Detection Engineer
We’re looking for a curious, motivated Detection Engineer to join our growing Information Security team. If you love learning, enjoy solving problems, and want to work with modern cloud‑first security tools, this is a brilliant opportunity to grow your skills and make a real impact.
This isn’t a traditional SOC role. At Our Future Health, the “boring bits” of the SOC are outsourced, leaving you with the exciting, high‑impact work that shapes how we detect and respond to threats at scale. You’ll collaborate closely with our inhouse Threat team and our outsourced SOC partner, building unique detection capabilities that go beyond just SIEM detections, all to help us stay ahead of attackers across a cutting‑edge cloud environment.
If you’re excited by Microsoft security tools, and the idea of helping shape how a national‑scale programme detects threats, we’d love to hear from you.
At Our Future Health, our mission is to transform the prevention, detection and treatment of conditions such as dementia, cancer, diabetes, heart disease and stroke. If you want your work to contribute to something meaningful, this is the place to grow your career.
What you’ll be doing
- Developing and improving threat‑led detections using Microsoft Sentinel and KQL.
- Working with our threat team and outsourced SOC to tune and maintain our detection rules.
- Supporting the configuration and tuning of Microsoft Purview tools such as DLP and Insider Risk Management.
- Leveraging cloud‑native log sources (Azure, Kubernetes, SaaS apps) to spot suspicious activity.
- Helping create dashboards and reports using Sentinel workbooks.
- Documenting processes, detections, and configurations so our security operations stay consistent and high‑quality.
- Collaborating with engineers and analysts across the tech team to ensure our systems are monitored effectively.
What you won’t be doing
- Working in a siloed environment with no freedom to make decisions.
- Working in a place where you can’t see the impact your expertise makes.
