Monitoring: Implement and improve security monitoring, logging, alerting, and detection capabilities using AWS-native and third-party tooling, including CloudTrail, GuardDuty, Security Hub, CloudWatch, SIEM platforms, or similar technologies.</li> <li> Software Supply Chain Security: Improve software supply chain integrity through dependency controls, artifact signing, provenance, trusted build pipelines, image registries, SBOM practices, and secure release processes.</li> <li> Secrets &amp; Key Management: Establish secure patterns for credentials, API keys, certificates, encryption keys, and secrets using services such as AWS KMS, Secrets Manager, Parameter Store, and related tooling.</li> <li> Security Incident Response: Support investigation and response for cloud and application security incidents, including containment, root-cause analysis, evidence collection, remediation, and post-incident corrective actions.</li> <li> Compliance &amp; Control Automation: Translate security and compliance requirements into technical controls and automated evidence collection for frameworks such as SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, or related standards.</li> <li> Security Architecture &amp; Reviews: Perform security reviews for infrastructure changes, new services, deployment patterns, and application architectures; identify risk and recommend practical mitigations.</li> <li> Developer Enablement: Create reusable security patterns, documentation, guardrails, and tooling that make the secure implementation the easiest implementation for engineering teams.</li> <li> Continuous Improvement: Track security posture, recurring findings, control effectiveness, and operational trends to identify opportunities for better automation, prevention, and risk reduction</li></ul> <h2>Qualifications</h2>Bring your passion, here's what’s needed:<ul> <li> Experience: 3+ years of experience in DevSecOps, cloud security, DevOps, platform engineering, Site Reliability Engineering, or a related discipline, including significant responsibility for production cloud environments.</li> <li> AWS: Strong hands-on experience securing AWS services and architectures, including IAM, Organizations, VPC, EC2, S3, RDS, EKS, Lambda, Route 53, CloudTrail, KMS, GuardDuty, Security Hub, and related services.</li> <li> Terraform: Advanced proficiency with Terraform, including secure reusable modules, state management, policy enforcement, code review, drift management, and infrastructure lifecycle controls.</li> <li> Kubernetes: Strong understanding of Kubernetes and EKS security, including RBAC, pod security, admission controls, secrets, network policies, workload identity, image security, and cluster hardening.</li> <li> Security Engineering: Strong knowledge of cloud security principles, least privilege, defense in depth, encryption, network segmentation, secrets management, vulnerability management, threat modeling, and secure configuration.</li> <li> Programming &amp; Automation: Proficiency in Python, Bash, Go, or another general-purpose language used to build security automation and operational tooling.</li> <li> CI/CD Security: Experience integrating security controls into delivery pipelines using platforms such as GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab CI, Argo CD, or similar tooling.</li> <li> Security Tooling: Experience with tools for SAST, SCA, container scanning, IaC scanning, secrets detection, CSPM, SIEM, or cloud-native security monitoring.</li> <li> Linux &amp; Containers: Strong Linux, Docker, and container fundamentals with the ability to troubleshoot security and configuration issues across hosts and workloads.</li> <li> Incident Response: Experience investigating security events or production incidents and contributing to containment, root-cause analysis, remediation, and follow-up actions.</li> <li> Compliance: Working knowledge of security control frameworks and audit expectations, including evidence collection, access reviews, logging, change controls, and technical control validation.</li> <li> Communication: Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain security risk and recommended controls to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.</li></ul>Preferred Qualifications <ul> <li>AWS security-focused certifications such as AWS Certified Security - Specialty, AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional, or AWS Certified DevOps Engineer - Professional.</li> <li>Experience with policy-as-code tools such as Open Policy Agent (OPA), Conftest, Sentinel, Kyverno, or Gatekeeper.</li> <li>Experience with CSPM/CNAPP platforms, vulnerability scanners, SIEM platforms, or cloud security posture management tooling.</li> <li>Familiarity with supply chain security technologies and standards such as SBOMs, SLSA, artifact signing, provenance, and Sigstore/cosign.</li> <li>Experience with GitOps practices and tools such as Argo CD or Flux.</li> <li>Knowledge of security frameworks and standards such as CIS Benchmarks, NIST CSF, NIST 800-53, SOC 2, ISO 27001, or PCI DSS.</li></ul>Be a part of an innovative team shaping the grid of the future through advanced energy intelligence.  For more than half a century, Electric Power Engineers (EPE) has partnered with power and energy clients across the globe, providing consulting expertise and energy intelligence software solutions for complex engineering and grid modeling challenges.
