Senior Cloud Security Engineer

Responsibilities

• Build security tooling, automation, and services for cloud security-implementing secure patterns that engineering teams can adopt
• Implement security best practices and provide technical input on cloud security, IAM architecture, network security, and infrastructure-as-code
• Implement and maintain security controls that strengthen the security posture of our cloud environments across Azure and AWS
• Implement secure-by-default cloud infrastructure including IAM , network architecture (VPCs, subnets, NACLs, Security Groups, Transit Gateways), data protection, encryption, and security monitoring
• Operate and maintain PKI infrastructure for cloud environments-including private CA hierarchies (AWS Private CA, AD CS), certificate lifecycle management, mTLS for service-to-service authentication, and load balancer certificate management
• Operate and maintain HashiCorp Vault as the central secrets management platform-including Vault PKI engine, dynamic secrets, authentication methods, and policy management. You'll build and maintain this infrastructure, not just configure managed services
• Partner with Kubernetes Security Engineer to implement unified PKI infrastructure across cloud and container environments, providing input on design decisions. Collaborate on K8s IAM integration, network policies, node security, and CSI driver security
• Design and troubleshoot multi-account and multi-VPC network topologies-diagnosing connectivity issues and security group misconfigurations across cloud environments
• Build automation and tooling to enforce security policies, detect misconfigurations, and respond to threats in cloud environments
• Execute cloud security posture management (CSPM), threat detection, and incident response projects
• Implement security improvements to infrastructure-as-code, CI/CD pipelines, and deployment processes
• Partner with engineering teams to implement secure cloud architectures for new capabilities and workloads
• Build security testing tools, CLI utilities, and dashboards to continuously validate security controls
• Solve complex security challenges in multi-cloud environments
• Leverage AI tools to accelerate development and automate security workflows

Requirements

• Active security clearance or ability to obtain and maintain security clearance
• Experience securing production cloud environments at scale, with strong understanding of cloud security models, attack patterns, and defensive strategies across Azure and AWS
• Strong software development skills in Python (preferred) and/or Go with experience building security tooling and automation
• Strong software engineering fundamentals: comfortable with data structures, algorithms, API design, debugging production systems, and working across multiple languages
• Strong Terraform skills including module design and infrastructure-as-code security best practices
• Experience building security tooling or automation used by engineering teams
• Strong experi

Space is a warfighting domain. True Anomaly seeks those with the talent and ambition to build the technology that secures it. OUR MISSION True Anomaly delivers decisive capabilities for space superiority. We build autonomous spacecraft, advanced payloads, mission software, and space-based interceptors - enabling the U.S. and its Allies to secure the space environment and counter threats from the ultimate high ground. OUR VALUES Be the offset. We create asymmetric advantages with creativity and ingenuity. What would it take? We challenge assumptions to deliver ambitious results. It's the people. Our team is our competitive advantage and we are better together. YOUR MISSION Cloud security at True Anomaly isn't about checking compliance boxes-it's about protecting infrastructure that enables space domain awareness and satellite operations. As our Senior Cloud Security Engineer, you'll build security tooling and implement security controls that enable our engineering teams to ship safely on cloud platforms. You'll implement security controls for our multi-cloud environments, working closely with staff engineers on architecture decisions while securing production workloads across Azure and AWS. Strong Azure security expertise is highly valued; deep AWS knowledge will be increasingly critical as our cloud footprint evolves. Working as part of the Platform Security team, you'll have impact within the security team and partner engineering teams. This is a hands-on role where you'll write production code daily, owning security projects within the cloud domain. You'll implement cloud security solutions and build tooling to enforce security controls. You'll solve complex security problems, taking ownership of projects from design through implementation with guidance on architecture and strategic direction. You'll be working in an AI-native environment where leveraging AI to accelerate your impact is expected. This position requires the ability to obtain and maintain a security clearance.
