  • Freedom to introduce tooling, automation, and best practices

  • Build automation and incident response playbooks for common attack scenarios
  • Advise engineering teams on secure architecture and system design
  • Ensure compliance with ISO 27001, SOC 2, GDPR, and DORA

  • Strong hands-on expertise in GCP security tooling and architecture
  • SIEM/SOAR experience: you know how to build detections, not just consume alerts
  • Solid grasp of threat detection, vulnerability management, and incident response
  • Comfortable with IaC and containerized environments (Terraform, Kubernetes)
  • Fluent in compliance frameworks ISO 27001, SOC 2, GDPR, DORA
  • Strong communicator: you can brief a CISO and pair with a developer in the same afternoon
