Requirements
- 5+ years of experience across cloud engineering, cloud security, and cybersecurity engineering in enterprise environments
- Genuine multi-cloud expertise: expert-level, hands-on experience in at least one major cloud (Azure, AWS, or Google Cloud) and strong working proficiency across the others, including exposure to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, with the ability to translate security concepts fluently between providers rather than defaulting to a single vendor's toolset
- Cloud identity depth across providers: hands-on experience with Microsoft Entra ID, AWS IAM / Identity Center, Google Cloud IAM, and/or OCI IAM federation, MFA, conditional and context-aware access, privileged access, and workload/non-human identity
- Practical experience applying AI/ML or large language models to cloud data analysis, detection, triage, or automation
- Experience designing and securing cloud architectures, hybrid environments, and cloud networking, VNets, VPCs, VCNs, VPNs, private connectivity, firewalls, and zero-trust patterns, on more than one platform
- Hands-on experience with cloud-native security services across providers (Microsoft Defender and Sentinel, AWS Security Hub and GuardDuty, Google Security Command Center, OCI Cloud Guard) plus third-party CNAPP/CSPM platforms
- Experience securing SaaS applications and their integrations: posture hardening, OAuth and third-party app governance, audit telemetry, and data protection, across platforms such as Microsoft 365, Workday, ServiceNow, and similar enterprise services
- Strong Infrastructure as Code and automation proficiency: Terraform (preferred), plus scripting in Python and PowerShell; experience embedding security checks into CI/CD pipelines
- Strong understanding of cloud governance, regulatory compliance (PCI-DSS, SOX, tribal gaming regulations), risk management, and security best practices
- Relevant certifications preferred: AWS Security Specialty, Google Professional Cloud Security Engineer, Microsoft AZ-500 or SC-100, Oracle Cloud Security Professional, CCSP, CISSP, and/or HashiCorp Terraform Associate, multi-provider credentials valued over depth in a single vendor track
