This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, which manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Senior Cloud Security & Compliance Engineer based in the United States.

We are seeking an experienced cloud security engineer to strengthen security posture and compliance across complex, multi-cloud environments. In this hands-on role, you will serve as a key technical resource for cloud security posture management, using Wiz or equivalent platforms to improve threat detection and reduce risk. You will develop automated security controls, custom policies, and reusable infrastructure solutions to help engineering teams build secure-by-default systems.

Working extensively with Python, Terraform, and policy-as-code frameworks, you will translate security requirements into scalable technical safeguards. You will also support regulated cloud environments, including those subject to federal security standards, through continuous monitoring and automated compliance controls. This is an opportunity to make a meaningful impact on enterprise and government cybersecurity while collaborating with technical teams to improve security and resilience.
