Cloud Security Engineer
We are seeking a Cloud Security Engineer to help protect cloud-based platforms, services, and data across a dynamic technology environment. In this role, you will design, implement, and maintain effective security controls across public and private cloud infrastructure. You will work closely with engineering, operations, architecture, and compliance teams to embed security throughout the development and delivery lifecycle, while supporting the organisation’s wider risk management objectives.
Your responsibilities will include reviewing cloud architectures, identifying vulnerabilities, and recommending practical improvements aligned with recognised security frameworks and best practices. You will configure and monitor identity and access management, network security, encryption, logging, threat detection, vulnerability management, and security monitoring capabilities. You will also contribute to incident response activities, investigate security events, support remediation efforts, and help develop playbooks, standards, and technical documentation. Where appropriate, you will automate security checks and controls using infrastructure-as-code, scripting, and continuous integration and delivery tools.
The successful candidate will have experience securing cloud environments such as AWS, Microsoft Azure, or Google Cloud, along with a strong understanding of cloud-native security principles and shared responsibility models. You should be familiar with technologies including containers, Kubernetes, serverless services, APIs, IAM, SIEM platforms, and security automation. Experience with DevSecOps practices, threat modelling, penetration testing, and relevant regulatory or industry standards would be advantageous. Strong analytical, communication, and problem-solving skills are essential, as is the ability to explain complex security risks clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders. Relevant certifications in cloud or information security are desirable, but equivalent practical experience will be considered.
