-depth knowledge of the MITRE ATT&CK framework and how it is used to help enterprises deal with threats to their organisation.

• Have a strong technical understanding of networking, computing and cyber security concepts

• Have the ability to use examples and analogies to simplify complex subjects - your content will train real world users to identify and combat the latest threats so you need to be able to inhabit the mindset of your target audience to create realistic simulations

• Attitude and approach is just as important as technical skills for this role - you will be someone who enjoys tackling complex problems and finding the solution. You'll be a natural problem solver and 'tinkerer' who enjoys prototyping and iteration.

Immersive’s growth has been fuelled by our values that underpin everything we do, here's how they relate to this role:

• Driven - We push the boundaries of innovation, acting swiftly to achieve ambitious outcomes. Our drive embodies a culture of ambition, where challenges are stepping stones to excellence.

• One Team - We are a talented global team working together to achieve our vision. Central to our ethos, resilience means adapting and thriving in adversity. It guides our innovation, ensuring we and our clients are prepared for the future.

We encourage people of all different backgrounds and identities to apply. We are committed to maintaining an inclusive, supportive place for you to be you and do your very best work. Excited by the above? We’re ready to receive your application!

• Informal or formal flexible working options, e.g. flexible start and finish times, reduced hours
