Job Summary

The Cloud Security Engineer secures the platform that hardware engineering teams trust to ship every day. Youll own the security engineering layer of Duros modern stackcloud security posture detection and threat hunting security telemetry and the security infrastructure that protects multi-tenant dedicated and regulated (GovCloud/ITAR) environments. This is a security-first role on a small fast-moving team reporting into the CISO organization where youll partner closely with platform engineering product and compliance to make security an accelerator rather than a gate. Were looking for an engineer who thinks in adversaries and systems automates relentlessly and leverages modern AI-augmented workflows to build defenses that scale. This is a hybrid role based in Los Angeles CA (3 days per week in office).

A day in the life of our Cloud Security Engineer:

  • Cloud Security Engineering: Design and operate the security posture of Duros AWS commercial and GovCloud environmentsIAM and least-privilege access models KMS/encryption policy VPC segmentation network controls and secure-by-default guardrails across accounts and tenants.
  • Threat Detection & Hunting: Proactively hunt across cloud application and identity telemetry for anomalous and adversarial behavior. Build and tune detections as code reduce false positives and turn hunt findings into durable automated coverage.
  • Threat Intelligence: Operationalize threat intelligenceintegrate feeds contextualize indicators and TTPs against Duros attack surface and drive proactive hardening ahead of emerging threats.
  • Logging Monitoring & Reporting: Architect and administer centralized logging SIEM and security monitoring across the stack. Own alerting pipelines dashboards and the security metrics and reporting that inform leadership customers and compliance evidence.
  • Security Infrastructure Implementation & Administration: Implement administer and continuously improve the security tooling estateCSPM vulnerability management endpoint and workload protection secrets management and cloud-native security services (GuardDuty Security Hub CloudTrail Config WAF Inspector).
  • Application & Pipeline Security: Embed security into the SDLC and CI/CDsecure GitHub Actions pipelines integrate SAST/DAST/SCA enforce secrets hygiene and secure container and Kubernetes workloads from build through runtime.
  • Security as Code: Build reproducible version-controlled security infrastructure and guardrails using Terraform policy-as-code and containerizationso controls are enforced automatically and drift is caught early.
  • Compliance-Driven Controls: Partner with CISO leadership to implement and evidence controls mapped to SOC 2 ITAR and GovCloud requirements translating framework obligations into concrete technical enforcement.
  • AI-Driven Security Engineering: Leverage AI-augmented workflows to accelerate detection engineering triage and control implementation while maintaining rigorous validation and review standards.
  • Incident Response: Support detection investigation containment and post-incident hardeningreducing mean time to detect and respond and feeding lessons learned back into automated coverage.

How We Build

We dont just ship features. We build platforms that make shipping inevitableand secure by default.

At Duro AI is integrated into our engineering and security workflows. Engineers leverage AI-powered environments to orchestrate tasks structure context and accelerate delivery and defense while maintaining high standards of operational and security excellence.

We value:

Adversarial intuition understanding how systems fail and how attackers think before building the defense Detection over hope coverage you can measure tune and trust expressed as code Precision in communication clear control design produces reliable auditable systems Pattern recognition knowing when to abstract automate or simplify Operational discipline building controls that are observable resilient and self-healing Intellectual curiosity continuously improving how we secure and scale

We optimize for engineers who can build security that fades into the backgroundenabling teams to deploy daily with confidence not friction.
