We are seeking a hands-on cloud security engineer to serve as a primary technical resource for the Wiz platform. The team member will administer Wiz, develop custom policies as code, and automate FedRAMP and NIST SP 800-53 controls across multi-cloud environments.

Python and Terraform will be used daily.

• Increase finding quality by reducing false positives and improving detection accuracy.
• Deliver reusable Terraform modules and secure-by-default infrastructure patterns. 
• Enable engineering teams to remediate risk efficiently through automation and clear guidance.
• Support FedRAMP and other regulated cloud environments with effective technical controls and continuous monitoring.
• Build scalable security capabilities across AWS, Azure, and GCP.

• Experience with Kubernetes manifests and container security.
• Experience integrating security controls into CI/CD platforms such as GitHub Actions, GitLab, or Jenkins.
