Job description

We are looking for a Senior Network Security Engineer with a strong specialization in Secure Web Gateway (SWG) and proxy technologies, particularly Blue Coat ProxySG (now part of Broadcom/Symantec). This role sits within our broader network security function and is responsible for administering, securing, and optimizing web/internet access infrastructure across the organization.

Candidates should bring at least 2–3 years of hands-on Blue Coat ProxySG / SGOS administration experience as part of a broader network security career (typically 5+ years overall). Experience in banking and financial services is a strong plus, but not mandatory.
Key Responsibilities

Proxy & Secure Web Gateway Administration

• Administer, configure, and support Blue Coat ProxySG (SGOS) and related secure web gateway/web security solutions.
• Design, implement, and maintain web filtering categories, acceptable use policies, and secure internet access controls.
• Configure and manage SSL/TLS interception (SSL Visibility), authentication integration (AD/LDAP, Kerberos, SAML), and ICAP integration with DLP, antivirus, and sandboxing solutions.
• Monitor proxy performance, availability, and capacity; conduct tuning and optimization to ensure minimal latency and maximum uptime.
  

Troubleshooting & Incident Response

• Troubleshoot proxy-related incidents, connectivity issues, and policy conflicts, working across network layers (TCP/IP, DNS, HTTP/HTTPS, routing).
• Participate in security incident response related to web-based threats, malicious traffic, and policy violations.
• Collaborate with SOC, network, and broader cybersecurity teams to correlate proxy logs with SIEM and threat intelligence platforms.
  

Project, Migration & Lifecycle Support

• Support upgrades, patching, and lifecycle management of Blue Coat ProxySG appliances and related SWG components.
• Assist with migration or integration projects between on-premise proxy solutions and cloud-delivered SWG/SASE platforms.
• Contribute to automation and scripting initiatives to streamline policy deployment, reporting, and routine administration tasks.
  

Governance, Documentation & Compliance

• Prepare and maintain technical documentation, configuration standards, and operational runbooks.
• Support internal and external audits by providing evidence of secure configuration, change control, and policy enforcement.
• Ensure alignment with information security policies and relevant regulatory frameworks (e.g., SAMA, NCA ECC, ISO/IEC 27001, PCI DSS) where applicable.
