Job Description & Summary

About the team

Join our Cloud Security Engineering team as a Senior Associate to help shape the security of a global, multi-cloud platform. In this hands-on role, you'll design, implement, and support cloud security solutions, contribute to high-impact projects, and partner with stakeholders across the business and technology. You'll work closely with senior engineers to build out our Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) capabilities while developing deep expertise in cloud security.
