Partner closely with the Google Cloud Platform (GCP) engineering and operations teams and Security stakeholders to help design, implement, and continuously improve secure-by-default cloud foundations and security controls that enable business delivery while reducing risk
Lead security architecture and engineering initiatives that strengthen the confidentiality, integrity, availability, and resilience of GCP workloads and data through guardrails, automation, and clear security patterns that scale
Own day-to-day administration and ongoing maturity of the SecOps SIEM (Google Security Operations / Chronicle), including log onboarding, detection engineering, tuning, and operational reporting in partnership with Security Operations and Incident Response
Define and implement secure GCP reference architectures (landing zone, org/policy guardrails, identity, network segmentation, encryption, logging) and reusable security patterns
Engineer preventive and detective controls using automation and infrastructure-as-code (guardrails, baselines, continuous configuration enforcement)
Coordinate with platform and application teams to integrate security into CI/CD pipelines and deployment workflows (including workload/container security)
Own SecOps SIEM administration and detection engineering: log onboarding, parsing/normalization, rule development, tuning, dashboards, and alerting
Drive cloud security risk reduction through security reviews, threat modeling, and remediation of critical findings across GCP services
