• Deliver hands‑on technical security expertise across cloud and digital services, actively contributing to solution implementation rather than operating in an assurance or purely architectural capacity.
• Embed security within Dev Sec Ops  practices, advising on secure engineering approaches, tooling, automation, CI/CD pipelines, and helping teams "shift security left" while contributing directly to technical tasks as needed.
• Engage proactively with stakeholders across technical, delivery, and senior leadership communities-translating complex security issues into clear, actionable insights and influencing decision‑making.
• Work directly in AWS and/or Azure environments, supporting secure configuration, cloud-native security patterns, and hands‑on troubleshooting in live or developing services.
• Support continuous improvement by identifying opportunities to enhance security processes, automation, tooling, and team capability.

• Demonstrable technical experience across Dev Sec Ops  tech stacks
• Demonstrable experience of operating in AWS/Azure Cloud Environments
• Zero Trust principles and practical implementation
• Secure by Design
• Logging, monitoring & detection:
  Cloud Watch, Azure Monitor, Security Center/Defender, SIEM concepts
