Let's talk about you

You're curious and thrive in fast-paced environments. You bring a strong technical foundation in cybersecurity and a mindset that's focused on real-world impact. You're not afraid to explore assumptions, dive deep into risks, and speak plainly about what needs to be done. You enjoy collaborating with others, rolling up your sleeves when needed, and using humour to build trust and connection.

• Understand threats, vulnerabilities, attack methods, and security frameworks (ISO27001, NIST, SOCI, ASD Essential 8) 

• Are familiar with threat modelling (STRIDE, PASTA), scripting (PowerShell, Python), and logging best practices 

• Communicate clearly, stay organised, and work well on your own or in a team 

• Bonus points if you bring telco experience, relevant certifications (e.g. CISSP, CCSP), or a risk-based mindset 

• Are constructive, friendly, and bring a sense of humour to the team 

• Think like a mentor, solve problems quickly, and adapt with ease 

How will you support our "Why?"

At Aussie Broadband, our "why" is to connect Australians to what matters most. As our Security Engineer, you'll help us live our values by being awesome, thinking big, cutting through the noise, being good to people, and having fun.
