Security Engineer III

Role overview Own cloud threat detection and response engineering for a security-focused SaaS platform running across Azure and AWS. You’ll build the telemetry foundations, detections, automated response workflows, and cloud controls that help teams find threats quickly and prevent recurring security issues.

Responsibilities - Design a security data lake that brings together cloud, SaaS, and endpoint telemetry, with practical choices for normalization, retention, query speed, and cost. - Develop detections as code, managing each rule from hypothesis and testing through deployment, performance measurement, and retirement. - Automate alert triage and enrichment, connect runbooks to response tools, and improve detection and response times. - Harden Azure and AWS environments through identity boundaries, network controls, secrets handling, logging, and exposure management. - Deliver reusable cloud security controls through Terraform modules and CI/CD pipelines. - Coordinate remediation of cloud posture findings and assess detection coverage against a recognized threat framework.

Requirements - At least five years in security engineering, cloud operations, or detection engineering, including recent hands-on ownership of production cloud security work. - Production experience with Terraform, including authoring and maintaining modules used by other teams. - Operational depth across Azure and AWS, including identity, audit logging, and cloud security controls. - Ability to build and maintain detections, pipelines, and response automation; Python is used for tooling and enrichment. - Familiarity with detection-as-code practices, Git-based review, and CI/CD delivery. - Ability to work closely with SRE, product engineering, and security colleagues to turn findings into lasting fixes.
