Your Team
We've already built a pretty amazing team, but we're not looking for more of the same. Our day-to-day is made stronger when we surround ourselves with people who are different, like you.
Your Role
The Security Engineer (Application Security) is a hands-on technical role that blends application security, DevSecOps, and cloud security. The role works alongside engineering teams to embed security into how software is built, deployed, and operated across Flybuys' technology estate. This role suits someone with a strong engineering foundation who is ready to grow deeper into application and cloud security, while contributing meaningfully from day one.
The role sits within the Cyber Security team and works closely with Application Development, Cloud, and Data teams. It is designed to be a practical, approachable security partner to engineering squads, supported by a senior security engineer and given room to learn, build, and grow.
Key Areas of Accountability
We offer our valued team members a stack of exclusive benefits! To name a few...
We value ways of working that work for everyone and use our different strengths to make us stronger. We work hard to make sure everyone’s voice is heard and respected equally, regardless of identity, background, position, ability or lifestyle.
It is a condition of employment that successful applicants undergo a National Police Check prior to commencing.
