• Actively write code, develop automation, and integrate security controls throughout the software development lifecycle, collaborating with engineering teams to embed security from ideation to deployment.

• Facilitate security requirements clarification for multiple networks to enable multi-level security that satisfies organizational needs.

• Drive adoption and direct implementation of emerging cybersecurity technologies (e.g., zero trust architectures, container security, AI/ML-driven security analytics) to enhance the organization's security posture.
• Be responsible for triaging based on risk assessments of various threats and managing resources to cover the impact of disruptive events.
• Utilize a deep understanding of the threat landscape and risk to build security into products and new features.
• Mentor and provide technical guidance to junior engineers through code reviews and knowledge sharing, while remaining an individual contributor.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with product, infrastructure, and business teams to ensure security requirements are understood, prioritized, and implemented effectively.
• Stay abreast of the latest cybersecurity trends, threat intelligence, and attack techniques, and translate insights into actionable improvements for the organization.

• Develop and maintain incident response playbooks, and lead post-incident reviews to drive continuous improvement from a technical perspective.

• Actively contribute to an inclusive team environment by mentoring and supporting diverse perspectives.

Required Qualifications, Capabilities, and Skills

• Obtain 5 plus years of applied training or certification on software engineering concepts 
• Proven track record in hands-on design, development, and deployment of enterprise-grade security solutions in public cloud environments (AWS, GCP, Azure), with direct experience integrating security controls into cloud-native architectures.
• Demonstrated ability to perform comprehensive threat modeling and risk assessments for applications, systems, and architectures using frameworks such as STRIDE, DREAD, or PASTA.
• Advanced proficiency in at least one modern programming language (e.g., Python, C/C#, Go, Java) and scripting for automation and security tooling, with a focus on building and deploying solutions.
• Deep understanding of secure software development practices, including code review, static/dynamic analysis, and vulnerability remediation across multiple technology domains (cloud, AI/ML, mobile, etc.).
• Experience implementing and managing CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Jenkins, GitHub Actions) with integrated security testing and controls.
• Expertise in version control systems (e.g., Git, BitBucket) and agile work management tools (e.g., Jira), with a focus on collaborative, cross-functional engineering environments.
• Ability to independently solve complex design and functionality challenges, proactively identifying and mitigating security risks with minimal oversight.
• Experience working with vendors to assess the sufficiency of their security practices and controls to meet industry standards.
• Strong analytical and communication skills, with the ability to translate technical security requirements into actionable engineering tasks and clear documentation.

Preferred Qualifications, Capabilities, and Skills

• Experience with modern security engineering practices, such as infrastructure as code (IaC), DevSecOps, and automated security testing.
• Hands-on experience with cloud-native security tools (e.g., AWS Security Hub, Azure Sentinel, GCP Security Command Center) and container orchestration platforms (e.g., Kubernetes).
• Active participation in the cybersecurity community, such as contributing to open-source projects, attending or speaking at conferences, or publishing research.
• Experience implementing zero trust architectures, micro-segmentation, or advanced identity and access management solutions.
• Strong understanding of privacy and data protection regulations (e.g., GDPR, CCPA) and their impact on security engineering.
• Experience within Cyber Security is preferred with a good understanding of industry frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK, NIST, CIS, etc.
• Relevant advanced certifications (e.g., CISSP, CCSP, AWS Certified Security Specialty, GIAC, OSCP) are highly desirable.
• Excellent communication and presentation skills, with the ability to convey complex security concepts to technical and non-technical audiences.
