TL;DR · Cybersecurity Engineer

The Cybersecurity Engineer is responsible for designing, implementing, and operating security controls that protect cloud-native platforms and workloads across AWS, Azure, and GCP environments. Working closely with engineering, DevOps, and architecture teams, the individual ensures services are secure by design, compliant with regulations, and resilient at scale. This role involves securing Kubernetes and container platforms, managing Infrastructure as Code via Terraform or CloudFormation, and embedding security into CI/CD pipelines. The engineer also provides oversight for AI-enabled capabilities on the Pismo platform, ensuring LLM adoption aligns with data protection principles. Key technical competencies include IAM, network segmentation, mTLS, encryption, and API security using OAuth/OIDC. Additionally, the role requires expertise in managing enterprise-grade AI platforms like Anthropic Claude and OpenAI while navigating complex regulatory frameworks such as PCI DSS, ISO 27001, and GDPR.

What you'll do

  • Design, implement, and operate security controls for cloud-native platforms across AWS, Azure, and GCP.
  • Secure production workloads using Kubernetes, container platforms, and Infrastructure-as-Code tools like Terraform.
  • Manage cloud identity and access management (IAM), network segmentation, and encryption key management.
  • Integrate security controls into CI/CD pipelines and monitor for configuration drift.
  • Provide security oversight for AI-enabled capabilities and Large Language Model (LLM) integrations.
  • Ensure all cloud services comply with regulatory requirements such as PCI DSS, ISO 27001, and GDPR.
  • Translate technical security findings into risk-based recommendations for engineering and leadership teams.

What we're looking for

  • A Bachelor's degree or 5 years of relevant work experience is required.
  • Mandatory hands-on and architectural knowledge of enterprise-grade AI and LLM platforms including Anthropic Claude and OpenAI.
  • Proven ability to design, review, and implement security controls across multicloud environments (AWS, Azure, GCP).
  • Experience securing Kubernetes, container platforms, and infrastructure using tools like Terraform or CloudFormation.
  • Ability to embed security controls into CI/CD pipelines and manage cloud identity, network segmentation, and encryption.
  • Strong understanding of API security, data protection, and secure software development lifecycle (SSDLC) practices.
  • Working knowledge of security and compliance frameworks such as PCI DSS, ISO 27001, SOC 2, GDPR, or NIST.
  • Experience with cloud security tooling and relevant certifications like CCSK, CCSP, CISSP, or cloud-specific security certs (preferred).
