Aws Security Jobs in Remote, OR (NOW HIRING)

The Role

Lumen Security Advisory Services is hiring a Cloud Security & Vulnerability Management consultant to join a team that delivers customer-facing security assessments and vulnerability management engagements across cloud environments and customer premises. The primary focus is cloud security posture assessment, where the team evaluates customer environments against industry compliance frameworks, identify vulnerabilities and misconfigurations, and help customers understand their security posture and build practical remediation strategies. A secondary focus is vulnerability management, where the team deploys and manages scanning platforms in customer environments, configure and tune the platform alongside customers, develop patching strategies aligned to customer needs, and guide remediation prioritization and planning.

This is a hands-on consulting role on a small, fast-moving team. You'll work directly with customers, run assessments using commercial and custom-built tooling, and contribute improvements to shared platforms and codebases.

The Main Responsibilities

Cloud Security (Primary Focus)

• Deliver cloud security posture assessments across AWS, Azure, and Microsoft 365 environments
• Evaluate customer environments against CIS Benchmarks, cloud provider security frameworks and best practices, and customer-specific compliance standards
• Use custom-developed assessment frameworks and cloud-native security tooling to identify misconfigurations and security gaps
• Perform cloud resource inventory and exposure analysis
• Prioritize findings by risk and develop clear remediation guidance

Vulnerability Management

• Deploy and manage vulnerability scanning platforms in customer environments
• Configure and tune scanning platforms alongside customers, including patching strategy development
• Analyze scan results, prioritize findings by severity and business impact, and guide remediation planning
• Understand vulnerability types, severity frameworks (e.g., CVSS, vendor-specific), and how to communicate risk to customers

Consulting & Delivery

• Participate in customer-facing activities: kickoff calls, technical interviews, working sessions, and findings presentations
• Contribute to assessment reports and remediation roadmaps for technical and executive audiences
• Communicate technical risk clearly to non-technical stakeholders

Tooling & Platform Development

• Contribute to a custom-built cloud security assessment platform (AWS native services)
• Develop and maintain custom security checks and automated compliance scanning tools
• Work with AWS and Azure cloud infrastructure components
• Write and maintain scripts for assessment automation and reporting

What We Look For in a Candidate

Required Experience

• Hands-on experience with at least one major cloud platform (AWS preferred; Azure, M365 also valued)
• Understanding of cloud security posture management (CSPM) concepts and the differences between platform-level tools (e.g., Wiz) and assessment-focused tooling
• Familiarity with compliance frameworks such as CIS Benchmarks, SOC2, PCI-DSS, or NIST
• Understanding of vulnerability management concepts: vulnerability types, severity scoring, remediation prioritization
• Strong communicator able to explain technical findings to both engineers and executives
• Comfortable writing Python and working in Git 
• Experience with AI-assisted development and automation tools such as GitHub Copilot, Microsoft Copilot Studio and agent building,
• Power Automate, and Claude
• Willingness to learn new tools and platforms quickly

Preferred Experience

• Microsoft 365 security experience (Entra ID, Defender, Exchange, Teams, SharePoint, Intune)
• Experience with cloud security scanning tools or CSPM platforms
• Experience with vulnerability management platforms, particularly Qualys (preferred) or Tenable
• Experience Level
• 3-5 years' experience in cloud security, vulnerability management, security consulting, or a related technical security role
  Certifications
• Relevant certifications (AWS, Azure, CISSP, or similar), however, demonstrated experience matters more

What We're Looking For:

• Curious, hands-on, and forward thinking. You learn by building, testing, and breaking things
• Comfortable balancing technical depth with customer-facing delivery
• Effective in a small team where you own outcomes, not just tasks
• Able to point to relevant work: assessments delivered, tools built, security problems solved
