Responsibilities

• Advise the leadership of your team and partner teams on security issues, explaining the business risk each one carries.
• Make cloud-native environments on AWS, OCI and GCP more secure by building in secure-by-default controls.

• Manage IAM and RBAC for cloud infrastructure, working with IT to give unified access control through streamlined authentication and authorization.
• Deploy, connect and operate security platforms and services, such as SIEM, SOAR, domain monitoring, endpoint tooling and cloud security tooling.
• Respond to security incidents and strengthen environments afterwards.
• Help monitor controls and remediate gaps for compliance initiatives.
• Collect and analyse security metrics to resolve issues that span several teams.
• Work closely with engineering teams to understand their needs and deliver practical, scalable security solutions that add as little friction as possible.

• You are familiar with CI/CD systems and SecOps workflows using Git and Terraform in cloud environments (GCP, AWS, Azure or OCI).
• You have practical experience with one or more of: infrastructure automation, network segmentation, system hardening, container and cloud security concepts, and security observability.
• You have worked in multiple languages, such as Golang and/or Python.
• You can work through ambiguity, make sound decisions with incomplete information, and change your approach as requirements shift.
• You solve problems in a flexible and constructive way.
• You can weigh build versus buy, build solutions yourself, and assess which existing tools fit.
• You understand secure engineering best practices and can explain problems and propose solutions to both technical and non-technical audiences.
