Job description

Job Description

We’re looking for a Senior Cloud Security Architect to own and evolve our AWS security architecture across a multi-account environment.

You’ll define guardrails, design secure patterns, and partner with platform and product teams to ship resilient, compliant services at speed.

What you’ll do

  • Architect Cloud Foundations: Support the strategy for our core AWS environment, including our multi-account structure, network security patterns (TGW, VPCs), and identity and access management (IAM) at scale.

  • Secure the Software Development Lifecycle: Partner with engineering teams to embed security into every stage of development.

    This includes defining standards for container security (EKS), securing CI/CD pipelines with policy-as-code, and promoting secure Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) modules.

  • Lead Threat Detection and Response: Design and implement the strategy for cloud threat detection and monitoring.

    Serve as the primary technical expert during cloud security incidents to guide investigation and containment.

  • Govern Data Protection and Encryption: Establish and oversee the enterprise strategy for data security in the cloud, defining standards and reference patterns for cryptographic services (KMS), data discovery, and service-specific encryption controls.

  • Drive Governance, Risk, and Enablement: Translate compliance requirements (e.g., ISO 27001, SOC 2) into actionable cloud controls.

    Empower engineers by leading threat modeling sessions, facilitating architecture reviews, and publishing reusable security patterns.

  • Evaluate and Integrate Security Tooling: Lead the evaluation, selection, and strategic integration of modern cloud security platforms (e.g., CNAPP, CSPM, CIEM) to provide measurable value and actionable insights.

 

 


Qualifications

  • Solid EKS security (IRSA, PSP/PSS, network policies, admission control via Kyverno/Gatekeeper) and container supply-chain fundamentals.

  • Experience building policy-as-code and guardrails that block risky changes pre-merge without blocking delivery.

  • Competent in at least one language (Python or Go) plus shell; capable of writing small tools and automations.

  • Excellent stakeholder communication and documentation.
