About the role

  • At the senior end of this role, you'll help draft external- and auditor-facing communication and represent the team in cross-team planning.
  • The base salary range for this position is 150,000 - 251,900 USD.

Responsibilities

  • Own Kubernetes and container security end to end - harden EKS clusters and the Istio service mesh against the CIS Kubernetes Benchmark, DISA Kubernetes STIG, and NSA/CISA Kubernetes hardening guidance, design and enforce Kubernetes RBAC and least-privilege workload identity (IRSA/pod identity), and drive controls for the container supply chain (image provenance, admission control, runtime policy).
  • Build and operate security-focused platforms, services, and automation at scale - using Python/Go, Terraform, and Kubernetes policy-as-code - that reduce manual work and let 30+ engineering teams move quickly and safely.
  • Design and roll out Service Control Policy (SCP) guardrails and least-privilege IAM/PAM across dozens of accounts and multiple orgs.
  • Lean into AI to unlock efficiency and velocity - consume agentic tooling in day-to-day work and build lightweight agentic solutions that streamline repetitive security work: posture triage, threat modeling, risk assessment, incident enrichment and investigation, compliance-evidence generation, and detection tuning.
  • Partner closely with our AppSec and GRC teams - aligning platform controls with secure-development needs and translating hardening, identity, and encryption work into audit and compliance evidence.
  • Own PKI and encryption standards across the environment - certificate lifecycle and management, KMS-backed key management and rotation, TLS/mTLS (including within the Istio mesh), and encryption-at-rest and in-transit requirements - and define the standards other teams build against.

Requirements

  • Proficiency in Python and/or Go (or similar) and Infrastructure as Code (Terraform).
  • Deep expertise with AWS security services and least-privilege IAM/PAM - IAM family, Organizations/SCPs, Secrets Manager, KMS, GuardDuty, CloudTrail, and Config.
  • Ability to automate security controls as code (Kubernetes policy-as-code) and inform detection strategy in a modern SIEM (e.g., CrowdStrike NG-SIEM, Splunk), including threat hunting within your domains.

Nice to have

  • Hands-on expertise in PKI and cryptography - certificate lifecycle/management, TLS/mTLS, key management and rotation (AWS KMS or similar HSM/KMS), and encryption at rest and in transit.
  • Hands-on hardening to CIS Benchmarks and DISA STIGs within a FedRAMP (or similar) program
  • familiarity with NIST CSF, SOC 2, or ISO 27001
  • and experience partnering with AppSec and GRC teams to produce compliance evidence.
  • Cloud-native security tooling such as Wiz (CNAPP/Threats) and CrowdStrike Falcon runtime protection
  • Azure security exposure (Entra ID, Defender for Cloud) a plus.
  • Demonstrated mentoring, strong written and verbal communication, and working knowledge of PagerDuty's Incident Management and Process Automation products.
