ABOUT THIS ROLE
Your goal is simple and ambitious: make cloud and platform security safe by
default. Youll deploy and operate CSPM across GCP and AWS route and
close posture gaps through Jira with tuned suppressions and give
engineering teams paved-road guardrails (reusable modules policy checks)
that keep delivery fast and secure.
What youll do
Run CSPM across orgs/accounts: connect GCP Security Command Center and AWS Security Hub map findings to owners/SLAs in Jira and reduce noise with scoped suppressions.
Enforce organization policies: no public buckets restricted legacy OAuth scopes domain restrictions baseline logging/encryption and CMEK where required.
Build the paved road: deliver reusable Terraform modules/blueprints with baked-in controls; add pre-commit and CI/CD policy checks that prevent risky changes from shipping.
Support secure egress & posture gates: partner with the Senior Engineer on Netskope SD-WAN to define app-aware egress and posture-based access for sensitive apps (later in 2026).
Elevate container/image hygiene: introduce basic image signing/scanning minimal bases and sane secrets handling patterns in CI/CD.
Stop certificate outages: maintain inventory alerts and a renewal workflow (ACME where feasible).
Identity intersections: verify admin MFA enforcement break-glass testing cadence and JML hooks that impact cloud access.
What youll bring
Experience: 47 years in cloud/platform security with GCP and/or AWS at multi-account/organization scope; proven CSPM operations and Jira-routed closure with SLAs.
Hands-on CSPM experience (SCC/SecHub or similar) at multi-account/multi-org scope plus routing and closure in Jira with SLAs.
IaC fluency (Terraform) and a track record of reusable secure modules and policy-as-code checks in pipelines.
Working knowledge of GCP/AWS org policies/controls; ability to balance developer velocity with strong defaults.
Practical CI/CD exposure (you secure it; you dont have to build/own the pipelines).Clear communication documentation and a habit of proving posture with simple scorecards.
Certifications (nice to have not required)
GCP Professional Cloud Security Engineer AWS Security Specialty HashiCorp Terraform Associate CKA/CKS; GIAC GCSA/GC cloud tracks.
How well measure success
CSPM is connected and useful: findings reach the right owners with actionable tickets and less noise over time.
Core org policies are enforced and posture improvements are visible and sustained.
Paved-road guardrails are adopted by engineers and reduce manualsecurity rework.
Certificate renewals are predictable with no surprise expirations.
