About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Secure Architecture & Design Reviews: Provide security guidance for cloud architectures and changes (network segmentation, private connectivity, encryption patterns, key management), and review designs for risk and alignment to standards.
Identity & Access Management (IAM): Implement and maintain least-privilege access using AWS IAM/Organizations and Azure Entra ID/RBAC, including privileged access workflows, role design, service principals, and periodic access reviews.
Security Monitoring & Detection Engineering: Enable and tune cloud-native security signals (e.g., CloudTrail/Config/GuardDuty, Azure Activity Logs/Defender for Cloud/Sentinel) and ensure centralized logging, alerting, and actionable runbooks.
Vulnerability & Configuration Management: Drive patching and vulnerability remediation for cloud workloads and platform services; enforce secure configuration baselines and continuously assess drift using CSPM/configuration tools.
Security Automation & DevSecOps: Build guardrails and automate security controls with Infrastructure as Code (e.g., Terraform) and scripting (Python/Bash/PowerShell), including policy-as-code, CI/CD checks, and standardized hardened templates.
Compliance, Risk & Governance: Maintain cloud security standards, support audits (e.g., HITRUST), evidence collection, risk assessments, and exception management; translate control requirements into actionable technical controls.
Stakeholder Partnership: Collaborate with cloud/platform teams and application owners to prioritize security work, provide guidance, and deliver secure-by-default patterns without blocking delivery.
