Cloud Security Specialist
We are seeking a Cloud Security Specialist to help protect cloud-based platforms, applications, and data across a rapidly evolving technology environment. In this role, you will design, implement, and maintain effective security controls across public, private, and hybrid cloud infrastructures. You will work closely with infrastructure, engineering, DevOps, and compliance teams to identify risks, strengthen security posture, and support the secure delivery of new services.
Your responsibilities will include monitoring cloud environments for vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, suspicious activity, and policy violations; conducting security assessments and risk reviews; and recommending practical remediation plans. You will develop and maintain cloud security standards, policies, procedures, and architecture patterns, while helping to embed security into infrastructure-as-code and continuous integration and delivery pipelines. The role will also involve supporting identity and access management, encryption, network security, logging, threat detection, incident response, and security investigations. You may contribute to audits, regulatory assessments, penetration testing, and the ongoing improvement of security monitoring and reporting.
The successful candidate will have hands-on experience securing cloud environments and a strong understanding of services and security controls within platforms such as AWS, Microsoft Azure, or Google Cloud. Knowledge of cloud-native security tools, infrastructure-as-code technologies, containers, Kubernetes, scripting, and automated security testing is highly desirable. You should be confident analysing complex technical issues, communicating risk to both technical and non-technical stakeholders, and working collaboratively in a fast-paced environment. Relevant professional certifications in cloud, cybersecurity, or information security are advantageous. A proactive mindset, strong attention to detail, and a commitment to continuous learning are essential.
