• Design, implement, and continuously improve security controls in AWS, including IAM policies, VPC network segmentation, Security Groups, and secure service configuration (e.g., S3, RDS, Lambda).

• Own WAF management (Cloudflare WAF) — authoring rules, tuning managed rulesets, and monitoring attacks.

• Integrate automated security guardrails into CI/CD pipelines (Git Hub Actions) for IaC, container images, and serverless deployments.

• Implement and enforce Infrastructure‑as‑Code (IaC) security scanning using tools such as tfsec, Trivy, Checkov, or Terrascan, with gating for critical findings.

• Lead container and orchestration security for Docker and Kubernetes/EKS, including image scanning, admission controls, runtime monitoring (Falco), and benchmark enforcement (kube‑bench).

• Establish and operate secrets‑management best practices using tools like Hashi Corp Vault, AWS Secrets Manager, or SOPS, ensuring least‑privilege access.

• Deep knowledge of IAM policy design, role‑based access control, and least‑privilege enforcement.

• Proficiency with Terraform or Cloud Formation and experience implementing IaC security scans in CI/CD.

• Demonstrated experience managing WAF solutions and mitigating web‑layer attacks (OWASP Top 10, bot mitigation).

• Experience hardening container images and Kubernetes/EKS clusters, plus familiarity with container runtime security.

• Strong scripting skills in Python, Go, or similar for automation and tooling integration.

• Experience performing cloud security risk assessments and threat modeling for new services.
