Job description

The Cloud Product Security Engineer is a hands-on security engineer responsible for building, integrating, and operating security controls within cloud environments. This role focuses on engineering preventative, detective, and responsive security capabilities across cloud infrastructure, data platforms, and application services. It includes building and operating cloud security posture management (CSPM) and data loss prevention (DLP) capabilities to continuously detect, assess, and reduce risk in cloud environments. Engineers in this role own the full software development lifecycle from design and implementation through deployment and production support and are accountable for the reliability, adoption, and effectiveness of cloud security controls, including their role in incident detection, response, and recovery., * Design, build, and operate cloud-native security controls as software products across cloud infrastructure, data platforms, and application services

  • Engineer and maintain cloud security posture management (CSPM) and data loss prevention (DLP) capabilities to continuously detect, assess, and reduce risk in cloud environments
  • Build preventative, detective, and responsive security controls that integrate directly into cloud platforms, CI/CD pipelines, and shared enterprise services
  • Integrate cloud security controls with SIEM and security tooling to generate high-quality signals for detection, investigation, and incident response
  • Support incident handling and response by engineering detection logic, automation, and response mechanisms that improve containment and recovery
  • Apply modern cloud and software engineering practices (e.g., infrastructure as code, automated testing, CI/CD) to ensure security controls are reliable, scalable, and maintainable.
  • Collaborate with platform engineers, application teams, and Digital Product Managers to align cloud security controls with architectures and developer workflows.

Requirements

  • All applicants must demonstrate they have a legal right to work in the UK for employment at Allstate. Allstate is not providing sponsorship for this vacancy.
  • A minimum of 3+ years of professional software or security engineering experience, including ownership of production systems in cloud environments.
  • Hands-on experience engineering security controls within public cloud platforms (e.g., AWS and/or Azure), spanning infrastructure, platform services, or application-level integrations.
  • Background building or integrating cloud security posture management (CSPM), data protection, or data loss prevention (DLP) capabilities as engineered solutions.
  • Understanding of cloud-native architectures and services (e.g., identity, networking, storage, compute) and how security controls integrate into them.
  • Capability to engineer preventative, detective, and responsive security capabilities, including detection logic, automation, or response workflows.
  • Practical application of modern engineering practices such as infrastructure as code, automated testing, CI/CD, and operational feedback loops.
  • Ability to collaborate effectively with platform engineers, application teams, and security partners to deliver cloud security outcomes.

Desirable Skills:

  • Working knowledge of cloud service provider security services and patterns (e.g., identity, networking, encryption, logging) and their use in real-world cloud architectures.
  • Practical exposure to advanced CSPM techniques, including policy-as-code, drift detection, and automated remediation.
  • Experience with data classification, data handling, or data protection strategies that support DLP in cloud-hosted systems.
  • Familiarity with security telemetry, logging pipelines, and SIEM platforms used for detection, investigation, and incident response.
  • Hands-on involvement in incident response or post-incident analysis from an engineering perspective (e.g., improving detections, controls, or recovery mechanisms).
  • Exposure to infrastructure-as-code and cloud automation tooling used to deploy, configure, and secure cloud resources at scale.
  • Understanding of secure design principles for cloud-native and distributed systems, including identity-centric and least-privilege approaches.
  • Demonstrated interest in continuously improving cloud security controls through learning, experimentation, and collaboration.
  • Proficiency in one or more modern programming languages (e.g., Python, Java, JavaScript), with the ability to write, review, and maintain production-quality code., Agile Methodology, Cloud Engineering, Cloud Infrastructure, Cloud Platform, Cloud Security, Product Security, Python (Programming Language), Security Engineering, Security Practices, Security Software, Software Engineering Practices, Vulnerability Management
