  • Extend our detection and response capabilities – building scalable solutions to identify malicious activity, triage alerts, and investigate and remediate incidents
  • Build deep functional partnerships with Wiz's engineering and operations teams – helping them deliver secure-by-design solutions

  • Strong AWS cloud security experience (we will also consider equivalent experience in Azure and GCP with some level of AWS experience)
  • Cloud native Kubernetes services (EKS/GKE/AKS) and strong container security principles
  • Deep understanding of securing IAM and cloud identities at scale
  • Proven ability to lead technical security reviews of products and architectures, conduct threat modeling exercises, and translate findings into actionable security controls
  • Practical understanding of web application security concepts (such as OWASP Top-10 and similar)
  • Hands-on experience with IAC and related tools (Terraform, CloudFormation, Helm, Pulumi)
  • Experience with automation and tooling development in one or more: Python, Go, Shell, HCL, Rego

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

  • Bachelor's degree in computer science or a related field and / or candidates with equivalent job experience in lieu of a degree
  • Experience working with remote, globally distributed teams 
  • Experience working in organizations that develop software and/or operate managed infrastructure and technology services for their own customers 
  • Experience with CNAPP, CSPM, or CIEM solutions
