Security Engineer
We're looking for a Security Engineer focused on designing and building scalable technical solutions. This mid level role requires 6+ years of relevant experience.
About the role
- Design and implement enterprise security architectures for OCI tenancies, including landing-zone guardrails, security zones, and compartment policies.
- Configure and operate OCI Identity Domains, federation with corporate IdPs, and strong RBAC strategies across the tenancy.
- Implement strong key management and secrets handling using OCI Vault, including key rotation and HSM integration where appropriate.
- Harden OCI compute, networking, and database workloads using CIS benchmarks, OCI Security Zones, and internal security standards.
- Operate OCI Cloud Guard for continuous detection and response, tuning detectors and remediating findings.
- Configure and operate OCI Logging, OCI Audit, and integration with SIEM platforms for centralized monitoring and forensics.
- Implement data security controls using OCI Data Safe, including data masking, sensitive data discovery, and privileged user analysis.
- Lead vulnerability management programs, including image scanning, patching, and remediation tracking.
- Drive compliance with regulatory frameworks such as PCI-DSS, HIPAA, SOC 2, ISO 27001, or FedRAMP.
- Conduct threat modeling and architecture reviews for new OCI workloads.
- Lead security incident response on OCI, including containment, investigation, and post-incident review.
- Develop security automation tooling using Python, Terraform, and OCI CLI/SDK.
- Maintain comprehensive, current technical documentation — including architecture diagrams, design decisions, configuration references, runbooks, and operational procedures — so that the system remains supportable, auditable, and easy to onboard new engineers onto over time.
- Provide mentorship and security guidance across application and infrastructure teams.
- 5+ years of cloud security experience, with strong hands-on time on OCI.
- Deep experience with OCI Identity, IAM policies, and identity federation.
- Hands-on experience with OCI Cloud Guard, Security Zones, Vault, and Data Safe.
- Solid understanding of cloud-native security frameworks and CIS benchmarks.

- Working knowledge of regulatory frameworks (PCI-DSS, HIPAA, SOC 2, ISO 27001).
- Strong scripting skills (Python, Bash) and Terraform.
- Experience integrating cloud workloads with SIEM platforms.
- Oracle Cloud Security Professional certification.
- CISSP, CCSP, or equivalent industry security certifications.
- Experience with multi-cloud security architectures.
- Familiarity with SOAR platforms and automated incident response.
- Exposure to zero-trust architecture patterns.
