 * Configure and manage AWS-native security services: WAF, Shield, GuardDuty, Inspector, Security Hub, KMS, Secrets Manager, IAM.
 * Define and enforce least-privilege IAM policies, secrets management standards, and encryption (at rest/in transit) across workloads.
 * Conduct secure code reviews and vulnerability triage; partner with dev teams on remediation and secure coding practices (OWASP Top 10, CWE).
 * Harden infrastructure-as-code (Terraform/CloudFormation) using policy-as-code (OPA, Checkov) and guardrails (SCPs, Config rules).
 * Support penetration test coordination, findings remediation, and audit/compliance requirements (SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI-DSS as applicable).
 * Respond to application-layer security incidents; contribute to detection rules and runbooks.
 * Mentor engineers and champion DevSecOps culture across delivery teams.
