  • Demonstrated experience designing and implementing enterprise-scale cloud security architectures across AWS, Azure, and/or Google Cloud Platform environments.
  • Deep expertise in cloud security, network security, identity and access management, data protection, encryption, and infrastructure security.
  • Strong understanding of cloud-native architectures, containers, Kubernetes, DevSecOps, CI/CD pipelines, and Infrastructure as Code (IaC).
  • Experience developing enterprise security standards, governance frameworks, architecture patterns, and secure-by-design practices.
