  • Embed security controls across infrastructure and platform services.
  • Implement controls across IAM, encryption, networking, vulnerability management, and compliance auditing.
  • Enable automated detection and remediation workflows.
  • Provide technical leadership across engineering teams.
  • Mentor engineers and promote secure-by-default practices.
  • Continuously improve platform security posture.
  • Drive implementation and enforcement of cloud security controls at scale.
  • Balance hands-on technical work with strategic leadership.

Your background: 

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or related field (or equivalent experience.)
  • Extensive experience in cloud security engineering and architecture (AWS, Azure, GCP.)
  • Strong software engineering skills.
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills.
  • Experience with infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, Ansible, or similar.)
  • Experience with policy-as-code, Open Policy Agent (OPA), and automated enforcement.
  • Experience complying with industry standards (ISO 27001, SOC II) and regulatory requirements.
 
Additionally, it would be beneficial if you have: 
  • Experience designing enterprise-scale multi-cloud environments.
  • Advanced cloud and security certifications.
  • Experience with tools such as Wiz or similar.
  • Strong understanding of container and Kubernetes security.
  • Experience leading large-scale initiatives and mentoring engineers.

If this sounds like you and fits your experience and career goals, we’d be happy to chat.

What we offer in return is the opportunity to experience a great company culture with wonderful colleagues to learn from and collaborate with and also to enjoy:

  • Health insurance plan that provides coverage for a wide range of medical services, including doctor visits, dental, emergency care, and preventative care, for yourself, your spouse, or your dependent children (until 18 years old and up to 25 years old if they are full-time students, with proof of eligibility).
  • Life and disability insurance for our employees. 
  • Competitive salary, bonus or commission (according to your position), and best-in-class Employee Stock Purchase Program (ESPP) with a 27-month lookback
