Senior Cloud Security Engineer
We are seeking a Senior Cloud Security Engineer to design, implement and continuously improve security across a modern, cloud-based technology environment. This is a hands-on role for an experienced security professional who can combine strategic thinking with practical engineering, helping to protect platforms, applications, data and services throughout their lifecycle. You will work closely with infrastructure, software engineering, architecture, governance and operations teams to embed secure practices into everyday delivery.
Your responsibilities will include developing and maintaining cloud security architecture, controls and standards across public cloud environments; identifying and mitigating security risks; and supporting secure configuration, identity and access management, network protection, encryption, logging and monitoring. You will lead or contribute to threat modelling, security assessments, vulnerability management, incident response and remediation activity. The role will also involve improving security automation and DevSecOps practices by integrating controls into CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure as code and automated testing. You will provide technical guidance on security issues, contribute to policies and risk assessments, and communicate recommendations clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
You should have substantial experience in cloud security engineering, with strong knowledge of at least one major cloud platform and a sound understanding of security principles across compute, containers, serverless services, storage and networking. Experience with infrastructure as code, scripting or programming, CI/CD tooling, security monitoring and cloud-native security services is essential. Familiarity with recognised security frameworks, regulatory requirements and industry best practice would be advantageous. Relevant professional certifications are welcome, alongside demonstrable experience of delivering secure, resilient solutions in complex environments. You will be an analytical and collaborative problem-solver, able to influence effectively, manage competing priorities and remain focused during incidents or periods of change.
