Perform security reviews and risk assessments of cloud workloads, identifying gaps and supporting remediation.
Configure and maintain cloud security tooling for monitoring, detection, and response, including logging, alerting, and integrations with SIEM.
Implement access controls, identity permissions, encryption, and key management to protect data in transit and at rest.
Partner with application and infrastructure teams to remediate cloud security findings and reduce misconfigurations.

May perform other duties as assigned Qualifications Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Security, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
