  • Ensure cloud security architecture aligns with PCI-DSS, ISO 27001, NIST, and gaming compliance regulations.
  • Partner with fraud, legal, and compliance teams to enforce AML (Anti-Money Laundering) and KYC (Know Your Customer) security measures.
  • Automate compliance monitoring across AWS and GCP environments.

  • 5+ years of work experience securing and monitoring CI/CD pipelines and AWS cloud infrastructure.
  • 7+ years of cloud experience in IT field.
