Working in engineering:
Working at Nintex as an engineer means building more than just software; it’s about making a tangible impact with every line of code. Our engineers are process experts, developing the industry’s most complete process and automation platform to transform the way people work. If you’re interested, curious and want to learn and do more, the sky is the limit here. We take a solutions-oriented and collaborative approach, constantly innovating our business and products.
About the role:
As a Platform Security Engineer, you are a developing security professional building expertise in securing cloud-native infrastructure, container platforms, CI/CD pipelines, and product services within the Platform Engineering organization. You take ownership of moderately complex security tasks with increasing autonomy while receiving guidance on architectural decisions and strategic direction. Your focus is the security posture of our platform and product infrastructure — the container orchestration layer, service mesh, observability stack, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud infrastructure that engineering teams build and deploy on.
You implement and maintain security controls, build standardized security processes for engineering teams (vulnerability management, production security checks, secure build pipelines), support penetration testing and SOC operations for the product environment, contribute to compliance-related activities from the product security perspective, and help embed security practices into the developer experience through tooling and documentation.
You are building depth and maturity in infrastructure security, application security, and shift-left practices needed to progress toward a senior platform security role.
Your contribution will be:
- You implement and maintain security controls across the platform, including container orchestration security policies, network segmentation, role-based access controls, and admission control mechanisms.
- You manage container image scanning and enforce image policies in CI/CD pipelines and cluster admission, ensuring only vetted and signed images reach production environments.
- You support infrastructure-as-code security scanning using policy-as-code tooling, flagging and remediating misconfigurations in infrastructure definitions before they reach production.
- You maintain and improve secrets management workflows, ensuring rotation policies are enforced, access is audited, and no secrets are hardcoded or exposed in source code or configuration.
- You support cloud security posture management across cloud environments, monitoring for drift, misconfiguration, and compliance deviations against established baselines.
- You support service mesh security configuration including mutual TLS enforcement, authorization policies, and traffic policies that enforce zero-trust communication between platform services.
- You contribute to tenant isolation and access control configuration for shared platform services, ensuring appropriate segmentation between teams and environments.
- You conduct vulnerability assessments of platform and product infrastructure components, coordinating remediation with SRE, Platform Engineering, and product service teams.
- You maintain a vulnerability tracking system and produce regular reporting on security posture, remediation velocity, and risk trends for engineering leadership.
- You implement and maintain security gates in CI/CD pipelines including dependency scanning, static application security testing (SAST), software composition analysis (SCA), and container image scanning.
- You participate in security incident response for platform and product-related events, supporting investigation, containment, evidence preservation, and documentation under guidance from the Senior Platform Security Engineer.
- You support compliance-related activities from the product security perspective, providing evidence, documentation, and technical validation for audits and assessments (SOC 2, ISO 27001, CIS Benchmarks) without owning the compliance program itself.
- Vulnerability report generation, security posture dashboards, and remediation workflow tooling.
- You contribute to security reviews for infrastructure and product changes, providing feedback on pull requests and architecture proposals from a security perspective.
- You explain security concepts and requirements to engineering teams, empowering them to build securely and understand the rationale behind security controls.
To be successful, we think you need:
Minimum Requirements:
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, Information Technology, Engineering, or related field; or equivalent combination of education and experience.
- 2+ years of professional experience in security engineering, infrastructure security, DevSecOps, application security, or related field.
- Hands-on experience with at least one major cloud platform (Azure or AWS).
- Working knowledge of container orchestration security concepts in Kubernetes: pod security, role-based access control, network policies, admission controllers.
- Experience with infrastructure-as-code tools and understanding of how to secure IaC workflows.
- Understanding of CI/CD pipeline security: dependency scanning, SAST/SCA integration, artifact integrity.
- Understanding of security frameworks and compliance standards (SOC 2, ISO 27001, CIS Benchmarks, OWASP).
- Proficiency in scripting (Python, Bash, Go, or PowerShell) for security automation and tooling.
- Proficiency with programing languages ( C#, Javascript/Typescript).
- Experience with or exposure to penetration testing concepts, vulnerability management workflows, and security incident response.
- Strong communication skills with the ability to explain security findings and build standardized processes that engineering teams adopt. GitHub and/or Azure DevOps pipelines

We’re seeking backend engineers with proven senior-level experience to join the Equal Experts network.
As a member of the team you will work alongside our clients to help design and deliver solutions to meet business requirements and help to improve the effectiveness of the clients' software delivery capability. And of course, all this happens in a consultative, collaborative fashion – in keeping with our values.
You should have extensive experience delivering software on commercial projects backed up by extensive knowledge of agile practices such as TDD, pair programming and CI/CD to name a few.
A growth-based, learning mindset is a must coupled with a passion for technology.
This role involves working in teams that use modern agile technical practices - including continuous integration and deployment and fast feedback loops - to deliver timely and pragmatic solutions, as well as helping others to do their jobs in a more effective way.
Responsibilities
- Working with the client and the team to determine system requirements and how best to deliver them.
- Delivery of software using agile (pair programming, TDD, CI/CD, etc) practices
- Automation of system infrastructure and deployments.
- Production support of systems you are working on (You build it, you run it).
- Advocating agile practices to the client organisation.
- Mentoring client team members.
- Helping improve the team and clients’ delivery capabilities.
Required Skills
- Extensive, diversified experience developing, maintaining and operating enterprise scale distributed systems.
- Expert level knowledge of your chosen programming language and the associated tooling. Experience with other languages is highly desirable.
- Hands-on experience with test driven development and other forms of automated testing.
- Strong understanding of the principles underlying agile development and an understanding of the various approaches that can be effective in realising these principles in different contexts.
- Strong communication skills, including the ability to communicate effectively while working remotely with globally distributed teams.
- Strong interpersonal skills, including a desire to collaborate and share knowledge with other team members, including client team members. This also includes the ability to work collectively towards a common goal without insisting on a given course of action.
Nice To Have
- Hands-on experience developing distributed systems including microservice architectures and RESTful services.
- Hands-on experience developing and running large scale production systems ideally in containerised/cloud environments using either AWS, GCP or Azure.
