## Description

Fuse Energy is seeking a Senior or Lead Security Engineer (Detection & Response) to build out the next generation of detection systems. The successful candidate will sit within the team responsible for security across Fuse Energy's IT and cloud environment, spanning AWS, identity, endpoints, SaaS and data center infrastructure.

The role involves owning security monitoring and detection end-to-end: anticipating how systems could be compromised, ensuring the right telemetry is in place to detect it, and building detections and response workflows to act on it. The ideal candidate will have significant hands-on experience in detection engineering, security engineering, incident response, threat hunting or a similar technical role.

Responsibilities:

- Own security monitoring and detection across AWS, identity, endpoints, SaaS, networks and data center environments

- Build and maintain telemetry and logging pipelines needed to detect security incidents, and continuously test and improve detection coverage

- Lead security investigations and incident response from detection through containment, recovery and post-mortem

- Proactively hunt for threats and identify gaps in visibility, controls and detection coverage

- Build automation to improve detection, investigation and response, making effective use of AI and emerging tools to improve efficiency and capabilities

- Work closely with IT and Engineering to turn security findings into preventative controls and better system design

- Develop and test incident response playbooks and continuously improve response capability

- Implement and enhance internal AI agents and security bots that assist with monitoring, investigations, reporting, and other security operation tasks.

Requirements:

- Significant hands-on experience in detection engineering, security engineering, incident response, threat hunting or a similar technical role

- Strong understanding of cloud environments, ideally AWS, and how to monitor them for unauthorised or suspicious activity

- Strong networking fundamentals and an understanding of how attackers move through networks and systems

- Strong understanding of attacker tradecraft and the ability to turn it into useful, high-signal detections

- Experience investigating real security incidents and taking ownership through to resolution

- Strong scripting or programming skills, ideally Python, and a habit of automating repetitive work

- Experience with security monitoring and response tooling such as SIEM, EDR, SOAR or equivalent

- Strong systems thinking and a natural instinct for asking "how would we know if this was compromised?"

- Comfortable working autonomously and closely with IT and Engineering teams

- Curious about emerging AI capabilities and proactive in experimenting with AI-assisted development, automation and security workflows.

Benefits:

- Competitive salary and eligibility for equity

- Biannual bonus scheme

- Fully expensed tech to match needs

- Private health insurance

- Breakfast and dinner allowance for office-based employees
