The Team:

The cloud offering from Neo4j is called Aura and we are now looking to expand our Aura team with more skilled persons.

What you will do:

• Collaborate with other teams to define and implement Cloud/K8s native policies and procedures (i.e. Admission Controllers, OPA, Pod Security Standards).
• Develop cloud-native controls in Azure, AWS and/or GCP to enforce the security baseline at scale, integrating with open-source and vendor tools as needed.
• Enhance product security along the software development lifecycle by creating "paved roads" and defining additional security and software excellence requirements for containerised services running on multiple managed Kubernetes clusters.
• Act as a subject matter expert for the Platform and Engineering teams by providing guidance on cloud and k8s services, secure infrastructure-as-code, modern secure AuthZ/AuthN techniques and secrets management solutions.
• Participate in conducting security assessments, audits and architecture reviews in order to introduce new cloud controls in the platform and make recommendations to improve the overall security posture.
• Support the incident detection and response process by maintaining cloud monitoring and alerting tooling and developing scripts needed for troubleshooting and resolution of incidents and security issues.
• Support compliance initiatives and certifications for cloud environments.

The ideal candidate would have experience in:

• Experience with Containers, Kubernetes, Infrastructure-as-Code and programming languages like Go and/or Python.
• An active interest and background in Cloud, Infrastructure and Network security.
• Proven experience in a security engineering role with hands-on technical involvement, and exposure to decision making processes.
