Are you passionate about securing cloud infrastructures and ensuring that data and applications are protected against emerging cyber threats? Do you have the technical expertise to design, implement, and maintain secure cloud environments that support business objectives and maintain compliance? If you're ready to take the lead on cloud security and safeguard cutting-edge systems, our client has the perfect role for you. We're looking for a Cloud Security Engineer (aka The Guardian of the Cloud) to build and maintain robust security measures that protect cloud-based infrastructures and support scalable, secure growth.

As a Cloud Security Engineer at our client, you'll work closely with IT teams, developers, and security professionals to design and implement cloud security protocols, manage risk assessments, and respond to potential threats. Your role will be essential in maintaining a secure cloud environment, ensuring data protection, and fostering a culture of proactive security across the organization.

Key Responsibilities:

  1. Design and Implement Cloud Security Solutions:
  • Architect and deploy security measures to protect cloud environments, focusing on network security, identity management, and data protection. You'll ensure security measures align with business goals and compliance standards.
Conduct Risk Assessments and Vulnerability Management:
  • Perform regular security assessments, identifying vulnerabilities and implementing solutions to mitigate risks. You'll stay ahead of potential threats by continuously analyzing security processes and integrating necessary improvements.
Ensure Compliance with Security Regulations:
  • Maintain compliance with industry standards and regulations such as GDPR, HIPAA, and ISO. You'll develop and enforce policies that meet regulatory requirements and ensure that cloud infrastructure adheres to security best practices.
Develop and Maintain Security Monitoring Tools:
  • Implement and manage security monitoring tools that track and alert on suspicious activities in cloud environments. You'll be responsible for setting up dashboards, alerts, and automated responses to security incidents.
Collaborate with Cross-Functional Teams:
  • Work with DevOps, IT, and software development teams to integrate security measures into the software development lifecycle. You'll advocate for secure coding practices and ensure that security is embedded throughout the deployment pipeline.
Respond to Security Incidents:
  • Lead the response to security incidents, conducting investigations and implementing measures to prevent future occurrences. You'll provide detailed incident reports and ensure that lessons learned are applied to improve security posture.
Stay Updated on Cloud Security Trends:
  • Keep current with the latest developments in cloud security, threat intelligence, and best practices. You'll integrate new tools and techniques that strengthen cloud security and keep the organization ahead of evolving threats.
Requirements

Required Skills:
  • Cloud Security Expertise: Strong experience in securing cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure), with knowledge of cloud-native security tools like AWS Security Hub, Azure Security Center, and GCP Security Command Center.
  • Threat Detection and Incident Response: Proficiency in threat modeling, security incident response, and forensics. You're adept at setting up and managing intrusion detection and prevention systems.
  • Compliance and Regulatory Knowledge: Familiarity with compliance standards such as GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA, and ISO, and the ability to implement policies that ensure compliance in cloud infrastructures.
  • DevSecOps and Automation Skills: Experience integrating security into CI/CD pipelines, with knowledge of Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools like Terraform or AWS CloudFormation. You understand how to automate security checks and enforce security best practices.
  • Communication and Collaboration: Ability to work effectively with cross-functional teams to embed security into all phases of cloud operations. You can clearly communicate complex security concepts to both technical and non-technical teams.
Educational Requirements:
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, or a related field. Equivalent experience in cloud security engineering may be considered.
  • Certifications in cloud security (e.g., Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP), AWS Certified Security - Specialty, or similar) are highly desirable.
Experience Requirements:
  • 5+ years of experience in cybersecurity, with at least 3+ years specializing in cloud security for large-scale cloud infrastructures.
  • Hands-on experience with implementing security tools, automating security measures, and managing compliance in cloud-based environments.

  • Health and Wellness: Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance plans with low co-pays and premiums.
  • Paid Time Off: Competitive vacation, sick leave, and 20 paid holidays per year.
  • Work-Life Balance: Flexible work schedules and telecommuting options.
  • Professional Development: Opportunities for training, certification reimbursement, and career advancement programs.
  • Wellness Programs: Access to wellness programs, including gym memberships, health screenings, and mental health resources.
