About the role

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. Experience with FedRAMP or NIST SP 800-53 is preferred but not required; however, candidates must satisfy applicable U.S. regulatory requirements for work in FedRAMP environments. Python and Terraform will be used daily.

What You'll Do:

    • Improve cloud security posture through practical, scalable policy engineering.
    • 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.
    • Strengthen the organization’s ability to identify, understand, and remediate cloud security risk. 

What You Have:

    US Citizenship is Required
     
    • Cloud security engineering: At least five years of hands-on experience. 
    • Wiz or equivalent CNAPP experience: Production administration, custom rules or Cloud Configuration Rules, policies, and integrations. Experience with Prisma Cloud, Orca, Microsoft Defender for Cloud, or Lacework is acceptable when paired with a demonstrated ability to ramp quickly on Wiz.
    • Python: Proficiency in scripting, automation, and API integrations, including the Wiz GraphQL API, boto3, or similar tools.
    • Multi-cloud expertise: Deep AWS experience plus strong experience with either Azure or GCP, along with working knowledge of all three platforms.
    • Terraform/HCL: Experience developing reusable, secure-by-default modules. 
    • Policy as code: Experience with OPA/Rego or an equivalent framework; Wiz custom rules use Rego. 
    • Finding triage: Ability to assess exploitability and blast radius, prioritize risk, and tune false positives. Preferred Qualifications
    • Experience with NIST SP 800-53, FedRAMP, GovCloud, or Impact Level environments, including mapping controls to technical guardrails.
    • Experience with Kubernetes manifests and container security.
    • Experience integrating security controls into CI/CD platforms such as GitHub Actions, GitLab, or Jenkins. 
    • Experience supporting audits and continuous monitoring (ConMon). 
    • Experience mentoring engineers and leading technical discussions.
    • Relevant security certifications, such as AWS Certified Security – Specialty, Microsoft Certified: Azure Security Engineer Associate (AZ-500), Professional Cloud Security Engineer, or CCSP.
