👉 Why We Need You

Our Cloud Security Engineer is responsible for designing, implementing, and maintaining security controls across the organization's cloud infrastructure, with a focus on threat detection, vulnerability management, and compliance enforcement. This role is well suited to mid-career cybersecurity professionals with hands-on experience in cloud security architecture, automation, and incident response. The engineer partners with platform, DevOps, and SOC teams to harden cloud workloads, embed security into CI/CD pipelines, and respond to cloud-native threats. The role is based on-site in Hyderabad and supports global operations through a Follow-The-Sun model, coordinating with regional teams across multiple time zones.

👉 What You’ll Be Doing

• Design, deploy, and maintain security controls across AWS, Azure, and GCP environments, including IAM, network segmentation, encryption, key management, and centralized logging.

• Develop and tune cloud-native detections in SIEM, CSPM, and CWPP platforms to identify misconfigurations, anomalous activity, and indicators of compromise.

• Lead investigation and containment of cloud security incidents, partnering with SOC analysts and incident responders to drive issues to resolution.

• Build automation and infrastructure-as-code patterns (Terraform, CloudFormation, scripts) to enforce security baselines at scale and prevent configuration drift.

• Perform vulnerability assessments and configuration reviews of cloud workloads, container platforms, and Kubernetes clusters.

• Embed security guardrails into CI/CD pipelines and partner with DevOps engineers on secure-by-default reference architectures.

• Document standards, runbooks, and architecture decisions, and support audit and compliance activities (ISO 27001, PCI DSS, SOC 2).

• Communicate effectively in English when coordinating with regional and global stakeholders, and maintain awareness of cloud threats affecting financial services, retail, logistics, and other sectors relevant to the organization’s operations.

👉 What You Bring to the Team

• Bachelor's degree in Cybersecurity, Information Technology, Computer Science, Systems Engineering, or a related discipline.

• 3–5 years of experience in cloud security, information security engineering, or a closely related technical role.

• Hands-on expertise with at least one major cloud platform (AWS, Azure, or GCP) and working familiarity with at least one other.

• Solid understanding of IAM, network security, encryption, container security, and infrastructure-as-code patterns.

• Experience with SIEM, CSPM, CWPP, or cloud-native detection tooling, plus scripting skills in Python, PowerShell, or Bash.

• Prior gaming experience — whether competitive, hobbyist, or professional — demonstrating the strategic thinking, fast decision-making under pressure, and team coordination that translate to incident response and adversarial environments.

• Working proficiency in English is required to support multinational teams, with availability to work on-site in Hyderabad, India and participate in on-call rotations where required.

👉 Preferred Skills

• Cloud or security certifications such as AWS Security Specialty, Azure Security Engineer Associate (AZ-500), GCP Professional Cloud Security Engineer, CCSP, CISSP, or equivalent.

• Experience securing Kubernetes, containerized workloads, or serverless platforms in production environments.

• Familiarity with regulated industries (banking, fintech, retail, logistics) and their compliance regimes.

• Experience with threat modeling, red/purple team exercises, capture-the-flag competitions, or cloud penetration testing.

• Exposure to Microsoft security technologies (Defender for Cloud, Sentinel, Entra ID) and other enterprise security platforms.

• Strong stakeholder management skills and the ability to translate security risk into business terms for technical and non-technical audiences.
