Role Overview:
Were looking for a Cloud-Native Security Lead to drive the security strategy across our modern cloud-native stack. This role calls for a thoughtful and pragmatic engineer, someone who understands the business context, evaluates trade-offs, and proposes secure, scalable solutions. You should be comfortable navigating ambiguity, using vendor guidance as one input, not the only one, and making decisions grounded in real-world needs.
Key Responsibilities:
- Own and evolve the cloud-native security architecture across Kubernetes, APIs, CI/CD, and serverless platforms
- Define and implement practical security policies, standards, and controls
- Partner with engineering and DevOps to embed security early in the SDLC and infrastructure as code
- Evaluate and integrate security tools (e.g., SAST, DAST, CSPM, secrets management, container scanning)
- Lead risk assessments, threat modeling, and incident response planning
- Promote zero-trust principles, IAM best practices, and secure service-to-service communication
- Mentor teams and advocate for secure-by-design thinking across the organization
- Ensure security measures align with the pace and priorities of a fast-moving SaaS business
Required Qualifications:
- 7+ years of security experience, including 23 years in cloud-native environments
- Strong background in SaaS security, with understanding of multitenancy, data isolation, and platform risks
- Deep knowledge of Kubernetes, containers, cloud platforms (AWS/GCP/Azure), and DevSecOps practices
- Experience with infrastructure as code (Terraform, CloudFormation), CI/CD pipelines, and GitOps
- Strong problem-solving skills and ability to weigh business context in security decisions
- Excellent communication and cross-functional collaboration skills
