Cloud Security Control Engineer
We are seeking a Cloud Security Control Engineer to help design, implement and continuously improve security controls across cloud environments. The role will support the protection of infrastructure, applications, data and services by translating security policies and regulatory requirements into practical, measurable controls. You will work closely with cloud engineering, architecture, risk, compliance and operations teams to ensure that security is embedded throughout the technology lifecycle.
Key responsibilities include developing and maintaining cloud security control frameworks, standards and technical requirements; assessing cloud services and architectures for security risks; and supporting the implementation of identity and access management, network security, encryption, logging, monitoring, vulnerability management and configuration controls. You will define control objectives, create evidence requirements, monitor control effectiveness and coordinate remediation activity where gaps are identified. The role will also contribute to security reviews, audit preparation, risk assessments, incident investigations and continuous improvement initiatives. You may be expected to automate control testing and compliance reporting using cloud-native tools, scripting and infrastructure-as-code techniques.
The successful candidate will have experience in cloud security engineering, security governance or technology risk, with a strong understanding of major cloud platforms and their associated security services. Knowledge of recognised security frameworks and standards, such as ISO 27001, NIST, CIS Benchmarks or SOC 2, is highly desirable. You should be comfortable interpreting technical and regulatory requirements, documenting controls clearly and communicating risk to both technical and non-technical stakeholders. Experience with security information and event management, configuration management, vulnerability scanning, DevSecOps or policy-as-code would be advantageous. Relevant professional certifications in cloud, cybersecurity, audit or risk are welcome. We are looking for someone analytical, collaborative and proactive, with strong attention to detail and the ability to manage competing priorities in a changing environment.
