- Design and implement IAM, encryption, network, and logging controls in cloud environments (AWS, Azure, GCP)
- Integrate and tune security tooling (SAST, DAST, SCA, secret scanning, IaC scanning, CSPM) in CI/CD pipelines
- Build and tune detection content in SIEM and cloud-native security tools; participate in incident response
- Lead vulnerability management and remediation work across application, infrastructure, and container environments
- Map controls to compliance frameworks (SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI, ISO 27001, NIST) and support audit evidence collection
- Collaborate with developers, platform engineers, and architects to embed security into delivery practices
- Use agentic AI tools (e.g., Claude, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Coco, or similar) in real delivery work, following the client's agentic AI operating model and usage guidelines
Skills
- 4-7 years owning security engineering work across cloud, application, and infrastructure domains
