Platform Engineer - Python

Shape the future of cyber defense technology. Join a highly collaborative Cyber Security Operations Centre Technology and Innovation team where you'll play a critical role in advancing the platforms, automation, and intelligence capabilities that help detect, investigate, and respond to evolving cyber threats. This is an opportunity to work at the intersection of security engineering, platform strategy, and emerging technologies, helping drive innovation while influencing the future adoption of AI across a global security ecosystem.

We are a global financial services group operating in 30 markets with 57 years of unbroken profitability. At Macquarie, you're empowered to shape a career that is fulfilling and creates value. You will bring your insights and expertise to the task at hand and feel supported as you make your own kind of impact for a better future.

You will join our Cyber Security Operations Centre Technology and Innovation team, where you will manage, enhance, and automate critical security platforms that support the detection, investigation, and containment of cyber threats. Through platform engineering, integration, and automation, you will help improve operational efficiency, resilience, and the effectiveness of security response capabilities.

You will develop and maintain security platform infrastructure, implement infrastructure-as-code solutions, and build automated processes that improve platform reliability, scalability, and operational performance. Working closely with security analysts, engineers, technology teams, and vendors, you will deliver improvements that strengthen cyber security operations while enabling greater agility across the organisation.

You will contribute to the evolution of our security technology strategy by helping assess and integrate emerging capabilities across security orchestration, threat intelligence, user behaviour analytics, and AI-driven solutions. By combining deep technical expertise with a collaborative mindset, you will help ensure our platforms remain effective, modern, and resilient against a constantly changing threat landscape.

You will also play a key role in supporting continuous delivery practices, maintaining platform health and performance, and delivering outcomes against challenging timelines while effectively managing stakeholder expectations.

While Macquarie offers hybrid working for many of our roles, this role does require 3 days a week in our advertised location.

Technology enables every aspect of Macquarie, for our people, our customers and our communities. We're a global team that is passionate about accelerating the digital enterprise, connecting people and data, building platforms and applications and designing tomorrow's technology solutions.
