- Infrastructure Hardening and Drift Detection - implement automated drift alerts and self-healing playbooks for VPCs, firewall rules, Kubernetes clusters, and endpoints.
- Monitoring, Logging, and Incident Response - configure Cloud Audit Logs, SIEM exports, and custom alerts for critical security events; lead root-cause investigations, build detection logic, and develop runbooks for cloud-wide incidents.
Requirements:
- 5+ years driving security and compliance in dynamic, regulated environments- securing cloud-native platforms and hybrid infrastructures, with deep familiarity in fintech and portfolio-management standards, and best practices for supporting distributed, remote teams.
- Deep expertise with GCP security (IAM, KMS, VPC Service Controls, Cloud Logging/Audit, WAF, SecOps) and Kubernetes application hardening.
- Strong Infrastructure-as-Code skills (Terraform or equivalent) and GitOps experience (ArgoCD, Flux).
- Proficiency in Python scripting and policy-as-code frameworks (OPA, Gatekeeper).
- Excellent communicator - able to translate technical findings into clear policies and remediation plans.
Helpful Experience:
- Familiarity with multi-cloud security controls.
- Security certifications (GCP Professional Security Engineer, CISSP, CKA/CKS).
- Experience with service mesh (Istio/Anthos) or zero-trust architectures.
