TL;DR · Cloud Network Security Engineer

The Cloud Network Security Engineer joins the Aladdin Platform Engineering team to design, implement, and maintain secure networking environments across public, private, and hybrid cloud platforms including AWS, Azure, and GCP. This role focuses on ensuring data integrity and availability by building robust security solutions for containerized applications, implementing zero-trust principles, and managing network segmentation. Day-to-day responsibilities include configuring cloud-native firewalls, monitoring traffic for anomalies, and automating security policy enforcement through Infrastructure as Code tools like Terraform and Ansible. The candidate will utilize Python for scripting, manage CI/CD pipelines, and work with technologies such as Istio, Calico, Splunk, and various networking protocols like BGP and OSPF. This role addresses the critical challenge of securing a unified investment management system by providing scalable infrastructure and automated security configurations within a complex multi-cloud environment.

What you'll do

  • Design and implement secure network architectures for hybrid and multi-cloud environments across AWS, Azure, and GCP.
  • Implement zero-trust principles, network segmentation, and end-to-end encrypted connectivity patterns.
  • Configure and manage cloud-native firewalls, security groups, and intrusion detection systems.
  • Monitor network traffic for anomalies and remediate vulnerabilities identified during penetration testing.
  • Automate security policy enforcement and infrastructure provisioning using Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools like Terraform and Ansible.
  • Develop Python scripts to automate repetitive network tasks and manage complex workflows.
  • Lead the adoption of AI-driven engineering practices to reduce operational toil and improve developer experience.
  • Provide technical guidance and documentation on security best practices for internal teams.

What we're looking for

  • Experience of 5+ years in cloud network engineering and security.
  • Expertise in network security protocols including IPSec, TLS, MacSec, and encryption standards.
  • Proficiency with cloud networking services such as VPC, VNets, Subnets, and Load Balancers.
  • Proficiency with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools like Terraform and Ansible for automation.
  • Proficiency in Python scripting to automate network tasks and manage workflows.
  • Proficiency in AI tooling and innovation.
  • Knowledge of containerized microservice orchestration, Network Policies, Istio, Calico, and OCI standards (preferred).
  • Relevant certifications such as AWS Certified Security Specialty, Azure Security Engineer Associate, CKS, CISSP, or CCSP (preferred).
