Ontic
Role Description
Ontic is seeking a Senior Cloud Security Engineer to lead the maturation of our AWS cloud security program. This role will assess, design and automate security controls, partner closely with Engineering and DevOps teams, and build the technical foundation required for continuous compliance, FedRAMP readiness, and secure cloud operations.

- Partner with engineering teams on secure architecture and cloud best practices.
- Improve cloud monitoring, detection, and security metrics.
- Support customer security requirements and compliance initiatives, including SOC 2, ISO 27001, and FedRAMP.
Success Criteria
- Cloud security controls are automated, repeatable and auditable.
- Continuous evidence collection reduces manual audit effort.
- Security is embedded into engineering workflows.
- AWS security posture improves through measurable automation and engineering-driven controls.
- Ontic is positioned to mature toward modern FedRAMP continuous authorization practices.
Qualifications
- AWS cloud security expertise required.
- Direct FedRAMP Moderate or High experience preferred.
- Knowledge and understanding of FedRAMP CR-26 and/or 20x preferred.
- AWS Bedrock experience preferred.
- Infrastructure as code, with Terraform preferred.
- Security automation and scripting.
- CI/CD security integration.
- Cloud detection and monitoring.
- Experience supporting regulated SaaS environments and cloud compliance initiatives.
