Cloud Security Engineer

Reference: c6qckn65ak1zahsxru3f

We are seeking a Cloud Security Engineer to design, implement, and maintain robust security controls across cloud environments. In this role, you will work closely with infrastructure, software development, platform, and compliance teams to protect systems, applications, data, and services throughout their lifecycle. You will contribute to cloud security strategy, improve operational resilience, and help embed secure-by-design principles into technology delivery.

Your responsibilities will include monitoring and assessing cloud environments for vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, suspicious activity, and compliance risks. You will develop and maintain security policies, standards, guardrails, and automated controls across platforms such as AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud. You will support identity and access management, network security, encryption, secrets management, logging, threat detection, and security incident response. The role will also involve reviewing architecture and infrastructure-as-code, advising on remediation plans, conducting risk assessments, and helping teams resolve security findings efficiently. You may contribute to security tooling, vulnerability management, penetration testing coordination, audit preparation, and continuous improvement of cloud security processes.

The successful candidate will have proven experience in cloud security engineering, DevSecOps, or a closely related discipline, with practical knowledge of at least one major public cloud provider. You should understand cloud-native security principles, IAM concepts, network segmentation, container and Kubernetes security, security monitoring, and common attack techniques. Experience with Terraform or similar infrastructure-as-code tools, CI/CD pipelines, scripting languages such as Python or PowerShell, and security frameworks including ISO 27001, NIST, or CIS is desirable. Relevant professional certifications are advantageous. We are looking for someone analytical, collaborative, and comfortable communicating technical risks to both specialist and non-specialist audiences. The ability to manage priorities, investigate incidents, document solutions clearly, and promote a strong security culture will be essential.
