We have an immediate opening for a Senior Manager - Cyber Security Engineers position in Abu Dhabi.
- Experience: 8-10+ Years
- Location: Abu Dhabi
- Employment type: Full-time
- Domain: Banking
Certifications:
- OSCP or OSCE — mandatory
- GIAC GPEN or GXPN
- GIAC GMLE (Machine Learning Engineer) or an equivalent AI-security certification
- Enrolment in the Anthropic Cyber Verification Program for authorised offensive use of Opus 4.x
- CREST CCT — desirable, particularly in regulated banking environments
Key Deliverables:
- Operate Continuous Security Validation — running AWS Security Agent (cloud/infra), (AI-specific) and (model supply-chain) on every significant deployment, mapped to a 2LoD-approved threat coverage matrix.
- Own the 7-day threat-intel SLA — ingesting MITRE ATLAS / OWASP LLM feeds via Jira automation and operationalizing new attack techniques into test suites within 7 days.
- Aggregate, deduplicate and SLA-manage all findings via DefectDojo → Attestation, enforcing severity-based MTTR remediation gates before re-deployment approval, and feeding the Power BI dashboard (Open Findings, MTTR, Pipeline Gate Pass Rate, Prompt Injection Block Rate) in offensive security, blue-team validation and continuous adversarial testing, with proven shift from periodic manual pentest to automated, continuous control validation.
- Hands-on with autonomous pentest tooling (AWS Security Agent, Horizon3 or equivalent), AI red-teaming (Garak, PyRIT, Claude Security / Opus 4.x, Codex) and OWASP LLM Top 10 + MITRE ATLAS test design.
- Clear understanding of the 1LoD/2LoD boundary — running control validation (blue team) against 2LoD-approved threat scenarios, while leaving independent unknown-scenario red teaming to 2LoD.
