Job description

Title: Principal Cloud Security Engineer

Location: Englewood, CO

Duration: 6 - 12 Months Contract

Job Description:

We're looking for a Principal Cloud Security Engineer who brings deep experience, sharp instincts, and hands-on skills to help a large-scale enterprise mature its GCP presence. If you've transitioned from on-prem to cloud, know your way around GCP like the back of your hand, and are ready to lead security practices at scale, this role could be the next big step in your journey. This isn't a build-from-scratch infrastructure role-it's about navigating complex systems, guiding cloud security practices, and driving compliance and resilience across thousands of machines in a mature enterprise environment.

Responsibilities:

  • Own cloud security strategy and execution for GCP, focusing on compliance, vulnerability management, and scalable controls
  • Apply your past on-prem experience to secure a hybrid environment while leaning fully into GCP for the future
  • Handle vulnerability assessments and patching processes across tens of thousands of machines, prioritizing and executing within tight timelines
  • Contribute hands-on with tools like Terraform and Ansible, with working knowledge of Python (not a developer role, but familiarity is key)
  • Guide decisions around PCI, SOC compliance, and business continuity planning (BCPs)
  • Present to senior leadership, explain security tradeoffs, and justify technical decisions with clarity and confidence
  • Mentor peers and junior team members, representing the principal level with strategic insight and technical depth
  • Participate in GCP migration projects-ideally having been involved in past cloud transition initiatives

Requirements:

  • 10+ years of experience in IT
  • 8+ years of experience in security or infrastructure roles
  • 2-4+ years of recent, hands-on experience with GCP (not just AWS)
  • Experience moving from on-prem environments to cloud-native models
  • Strong grasp of DevOps principles-comfortable automating with Terraform and Ansible
  • Working knowledge of Python for scripting and automation purposes
  • A strategic thinker with excellent communication skills-comfortable leading meetings, mentoring others, and making big-picture decisions
  • Experience in regulatory environments (PCI, SOC) with a strong understanding of compliance frameworks
  • Bonus: Prior involvement in cloud migration efforts-especially understanding when and how you engaged in the process.
