We are looking for a Cloud Security Developer to join our dynamic team. In this role, you will play a critical role in designing, implementing, and maintaining cloud security solutions to protect our cloud-based systems and applications. You will work closely with our development and operations teams to ensure the security and integrity of our cloud infrastructure.

We celebrate a variety of perspectives and experiences. We are not looking for someone who checks every single box - we’re looking for lifelong learners and people who can make us better with their unique experiences.

What you'll be doing

  • Implement and maintain robust security controls to protect our cloud infrastructure and applications.
  • Discover, remediate, and validate security issues across cloud infrastructure.
  • Perform architectural/design reviews through a security lens and provide timely, actionable requirements and recommendations.
  • Collaborate with security leadership, compliance, and engineering teams to execute security strategies.
  • Build, deploy, and manage security tools such as WAF, IDS/IPS, workload protection, GCP Command Center, and Azure Security Center, etc.
  • Propose and contribute to security and compliance improvements for nesto CI/CD pipelines and deployment processes.
  • Automate infrastructure provisioning and deployment processes using Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools like Terraform or Pulumi.
  • Design and operate scalable processes to provision cloud access and maintain least privilege.
  • Participate in and support the incident detection and response process by enhancing observability and alerting and assisting the incident response team.
  • Self-organize and prioritize activities independently.
  • Support audits and first-party security questionnaires.
  • Conduct and oversee security assessments and threat modeling exercises.
  • Implement security controls within Kubernetes.
  • Build DevSecOps tools/integrations.

Who we're looking for

  • 5+ years of experience working on a team focused on infrastructure and/or security.
  • 5+ years of development experience (ideally GoLang, TypeScript/JS).
  • Knowledge of common web application vulnerabilities and the OWASP Top 10 framework.
  • The ability to analyze and act on results from DAST and SAST tools (e.g., Tenable, Snyk).
  • Skilled in DevSecOps principles and familiarity with CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Argo CD, Azure DevOps) to perform automated security testing.
  • Experience deploying and customizing security tools to address threats and lower risk, including vulnerability scanners, static analyzers, web application firewalls (WAFs), intrusion detection/prevention systems (IDS/IPS), and endpoint security monitoring.
  • A comprehensive grasp of cloud and network security, including an in-depth understanding of Kubernetes.
  • Experience in GCP specifically with one or more of the following services: Security Command Center, GKE, Cloud IDS, Cloud Armor, and Secrets Manager.
  • Experience in Azure specifically with one or more of the following services: Security Center, Azure PaaS App Services, VMs, Azure SQL, Front Door, and Key Vault.
  • Experience writing infrastructure-as-code using tooling such as Terraform, Pulumi, and Helm.
  • Knowledge of common security-related frameworks and benchmarks like CIS, NIST, and MITRE ATT&CK.
  • An understanding of identity and access management (IAM) principles and cloud-native IAM solutions.
  • Passionate about constant learning and sharing knowledge with others.
  • Bilingual (English & French).

We definitely want to talk to you if you have/are

  • Experience managing security posture by collating, digesting, and monitoring outputs from tooling.
  • Experience working with infrastructure-as-code using tooling such as Terraform, Pulumi, and Helm.
  • Skilled in DevSecOps principles and familiar with CI/CD (Github Action and Argo CD) pipelines to perform automated security testing

The Reward

  • The A-Team: Work alongside high-performing talent in the industry.
  • Accelerated Growth: The slope of your learning curve here will be vertical. You will touch more production systems in one year than you would in five years at a bank.
  • Top-Tier Coverage: Premium benefits plan fully paid by nesto, including comprehensive insurance and unlimited access to telemedicine and mental health services for you and your family.
  • Rest & Recharge: 4 weeks of vacation to ensure you stay at peak performance.
  • Best-in-Class Tools: Access to the resources and tech you need to execute without friction.
  • Working framework: The environment that makes you productive and enables teamwork (Hybrid model).
