At Zopa, our Second Line Technology Risk team helps the business move fast, yet safely. We partner closely with engineering, security, resilience and product teams to spot emerging risks, challenge assumptions and make sure our technology stays secure, resilient and ready to scale.
This role is perfect for someone curious, analytical and excited by variety. You could be reviewing resilience testing around payments one week, exploring ransomware readiness the next, or using observability data to uncover emerging risks across critical services.
Youll work alongside experts in cyber security, infrastructure and architecture, but this is an oversight and risk role rather than hands-on engineering. Were looking for someone who enjoys diving into detail while still seeing the bigger picture.What makes this role different? Zopa is still building and evolving at pace without the burden of legacy technology. Were investing heavily in observability, AI tooling and modern risk approaches, giving you the opportunity to help shape the future of technology risk oversight.
