About the Role

At Distology, a Most Loved Workplace® certified employer in the Information Technology space, Securing futures through passionate expertise and trusted partnerships.

We’re looking for a Security Engineer to join Distology Engineering — a focused technical team working across cybersecurity and AI. The role gives you experience across the full lifecycle of our activities in the IT channel, from enablement and presales through to rollout. You’ll gain exposure to some of the most interesting technologies in the field. It’s about knowledge sharing, enablement, and workstreams such as PoVs and RFPs. The role includes collaborating with colleagues in Engineering on projects and deployments. These are the workstreams where you gain hands-on experience and practitioner credibility that continually feeds back into presales vendor and partner conversations. Your engineering team colleagues bring their own specialisms — some aligned with specific products in our portfolio, others with deep expertise in areas like custom development and AI engineering — so there’s always somebody with the right depth to lean on. The role is flexible enough for you to choose the specialisms that resonate for you as well as benefit Distology. Cybersecurity is a broad landscape and we don’t expect anyone on the team to know everything. We’ll cycle and review your areas of focus periodically so that you have a healthy professional development and learning curve, and we’ll decide as a team how we organise ourselves, what we train or certify on and when we bring in external collaborators.
