What you need

  • Minimum 8 years of experience in cloud security, security engineering, or a related infrastructure security discipline.
  • Hands-on experience with a cloud security posture management (CSPM) platform — CrowdStrike, Wiz, Prisma Cloud, Orca, or equivalent.
  • Deep familiarity with AWS security architecture: IAM/SCP policy design, VPC networking, security groups, CloudTrail, and cloud-native security controls.
  • Proficiency with infrastructure as code (IaC) tools such as Terraform, OpenTofu, or CloudFormation, with an understanding of how to enforce security standards within IaC workflows.
  • Strong Python and shell scripting skills for security automation, detection rule development, and tooling integration.
  • Must be a US Citizen or legal permanent resident.

Nice to have

  • AWS GovCloud experience.
  • Hands-on Kubernetes security experience: securing and managing production clusters, including Network Policies, RBAC, and Admission Controllers.
  • Experience with cloud-native SIEM solutions, including writing detection rules in Python or SQL.
  • Experience securing microservices architectures, including service mesh security (Istio or Linkerd).
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Security, or a related field.

What you get

  • Estimated base salary range of $180,000- $200,000 annually + bonus.

  • Medical, dental and vision insurance.
  • Life and disability insurance.

  • EAP and other wellbeing resources.

Worth weighing

  • No specific mention of team size or structure, which may affect collaboration.
  • Role emphasizes autonomy and proactive measures, which may not suit candidates preferring structured environments.
  • Cloud environments primarily based on AWS; candidates with GCP or Azure experience may need to adapt.
  • Position involves significant responsibility with potential for high impact, which may lead to pressure in performance expectations.
