We are looking for an experienced Cloud Security Engineer to join our technical team. The Cloud Security Engineer will be responsible for designing, implementing and operating security controls across our cloud environments (AWS, Azure and/or GCP), securing containerized infrastructures based on Kubernetes, and integrating security into CI/CD pipelines. This is an ideal opportunity for a profile with a solid mastery of production environments and a strong focus on cloud and application security, wishing to evolve within an advanced technological context.

Responsibilities:
  • Design, implement and maintain security architectures and controls for public cloud platforms (AWS, Azure and/or GCP), including network, identity and data protection.

  • Secure containerized workloads and orchestrators (Docker, Kubernetes), including image scanning, runtime protection and cluster hardening.
  • Integrate security into CI/CD pipelines (Dev Sec Ops ) with tools for SAST, DAST, dependency scanning and secrets scanning (e.g. integrated with Git Lab CI or similar platforms).
  • Implement and operate security monitoring and alerting using SIEM, CSPM/CNAPP and cloud-native tools (e.g. Cloud Trail, Guard Duty, Security Center, Security Command Center).
  • Manage secrets and encryption keys using solutions such as Hashi Corp Vault, cloud KMS and secret managers, ensuring secure storage and rotation.
  • Perform regular security assessments, threat modeling, vulnerability management and remediation follow-up across cloud services and applications.
  • Contribute to incident response activities: detection, triage, investigation, containment and post-incident review.
  • Work closely with development, operations and compliance teams to promote security best practices and ensure alignment with internal policies and regulatory requirements.
Requirements:

Experience with Dev Sec Ops  practices and integration of security controls into CI/CD pipelines (e.g. Git Lab CI, Git Hub Actions, Jenkins).

Knowledge of container and Kubernetes security (RBAC, Pod Security, network policies, image scanning and secure configuration).

Strong skills in scripting and automation (Bash, Python) to automate security checks, reporting and remediation.
