## Description

* We are trying to improve security in Google Cloud Platform. This role is all about moving the needle in the cloud security space. We do have some Azure and AWS, but it is 95% Google Cloud Platform.
 * Candidates so far - resumes are good, but often the main issue is that they don't even know the basics of Google Cloud Platform. When we ask basic questions about how Google Cloud Platform works, they candidates don't know. We've also had a lot of issues with AI and reading answers. We also ask about Terraform knowledge and usually candidates are pretty good with that. Just overall, we need candidates that have very strong foundational knowledge of Google Cloud Platform.
 * If they have been a DevOps engineer, or cloud engineer with Google Cloud Platform, we can make it work. The Google Cloud Platform foundational knowledge is most important; we can teach the security aspect.
 * Open to more junior candidates that have genuine Google Cloud Platform knowledge. Adrien said that he has talked to people right out of college that have done projects that are well versed in Google Cloud Platform, and they would work out well., We are looking for an experienced Cloud Security Engineer to drive the remediation of our public cloud platforms (Google Cloud Platform, Azure and AWS). In this role, you will own the resolution of many critical issues already identified and prioritized in our cloud footprint, working either directly to solve the issues at stakes or coordinating infrastructure and engineering team to achieve this goal. You will work at the intersection of cloud resources, backend systems, networking, and data engineering to deliver scalable security solutions., * Cloud Issues Remediation: Develop and execute mitigation plans to address high-priority issues in Google Cloud Platform, Azure or AWS. This will typically involve updating Terraform repositories and/or scripting the remediation steps to fix the same issue in multiple projects.
 * Secrets Management: Coordinate the rotation of mismanaged cloud secrets which can only be done by the end users (engineering or infrastructure teams).
 * Addressing Root Cause: While your main goal will be fixing existing cloud resources, you will need to address the root cause to avoid the issues from reoccurring in future deployments
 * Validation: You will be responsible to validate that the issues has been effectively remediated either directly by you or your partner teams.
