Infogain is seeking a highly skilled and experienced SecOps Engineer to join our dynamic team and play a key role in securing and maintaining our AWS cloud infrastructure. This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to a global digital engineering company that partners with Fortune 500 enterprises across industries.
As a SecOps Engineer, you will work at the intersection of security operations, cloud engineering, and automation. You’ll collaborate with cross-functional teams, including DevOps, architecture, and software development, to proactively identify vulnerabilities, implement best practices, ensure security compliance, and harden our systems and infrastructure against emerging threats.
We are looking for someone who is not only technically proficient, but also detail-oriented, proactive, and passionate about cloud security. If you’re someone who thrives in a fast-paced, collaborative environment and enjoys solving complex security challenges, this role is for you.
Key Responsibilities
- Security & Compliance Oversight. Continuously monitor and ensure security across AWS accounts, services, and resources. Lead initiatives to align infrastructure with industry best practices and regulatory compliance requirements.
- Vulnerability Management. Perform detailed security assessments to detect vulnerabilities and misconfigurations in AWS services such as IAM, S3, EC2, VPC, Security Groups, NACLs, Endpoints, and more. Work closely with risk owners to implement mitigation strategies.
- Automation & Tooling. Automate security controls and processes using scripting languages such as Python or Bash. Leverage AWS CLI and Boto3 to build and optimize custom scripts that reduce manual overhead and enforce security posture at scale.
- Policy & Access Control Management. Create, review, and manage IAM and S3 policies using AWS policy language in JSON. Ensure least-privilege access, secure key management, and identity federation strategies are in place.
- Network Security. Apply a deep understanding of TCP/IP protocols and network principles to maintain a secure and resilient cloud network architecture.
- Infrastructure Hardening. Support and modify underlying AWS infrastructure to improve security — including patching OS, managing backups, monitoring/logging, and ensuring secure user access.
- Cloud Security Best Practices. Stay up-to-date with the latest AWS security trends, tools, and technologies. Proactively evaluate and adopt new security measures and frameworks.
- Documentation & Collaboration. Maintain technical documentation using Atlassian Confluence and manage tasks through Jira. Work collaboratively in Agile/Scrum teams across geographies.
- CI/CD & DevSecOps Integration. Contribute to secure CI/CD pipelines and assist with deployment automation. Ensure security controls are integrated into the software development lifecycle.
