- Improve security visibility, monitoring, and detection across our environment.
- Contribute to security initiatives across cloud, product, workforce, and emerging technologies such as AI.

- Practical experience with AWS, including IAM, networking, logging, and cloud-native services.
- Good understanding of Kubernetes, containers, and modern cloud-native architectures.
- Hands-on experience with AI/LLM security, AI-assisted development environments, or agentic systems, including an understanding of their emerging security risks and controls.
- Experience working with infrastructure-as-code and CI/CD environments such as Terraform, Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or similar.
- Solid understanding of networking and core security principles.
- Ability to investigate technical problems, understand the underlying risk, and build practical solutions.
- A strong ownership mindset and willingness to continuously learn and develop as a security professional.
