About the role

  • Build Secure-by-Default Infrastructure: Design and implement cloud-hardened architectures, secure base images (containers, VMs), and environments with embedded native security controls.
  • Automate Security as Code: Be an expert in Policy-as-Code and Security-as-Code. Create and maintain Terraform modules, admission policies, and automated controls that prevent insecure configurations before deployment.
  • Implement and Manage Security Controls: Operate cloud security tools, identity & access management (IAM), endpoint security, DLP, and threat monitoring systems.
  • Manage Perimeter Defenses: Configure and maintain edge security solutions (WAF, CDN, anti-bot), ensuring secure change processes, pre-production testing, and rollback procedures when needed.
  • Enable Engineering Teams: Work alongside engineers to integrate security from the start, build tools and frameworks that enable secure development, and make security an accelerator — not a bottleneck — for team velocity.
  • Support Incident Response: Define response playbooks for cloud and platform security incidents, acting as a senior technical specialist when needed.
  • Maintain Compliance and Best Practices: Ensure adherence to security frameworks (CIS, NIST, OWASP, PCI-DSS, LGPD) and stay up to date on emerging threats and mitigation technologies.

Requirements

  • Builder mindset: Hands-on experience in Cloud Security, Platform Security, DevSecOps, or Security Engineering. You are passionate about building preventive solutions from scratch.
  • Communication and Influence: Excellent communication skills to document complex systems, influence teams, and promote a security-first culture.
  • Cloud-Native Security Experience: Strong experience with cloud security architecture and hardening practices.
  • Autonomy and Ownership: You take responsibility, make well-founded technical decisions, and work independently on complex end-to-end problems.
  • Automation Skills: Strong scripting and automation capabilities to codify security policies and build internal tools.
  • Data Security Perspective: Familiarity with data security (DLP, classification, encryption, key management).
