The engineer will work closely with Vulnerability Management and AI Security Teams. Cloud exposure management and platform ownership  Configure, administer, optimize, and troubleshoot cloud security and exposure management platforms such as Wiz or Prisma Cloud. Manage cloud account and subscription onboarding, connectors, permissions, policies, rules, integrations, dashboards, and platform health across Azure, AWS, and other in-scope cloud services.  CTEM operations and risk prioritization Support the continuous threat exposure management lifecycle by identifying and validating cloud exposures, analyzing attack paths and toxic combinations, prioritizing material risk, coordinating remediation with accountable teams, validating closure, and tracking exceptions. Translate platform findings into a focused, risk-based backlog rather than a high-volume queue of uncontextualized alerts.  Security automation and engineering Design and build reusable automation for cloud security operations using Python, PowerShell, REST APIs, JSON/YAML, workflow orchestration, serverless services, and Infrastructure as Code. Automate asset onboarding, policy deployment, enrichment, ticket routing, evidence collection, remediation validation, reporting, and other repeatable engineering tasks.  Cloud security architecture and guardrails Define and implement cloud security requirements, reference patterns, preventive guardrails, and detective controls for identity, network, workload, container, Kubernetes, data, secrets, logging, and configuration security.
