Our client, a well-established financial services organisation in Singapore, is looking for a Cyber Security Engineer to join their information security function. This role sits within a broader security operations team and plays a hands-on part in keeping the organisation's systems, data, and infrastructure protected against evolving threats. You'll get exposure across the full security stack, from day-to-day operational monitoring through to newer frontiers like AI/ML security and post-quantum cryptography readiness.
This is a great opportunity for a security professional who enjoys variety, wants to build depth across multiple security domains, and is keen to work in an environment where cybersecurity is treated as a genuine business priority.
What You'll Be Doing
Security Operations & Infrastructure
- Configure, troubleshoot, and support the day-to-day running of security tools and platforms across the environment
- Keep an eye on systems for unusual activity, flag anomalies, and help close out potential threats before they escalate
- Contribute to preventive controls that reduce the organisation's overall risk exposure
- Get hands-on with a broad toolkit, covering areas such as email security, intrusion detection and prevention, attack surface monitoring, anti-malware, web application firewalls, and certificate management
Security Strategy & Architecture
- Build and maintain a solid understanding of the organisation's security architecture
- Support ongoing efforts to strengthen and evolve the security strategy in line with industry developments
- Help define and document security requirements for new systems and projects, and contribute to technical write-ups and solution design
Emerging Technology Security
- Support security controls for AI and machine learning systems, spanning data protection, training environments, and model deployment
- Help identify and manage risks specific to AI, such as adversarial attacks and data poisoning
- Get involved in the organisation's post-quantum cryptography readiness work, including tracking developments in quantum-resistant standards and supporting crypto-agility efforts across TLS certificates and digital signatures
Awareness, Governance & Delivery
- Support security awareness campaigns and training to lift the organisation's overall security posture
- Help drive adherence to information security policies and best practice
- Track project milestones and ensure your piece of the puzzle lands on time
What You'll Bring
- A few years of hands-on experience in a cybersecurity or security engineering role
- Solid grounding in security principles, tools, and common attack/defence patterns
- Comfort working across scripting or programming languages
- Strong analytical instincts, you're someone who can look at a complex system and spot where the gaps are
- Clear communication skills, since you'll be working across technical and non-technical stakeholders
- Certifications such as CISSP (or equivalent) are a plus, though not essential
