Cloud Security Architect
We are seeking an experienced Cloud Security Architect to design, implement, and continuously improve secure cloud environments across a complex, multi-platform technology landscape. In this role, you will define cloud security architecture, standards, and patterns that support business objectives while protecting applications, data, infrastructure, and services. You will work closely with engineering, infrastructure, application development, risk, and compliance teams to embed security throughout the technology lifecycle.
Your responsibilities will include assessing cloud architectures, identifying security risks, and developing practical remediation strategies. You will establish and maintain controls for identity and access management, network security, encryption, key management, logging, monitoring, vulnerability management, and data protection. You will contribute to cloud landing zones, reference architectures, threat modelling, and security-by-design practices, while ensuring solutions align with relevant regulatory, governance, and industry requirements. You will also support security reviews, incident response, investigations, and the continuous improvement of cloud security capabilities.
The successful candidate will have substantial experience in cloud security architecture, preferably across platforms such as AWS, Microsoft Azure, or Google Cloud. You should have a strong understanding of zero-trust principles, container and serverless security, DevSecOps, infrastructure as code, networking, operating systems, and security automation. Experience with cloud security posture management, SIEM technologies, policy-as-code, and modern authentication standards would be advantageous. Relevant professional certifications, such as CISSP, CCSP, SABSA, or cloud-provider security certifications, are desirable. Strong communication and stakeholder management skills are essential, along with the ability to explain complex technical risks clearly and influence secure outcomes across technical and non-technical teams.
