[Hiring] Cloud Security Analyst @Third-Party Job Posts

Role Description

As a Cloud Security Analyst on our Security team, you will help deliver an exceptional and secure product experience to our customers all around the world. You will play a crucial role in ensuring the security and compliance of our systems, customers, and data. Working on security at Cloudbeds requires an adaptable cross-functional mindset. You should be comfortable talking to individuals at every level and space across the organization, from Engineering to Sales, and even Executives.

Our Security strategy is to enable the delivery of trusted, scalable, and reliable products leveraging the best of modern technologies, tools, and standards. For the Cloud Security Analyst role, we are looking for someone who can communicate best practices across both a technology and organizational process space. Our best fit team members will have worked with a broad range of compliance regulation standards, application development best practices, and Security frameworks.

• Participate in implementation and ongoing monitoring of security tooling at all edges of the security landscape.
• Assist with Requests for Proposals from prospective customers.
• Daily monitoring of endpoint detection platforms.
• Conduct Pen-tests, application vulnerability discovery and remediation.
• Handle compliance requests and company-wide security training programs.
• Engage in more security owned initiatives.

Qualifications

• 5 years of practical experience in cloud or application security.
• Hands-on experience securing application stacks deployed in the cloud — both the code and the infrastructure behind it.
• Strong experience with AWS security services and the ability to design and implement cloud-native controls.
• Solid software development fundamentals: comfortable reading code, working in a repository, and reasoning about application vulnerabilities (e.g., OWASP Top 10).
• Practical experience integrating security into CI/CD pipelines and DevOps workflows (SAST, DAST, SCA, secrets, and IaC scanning).
• Experience with container and Kubernetes security (image scanning, runtime protection, policy enforcement).
• Working knowledge of IAM concepts and least-privilege design across cloud environments.
• Strong technical documentation skills — able to write clear standards, runbooks, and policies that engineers will actually use.
• Strong communication, problem-solving, and diplomacy skills.
• Familiarity with compliance standards relevant to the cloud (PCI DSS, GDPR, SOC 2, etc.).
• Understanding and evaluating short and long term risk vs implementation speed when selecting tooling.
• Ability to wield security knowledge to resolve disputes rationally without hierarchical authority.
• A Bachelor's Degree in a relevant field.

Requirements

• Secure application stacks running in the cloud across their full lifecycle — from the codebase through the underlying infrastructure.
• Embed security into CI/CD pipelines, partnering with DevOps and Engineering to shift security left (SAST, DAST, dependency/SCA, secrets, and IaC scanning).
• Architect, implement, and maintain cloud-native security controls, configurations, and policies (network, encryption, logging).
• Manage Identity and Access Management (IAM) policies, enforcing least privilege across cloud accounts.
• Implement and manage container and Kubernetes security tooling (image scanning, runtime policies, admission controls).
• Monitor cloud infrastructure for threats and anomalies (e.g., AWS GuardDuty) and triage alerts across platforms.
• Conduct cloud vulnerability assessments and drive remediation alongside engineering teams.
• Oversee application security operations, including code analysis tooling and remediation workflows.
• Support incident response and forensics in cloud environments, including scenario testing and runbook updates.
• Author and maintain clear, thorough security documentation, standards, and runbooks.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams and multi-level stakeholders to drive security initiatives company-wide.
• Collaborate on audits, compliance initiatives (PCI Level 1), and third-party security questionnaires.

Benefits

• Remote First, Remote Always.
• PTO in accordance with local labor requirements.
• Monthly Wellness Fridays - enjoy an extra long weekend every month.
• Full Paid Parental Leave.
• Home office stipend based on country of residency.
• Professional development courses in Cloudbeds University.
• Access to professional development, including manager training, upskilling, and knowledge transfer.
