The Cloud Security Engineer is a critical member of the Online, Applications, Cloud and AI Security team. The Engineer's role is to act as a technical bridge between the security leadership's strategic requirements and the hands-on implementation of security controls within the company's cloud infrastructure. The Engineer must be able to translate high-level IT-risk requirements into technical cloud security specifications, as well as develop automated metrics for ongoing performance measurement and reporting.

This is a technical leadership role that requires an individual with a strong background in cloud-native technologies, as well as an ability to work with the broader IT organization to align security configurations with key business objectives. The Engineer will act as an expert technical representative during cloud planning initiatives to ensure that security measures are incorporated into the architecture and that service expectations are clearly defined. The role is responsible for balancing real-world security risks with business drivers such as speed, agility, and performance in a DevOps environment.

Expertise in managing technical security projects and engineering automated solutions is essential for success in this role. In addition to supporting the Information Security policies, the Cloud Security Engineer must be able to prioritize technical efforts—balancing cloud security controls definition, immediate detection and remediation tasks with longer-term architectural security improvements. Documentation skills, analytical thinking, and the ability to identify cloud security gaps and take initiative are key requirements of the position. 

Responsibilities: 

The Cloud Security Engineer's job is composed of a variety of tactical and operational activities in support of the cloud security program, including:

• Work with the IT Online, Applications, Cloud and AI Security Director and the broader security and IT leadership stakeholders to implement technical security projects that address identified risks in cloud environments.

• Assist resource owners and IT staff in understanding and responding to security audit failures and cloud configuration vulnerabilities.

• Manage production security issues and incidents within cloud platforms, participating in problem and change management forums.

• Work with stakeholders to identify cloud-based information asset owners and classify data and systems within the control framework.

• Provide technical support and guidance for legal and regulatory compliance efforts, specifically regarding data residency and cloud governance.

• Consult with IT and engineering staff to ensure that security is factored into the selection and configuration of cloud services and applications.

• Design and implement technical controls to support and enforce defined security policies in AWS, Azure, or GCP.

• Research, evaluate, and test new cloud security hardware or software, analyzing its impact on the existing hybrid-cloud environment.

• Provide technical expertise for the administration of security tools, such as Cloud Workload Protection Platforms (CWPP) and Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM).

• Work with the enterprise architecture team to ensure the convergence of business, technical, and security requirements in the cloud.

• Manage technical security projects and provide expert guidance on security matters for other infrastructure and development projects.

• Assist the disaster recovery planning team in the selection of cloud-native recovery strategies and the testing of disaster recovery plans
