Who You Are
As a Senior Cloud Security Engineer you will leverage your cloud security and automation expertise to design and implement secure scalable and resilient solutions across AWS (primary) Azure and optionally GCP. You will focus on enabling security by design building reusable automated modules and frameworks to enforce security standards and reduce risk in multi-cloud and containerized environments.
You will partner closely with Site Reliability Engineering Cloud Engineering and Product Engineering teams embedding security in infrastructure CI/CD pipelines and orchestration workflows. As a trusted advisor you will coach mentor and enable teams driving a culture of secure-by-default engineering and continuous improvement.
If you enjoy architecting security controls standardizing infrastructure through IaC and developing automation to scale security across cloud environmentsthis role is for you.
What Youll Do
- Design and implement secure scalable and resilient solutions across AWS (primary) and Azure with optional exposure to GCP.
- Secure Kubernetes and container orchestration platforms applying best practices for isolation runtime security and workload protection.
- Design develop and review security-focused Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) modules using Terraform Ansible AWS CloudFormation or Helm ensuring all modules are secure compliant and reusable across tenants and projects.
- Implement and manage workflow automation/orchestration to scale cloud security operations.
- Embed cloud security best practices into system design including IAM encryption key management network segmentation and zero-trust principles.
- Identify and mitigate risks in cloud and containerized environments through architecture reviews and threat modelling.
- Enhance the usage of existing CSPM CWPP CIEM DSPM tools by building custom solutions automation and integrations using Python or similar scripting languages.
- Partner with engineering and security teams to embed security into CI/CD pipelines and enable DevSecOps practices.
- Develop deploy and maintain security tools playbooks and SOPs to monitor detect and respond to threats.
- Mentor and coach junior engineers while contributing to the growth of the Cloud Security program.
What Youll Need
- 7 years of experience in cloud security engineering cloud architecture or site reliability engineering.
- Deep expertise in AWS security concepts; strong understanding of Azure; working knowledge of GCP is a plus.
- Extensive hands-on experience in securing Kubernetes and container orchestration technologies.
- Strong experience with Terraform Helm Ansible AWS CF and related IaC/automation frameworks.
- Proven ability to enhance and extend CSPM CWPP CIEM DSPM platforms with automation and custom solutions.
- Proficiency in Python or other scripting languages to automate security workflows and integrations.
- Experience in DevSecOps practices security automation and developing security tools/products.
- Understanding and practical application of threat modelling methodologies.
- Proven ability to implement zero-trust IAM encryption and data protection strategies.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills with the ability to influence technical and non-technical audiences.
- Desire and ability to mentor junior engineers and shape the future of the cloud security function.
Nice to Have (Preferred Qualifications)
- Knowledge of cloud security frameworks such as NIST CSF CIS Benchmarks ISO 27017 CSA CCM and SOC 2.
- Security certifications such as AWS Certified Security Specialty Azure Security Engineer Associate CKS CISSP or GIAC Cloud Security certifications.
- Experience contributing to open-source security projects or building internal security frameworks.
