As a Cloud Security Engineer, you will play a critical role in ensuring the security and integrity of our cloud infrastructure. You’ll collaborate closely with operations and engineering teams to design, implement, and monitor cloud-native security controls while fostering a culture of security awareness across the organization. This role requires a strong understanding of cloud technologies, security best practices, and an ability to mentor teams on implementing robust security measures.
Key Responsibilities
- Cloud Security Implementation & Monitoring. Work closely with operations and engineering teams to design, implement, and fine-tune cloud-native security monitoring, tooling, and reporting systems.
- Policy & Standards Development. Define and enforce cloud security policies, standards, and best practices that align with industry standards and organizational requirements.
- Network Design & Anomaly Detection. Architect cloud-based network traffic flows, driving the development and enhancement of anomaly detection capabilities.
- Mentorship & Knowledge Sharing. Mentor and guide engineering and operations staff in the application of cloud-specific security controls, helping them understand and navigate unique cloud security challenges.
- Tool Development. Develop and enhance tools to address cloud-specific anomaly detection and monitoring requirements, ensuring proactive identification and mitigation of security risks.
- Security & Performance Balance. Partner with solutions architects to balance performance and security, fostering a security-first mindset across the teams.
- Infrastructure Review & Threat Modeling. Perform regular reviews of cloud infrastructure for security vulnerabilities and adherence to cloud best practices. Develop threat models to identify risks and prioritize architectural improvements.
- Authentication & Authorization. Drive the adoption of reference architectures for managing authentication and authorization across cloud infrastructure.
- Security Awareness & Training. Educate peers and cross-functional teams on leveraging the latest cloud-native technologies when developing services, systems, and applications.
- Compliance Management. Contribute to the creation and management of a secure, compliant cloud-native service catalog. Maintain compliance across production, development, and corporate environments hosted in public cloud platforms.
- Collaboration & Process Improvement. Work closely with engineering and operations teams to implement controls and processes that address identified security gaps and ensure the continuous improvement of our cloud security posture.
- Documentation & Change Control. Maintain and update comprehensive documentation, including network diagrams, security architecture plans, and change control processes to support secure cloud operations.
Requirements
- Proven experience in cloud security engineering, architecture, or operations.
- Expertise in cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure, or GCP.
- Strong understanding of security frameworks, policies, and cloud-native tools.
- Experience in developing and implementing cloud-specific security controls, threat modeling, and risk mitigation strategies.
- Proficiency in scripting and automation to support security operations.
