• Experience designing and securing cloud network architectures and implementing least-privilege access at scale.
• Practical experience with infrastructure as code (Terraform preferred) and production-grade Kubernetes security.

Nice to have

• Experience with cloud security posture management (CSPM) platforms such as Prisma Cloud, Wiz, or Lacework.
• Background in cloud detection and response, including rule development or automated remediation playbooks.
• Experience implementing zero-trust architectures or advanced micro-segmentation strategies.
• Relevant certifications such as AWS Security Specialty, CKS, or CCSP.
