Head of Security
About The Position
We're partnering with Quant, a global leader in digital transformation and technology solutions, seeking an Head of Security to join their team. Securing a chain platform that moves regulated money is not the same problem as securing an enterprise, and the people who have done both are rare. We are hiring someone to own it. The role involves establishing much of the security model rather than inheriting it, and proving it to those whose job is to find gaps. Detection and response running continuously. The certificate and PKI lifecycle. Threat intelligence feeding the platform's protective controls. Transaction monitoring and on-chain analytics. Because most serious security events on a platform like this are also availability events, you would work alongside the reliability team during incidents rather than after them.
Requirements
- Led security operations in financial services or another regulated industry.
- Built or run a function with continuous coverage.
- Understand the difference between an alert and a signal.
- PKI and certificate lifecycle ownership at scale.
- Produced evidence for a regulator.
Nice To Haves
- Blockchain analytics and on-chain transaction monitoring.
- Operating inside a client’s security tooling rather than your own.
- Digital asset custody or exchange security.
Responsibilities
- Own the security of a chain platform that moves regulated money.
- Establish and prove the security model.
- Ensure detection and response run continuously.
- Manage the certificate and PKI lifecycle.
- Integrate threat intelligence into protective controls.
- Perform transaction monitoring and on-chain analytics.
- Collaborate with the reliability team during security incidents.
