Project – the aim you’ll have
Join our Cloud & Security practice to drive security improvements across existing environments on GCP & AWS. You’ll collaborate with platform, SRE, and product teams to harden services, embed security in delivery, and reduce risk through automation. This is a continuous- improvement role focused on incremental changes and reliability, not greenfield builds. Work remote from the EU or on-site in our PL hubs.
Position – how you’ll contribute
- Partner with platform, SRE, and application Teams to identify and deliver security improvements in existing GCP & AWS estates.
- Implement guardrails and secure defaults(IAM least privilege, org policies/SCPs, encryption, secrets) as reusable patterns.
- Embed scanning and supply-chain controls in CI/CD (SAST/DAST, image & secret scanning,SBOMs).
- Strengthen container and Kubernetes security (GKE/EKS) with admission, runtime, and network policies.
- Build actionable logging, monitoring, and alerting (Cloud Logging/CloudWatch, Prometheus/Grafana, ELK/OpenSearch).
- Design and deliver changes as Terraform (modules, testing, pipelines, policy-as-code).
- Contribute to incident response playbooks and post-incident improvements.
Expectations – the experience you need
- 4+ years in DevSecOps/Cloud Security/Platform roles across GCP & AWS.
- Practical Terraform expertise (HCL, modules, state, testing) and an “everything as code” mindset.
- Strong knowledge of IAM, network security, encryption, secrets, and logging/monitoring.
- Experience securing containers and Kubernetes (GKE/EKS), including admission & network policies.
- Hands-on with vulnerability, dependency, and secret scanning; familiarity with SBOMs.
