Leading technical response to security incidents, from triage through to lessons learned

Proactive threat hunting - building and tuning detection logic beyond out-of-the-box alerts
Driving Zero Trust principles: identity-first access, least privilege,



micro-segmentation
Supporting vulnerability management, pen test coordination and maturity assessments
Mentoring junior team members and contributing to Digital Health's security strategy
Reporting on security posture to management and executive stakeholders
What you'll bring:
5+ years hands-on cybersecurity engineering experience, including leading response to significant incidents
Solid working knowledge of Microsoft cloud security tooling (Defender, Sentinel, Entra ID) and traditional network/endpoint controls
Genuine hands‐on capability - you'll need to demonstrate real skills at interview, not just certifications
