Job Description:

• We are seeking a seasoned IAM & Cloud Security Engineer to drive the secure migration of identity, access, and security workloads from AWS to Azure and Google Cloud Platform, while establishing Policy-as-Code (PaC) and IAM Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) automation frameworks.
• This role combines deep technical expertise in cloud IAM, policy governance, CI/CD automation, and infrastructure security. You will define, implement, and operationalize a unified security automation pipeline across Azure and Google Cloud Platform environments for Smart TV and Mobile Cloud infrastructure workloads.
• You will collaborate closely with DevOps, Cloud Platform, and Security Architecture teams to ensure secure-by-design implementations and compliance alignment across all environments.

Key Responsibilities:

• Identity and Access Management (IAM) Migration
• Lead IAM migration from AWS IAM policies, roles, and groups to Azure Active Directory, Azure RBAC, and Google Cloud Platform IAM roles and bindings.
• Develop Terraform IaC modules to automate IAM resource creation across Azure and Google Cloud Platform environments.
• Ensure the least privilege and separation of duties principles are enforced in all IAM configurations.
• Integrate cloud identity providers (Azure AD, Cloud Identity) with corporate SSO (SAML/OIDC).
• Establish service identities, workload identities, and managed identities for CI/CD and application workloads.
• Policy-as-Code (PaC) Governance
• Define and implement Policy-as-Code frameworks to enforce cloud governance and compliance baselines in Azure and Google Cloud Platform.
• Develop and maintain PaC pipelines using Terraform Sentinel, OPA (Open Policy Agent), or Azure Policy.
• Establish CI/CD pipelines for Policy-as-Code validation, testing, and deployment.
• Provide guidance and best practices for developing reusable and scalable PaC modules.
• Implement policy version control, exception management, and automated compliance enforcement.
• Collaborate with security architects to define policy coverage requirements (IAM, networking, encryption, storage, and tagging).
• CI/CD and Automation for Security & IAM
• Design and establish CI/CD pipelines for IAM IaC and Policy-as-Code deployments across Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, and Google Cloud Build.
• Automate security control deployments using Terraform, including IAM roles, key management, and network policies.
• Integrate policy compliance checks into the CI/CD flow for both infrastructure and application security pipelines.
• Build reusable Terraform pipelines to enforce consistent security posture across environments.
• Establish pipeline security gates (pre-deployment and post-deployment) for IAM and PaC changes.
• Security Workload Migration (AWS , Azure & Google Cloud Platform)
• Migrate security workloads such as WAF configurations, key management (KMS), and security analytics from AWS to Azure and Google Cloud Platform.
• Develop IaC for host infrastructure and application security controls in target clouds.
• Map AWS security services (IAM, KMS, WAF, GuardDuty) to Azure Security Center, Defender for Cloud, and Google Cloud Platform Security Command Center equivalents.
• Recreate AWS Config Rules and SCPs as Azure Policies and Google Cloud Platform Organization Policies.
• Ensure encryption, secrets management, and logging solutions are replicated or enhanced in target platforms.
• Participate in testing, validation, and audit readiness for migrated security components.
• Security Monitoring, Compliance & DR Integration
• Integrate monitoring and alerting with Azure Monitor, Google Cloud Platform Operations Suite, and SIEM tools.
• Enable IAM and security event logging via Azure Activity Logs, Google Cloud Platform Audit Logs, and Cloud Logging.
• Contribute to Disaster Recovery (DR) security alignment ensuring IAM, policy, and encryption configurations are recoverable and consistent across regions.
• Maintain auditability and compliance mapping (ISO 27001, NIST, SOC 2)
