Senior Cloud Security Engineer / DevSecOps / Azure & AWS

This global fintech organization is seeking a Senior Cloud Security Engineer / Architect to help shape and secure their multi-cloud infrastructure. Operating in a fast-paced, highly regulated industry, the team is focused on tightening visibility and reducing risk across cloud environments, making this a great fit for someone who enjoys balancing technical depth with security strategy. The culture is laid-back and collaborative, but the work is focused and impactful, with strong cross-functional ties to both development and architecture teams. This is a Full-Time, Direct-Hire, Remote position working the EST/CST time zone.

The position sits at the intersection of Cloud Architecture, DevOps, and Security, with a primary focus on Azure and AWS, as well as containerized workloads (Docker > Kubernetes). You'll assess risk exposure, map vulnerabilities to deployed infrastructure, and help drive automation across cloud pipelines. Experience with infrastructure-as-code, container security, and working in hybrid or multi-cloud environments is key. Familiarity with PCI-DSS, SOX, or similar GRC frameworks is a bonus. Any exposure to Wiz or similar tooling is helpful, but a strong DevSecOps foundation is most important. This role functions as a bridge between the different IT teams, so you must be comfortable as a collaborator and communicator in the space.

Required Skills & Experience

• 5+ years of experience of hands-on cloud security, DevSecOps, or infrastructure security roles
• Proven expertise with Azure and AWS, comfortable working in hybrid and multi-cloud environments
• Strong experience securing containerized workloads (Docker preferred), including vulnerability scanning and remediation
• Hands-on experience implementing automation pipelines with tools like Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, or Terraform
• Deep understanding of cloud infrastructure attack surfaces and risk mapping across services, containers, and VMs
• Familiarity with compliance frameworks like PCI-DSS and SOX, and how to align technical controls with audit requirements
• Strong collaboration skills; able to work cross-functionally with development, security, and architecture teams.

Desired Skills & Experience

• Familiarity with DevSecOps tools (e.g., Azure DevOps, Terraform, GitHub Actions)
• Experience in a SaaS or FinTech environment
• Relevant certifications (CCA, CISSP, CCSK, AWS/Azure Security).
