Senior Cloud Security Engineer
We are seeking a Senior Cloud Security Engineer to strengthen the security, resilience and compliance of modern cloud environments. In this role, you will design, implement and continuously improve security controls across cloud platforms, infrastructure and applications. You will work closely with engineering, architecture, DevOps and risk teams to embed security throughout the development and operational lifecycle while supporting a culture of secure-by-design delivery.
Your responsibilities will include developing cloud security architectures, reviewing infrastructure and application designs, and implementing identity and access management, network security, encryption, secrets management, logging and monitoring controls. You will lead security assessments, threat modelling and vulnerability remediation activities, as well as contribute to incident response, forensic investigations and post-incident improvements. You will also help define standards, policies and technical guardrails, automate security checks within CI/CD pipelines, and support compliance with relevant regulatory and industry requirements. The role includes mentoring engineers, promoting security best practices and communicating technical risks and recommendations to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Applicants should have substantial experience in cloud security engineering, with strong hands-on knowledge of at least one major cloud platform and its native security services. Experience with infrastructure as code, container and Kubernetes security, DevSecOps practices, security information and event management, and automated configuration or vulnerability scanning is highly desirable. You should be confident working with identity and access management, networking, operating systems and scripting languages such as Python, Bash or PowerShell. Relevant professional certifications in cloud, cybersecurity or information security are advantageous. We are looking for an analytical and collaborative professional who can manage competing priorities, investigate complex problems and deliver practical, risk-based security solutions in a fast-moving environment.
