The Team

This is an outstanding opportunity to join Man Group's Security Engineering team within Technology. Man Group's business is powered by sophisticated technology, with AI accelerating the next generation of transformation. Our technology stack is built on modern open-source components, both enabling day-to-day research and development and supporting our 24-hour trading.

With the 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 that supports safe agentic workflows is critical.

We are seeking a Senior Security Engineer to build and run the components that put these principles into practice: a policy engine and APIs that allow applications, AI agents and users to authenticate, with authorisation supported by 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
