Staff Cloud Security Engineer

• 8+ years of hands-on security engineering across cloud security and vulnerability management.
• Strong AWS security background: IAM, networking, container orchestration, and logging and audit.
• Hands-on experience securing CI/CD pipelines and Infrastructure as Code; Terraform required.
• Experience running or substantially contributing to a vulnerability management program.
• Working knowledge of OWASP Top 10 and threat modeling.
• Operates independently and drives projects without day-to-day oversight.

Nice to Have

• Experience with our stack: Wiz, Cloudflare (WAF, Gateway, Zero Trust), GitHub Advanced Security, Spacelift, and AWS-native services.
• Hands-on WAF experience in production: writing and tuning rules, managing false positives, responding when something gets through.
• AI/ML security exposure: prompt injection, data poisoning, model abuse, and the controls that mitigate them.
• Secrets management platforms (AWS Secrets Manager, Keeper, Infisical).
• Identity security across human and non-human identities.
• PCI-regulated or financial services environment.
• Familiarity with Ruby on Rails, Python, or Go.

The ideal candidate measures success by reduced risk, not tickets closed, and reaches for secure design and simplicity before another control.

They think like an attacker but bring a developer mindset to their partnership with engineering, connecting the dots across cloud, identity, and pipeline rather than treating each as a separate domain.

Engineers trust their technical judgment beyond the systems they personally own: they catch a bad design before it ships even when it isn't theirs, and they see a blocker coming early enough to design around it instead of just navigating it well after the fact.
