Job Description:
Position Overview

The successful candidate will serve as a bridge between Security, Cloud Engineering, Architecture, and Development teams, driving the identification, assessment, remediation, and governance of cloud security risks. This individual must be comfortable operating in a highly collaborative environment while also independently creating processes, influencing stakeholders, and driving outcomes. This is an ideal opportunity for someone who thrives in an environment where they can help build and mature security processes rather than simply maintain existing programs.

- Facilitate security exception reviews and risk acceptance processes.
- Track remediation progress and provide visibility into organizational risk reduction efforts.
- Help define and mature cloud security governance processes and standards.
- Conduct technical risk assessments and communicate findings to technical and business stakeholders.
- Influence engineering teams and stakeholders to drive security improvements and remediation outcomes.
- Assist with development and enhancement of cloud security processes, workflows, and reporting.
Required Qualifications
- 5+ years of experience in Cloud Security, Security Engineering, Vulnerability Management, DevSecOps, or Infrastructure Security.
- Hands-on experience with Wiz or a comparable Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) platform.
- Experience conducting technical risk assessments and vulnerability analysis.
- Strong understanding of cloud security principles across Azure and AWS.
- Experience working with engineering and infrastructure teams to drive remediation activities.
- Strong communication and stakeholder management skills.
- Ability to work independently in a fast-paced environment.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience with cloud governance, security exception management, and risk management programs.
- Familiarity with container and cloud-native security concepts.
- Experience building or maturing security programs and processes.
- Experience working within large enterprise or regulated environments.
Ideal Candidate
The ideal candidate is a security professional who combines strong cloud security expertise with the ability to influence engineers, architects, and business stakeholders. They are comfortable identifying risk, driving remediation efforts, and helping build scalable security processes that improve the organization's overall cloud security posture.
