At Engine by Starling, we are on a mission to find and work with leading banks all around the world who have the ambition to build rapid growth businesses on our technology. Engine is Starling's software-as-a-service (SaaS) business-the technology that was built to power Starling-and two years ago we split out as a separate business. Starling has seen exceptional growth and success, and a large part of that is down to the fact that we have built our own modern technology from the ground up. This SaaS technology platform is now available to banks and financial institutions all around the world, enabling them to benefit from the innovative digital features and efficient back-office processes that have helped achieve Starling's success. As a company, everyone is expected to roll up their sleeves to help deliver great outcomes for our clients. We are an engineering-led company and we're looking for people who will be excited by the potential for Engine's technology to transform banking in different markets around the world. Our purpose is underpinned by five values: Listen, Keep It Simple, Do The Right Thing, Own It, and Aim For Greatness. Hybrid Working We have a Hybrid approach to working here at Engine - our preference is that you're located within a commutable distance of one of our offices so that we're able to interact and collaborate in person. About the role We are seeking a senior, highly adaptable Principal Security Programme Manager & Technical Lead to serve as a key technical partner to our Business Information Security Officer (BISO). In this high-visibility role, you will help shape, refine, and execute our strategic security roadmap as we rapidly scale our global fintech ecosystem. You will bridge executive security vision with practical technical delivery-guiding core security initiatives that intersect with the CTO Office while collaborating daily with engineering, SecOps, threat and vulnerability management, and broader group functions. You will also champion secure innovation, ensuring our security posture keeps pace with emerging technologies like AI while embedding technical compliance across key financial standards. This is a balanced role for a collaborative builder and strategist: you will be equally comfortable influencing engineering peers and designing future-state security controls as you are taking direct ownership to deliver technical milestones. Responsibilities Roadmap Architecture & Scaling: Partner directly with the BISO to evaluate, refine, and drive the security roadmap, proactively proposing strategic updates to support rapid business growth. Cross-Functional Execution: Lead core security projects, aligning initiatives across the CTO Office, engineering leads, SecOps, and threat/vulnerability management. AI Security Readiness: Define and roll out practical security guardrails, risk assessments, and safe-use practices for AI/LLM adoption across engineering and business units. Compliance & Governance Alignment: Ensure technical security controls natively satisfy key regulatory frameworks-including ISO 27001, ISO42001, SOC 1/2, PCI DSS & 3DS, CSA C-STAR, and DORA. Pragmatic Technical Advisory: Translate high-level security requirements into actionable, practical guidance for engineering teams without creating delivery bottlenecks. Hands-on Delivery: Drive critical technical work streams directly when needed, taking full ownership of project milestones from inception through to operational handover. Requirements Knowledge & Technical Expertise Fintech or Scale-Up: Deep background in fintech security principles, regulatory demands, and scaling controls within fast-paced environments. AI Security & Innovation: Practical understanding of security considerations surrounding AI integration, data privacy, and model risk management. Frameworks & Compliance: Hands-on experience mapping technical controls to ISO 27001, ISO42001, SOC 1/2, PCI DSS & 3DS, CSA C-STAR, and DORA. Programme Delivery: Strong project and programme management skills, with a proven track record of bringing complex security initiatives to completion. Technical Breadth: Strong technical foundation across SecOps, threat & vulnerability management, and secure engineering. Behaviours & Competencies Influence & Autonomy: Exceptional interpersonal and stakeholder management skills; highly self-directed and capable of building cross-functional consensus collaboratively. Strategic & Operational Flexibility: Ability to shift seamlessly between strategic planning and hands-on technical execution. Pragmatic Problem-Solving: A clear focus on enabling business growth and engineering velocity through balanced, practical security controls. Preferred Qualifications Prior experience operating autonomously as an TPM or Technical Lead in a fast paced environment Experience with cloud security architectures. Industry certifications in security, privacy, or compliance (e.g., CISSP). Interview Process Interviewing is a two-way process and we want you to have the time and opportunity to get to know us, as much as we are getting to know you!
