Job Responsibilities

  • Designs, develops, and maintains secure software solutions for cloud network perimeter infrastructure, writing high-quality production code and reviewing code written by others across the full development lifecycle

  • Uses enterprise-authorized AI capabilities within the work environment to accelerate threat modeling, vulnerability analysis synthesis, and security documentation, validating outputs and ensuring sensitive data is handled appropriately.

  • Builds and manages infrastructure-as-code (IaC) to automate the provisioning, configuration, and scaling of cloud networking and proxy infrastructure in a consistent, repeatable, and auditable manner

  • Manages and operates enterprise-scale proxy infrastructure, ensuring high availability, performance, and security of egress traffic controls across cloud environments

  • Develops and maintains automation tooling to streamline network configuration, proxy onboarding workflows, certificate management, and policy enforcement

  • Troubleshoots complex network and proxy connectivity issues across cloud environments, applying structured diagnostic approaches to identify root cause and drive resolution

  • Collaborates with application teams, platform engineers, and architects to design secure and scalable network connectivity patterns that meet both technical and business requirements

  • Minimizes security vulnerabilities by following industry insights and evolving best practices, continuously improving network perimeter controls and validating their effectiveness

  • Adds to team culture of diversity, opportunity, inclusion, and respect

  • Applies reuse-first, AI-assisted practices within SDLC/toolchain routines to strengthen security testing and control validation, ensuring traceability/auditability and alignment to resiliency and security expectations.


Required Qualifications, Capabilities, and Skills

  • Formal training or certification in software engineering, security engineering, or network engineering concepts and 5+ years of applied experience in one or more of these disciplines

  • Strong Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) experience using Terraform to provision and manage cloud networking and proxy infrastructure (e.g., reusable modules, remote state management, CI/CD integration, drift detection, and change controls)

  • Strong Python experience building automation for cloud infrastructure and networking workflows, including authoring AWS Lambda functions and using boto3 to automate AWS operations.

  • Hands-on AWS experience implementing and troubleshooting core services across networking, compute, security, and observability (e.g., AWS Lambda, EC2, VPC, Transit Gateway, PrivateLink/VPC endpoints, NLB, Route 53, CloudWatch, IAM)..

  • Knowledge of security best practices and relevant regulatory expectations, with experience evolving controls and implementing mechanisms to measure/validate control effectiveness over time

  • Ability to review and validate AI-assisted code/security recommendations before adoption, escalating uncertainty and ensuring outcomes align to security, resiliency, and auditability expectations.

  • Good communication skills, teamwork capabilities, and a self-learning attitude

  • Demonstrated experience using enterprise-authorized AI capabilities to accelerate security engineering workflows (e.g., threat modeling, vulnerability analysis synthesis, documentation), with strong validation habits and appropriate handling of sensitive data


Preferred Qualifications, Capabilities, and Skills

  • Experience with forward or reverse proxy technologies and architectures at enterprise scale (e.g., F5, Squid, Envoy, or equivalent)

  • Hands-on experience with TLS/SSL certificate management, PKI, mTLS, and truststore configuration in cloud-native environments

  • Strong understanding of proxy protocols (HTTP CONNECT, HTTPS, SOCKS5), DNS-based routing, and network egress control patterns
