What you will do

  • Run the cloud-native application protection platform: tune it, widen coverage, and turn findings into prioritized work
  • Set cloud security posture standards across AWS accounts and track how well teams follow them
  • Tighten identity and access: least privilege, role design, less standing access
  • Bake secure defaults and guardrails into infrastructure as code and deployment pipelines

What they look for

  • 8+ years in security, infrastructure or software engineering, much of it on cloud security
  • Deep hands-on AWS work at scale: IAM, Organizations, networking, logging, core security services
  • Experience operating CNAPP or CSPM tools such as Orca, Wiz or Upwind
  • Container and Kubernetes security, for example EKS, plus threat modeling and incident response

Nice to have

  • Track record of leading cross-team technical initiatives without direct authority
