[Hiring] Cloud Security Engineer @TherapyNotes.com

Role Description

TherapyNotes is seeking an experienced, hands-on Cloud Security Engineer to secure our cloud infrastructure, containerized workloads, and infrastructure-as-code pipelines. The right candidate brings deep expertise in cloud security posture management, Kubernetes and container security, and Zero Trust network access, and is comfortable working in a healthcare-regulated environment (HIPAA, HITRUST, HITECH). This role also contributes to broader security engineering efforts — vulnerability management, incident response, and identity and access security — as part of a small, collaborative security team.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in information security, computer science, or related field preferred; equivalent experience considered.
• 5+ years of experience in cloud security engineering or related role.
• Deep, hands-on experience securing cloud infrastructure and cloud-based applications (Azure preferred, AWS a plus).
• Hands-on network security experience and a strong understanding of network architecture, connectivity, segmentation, and firewall controls.
• Experience securing containerized workloads and Kubernetes environments (e.g., AKS) — network policy, workload identity, runtime protection.
• Experience with cloud security posture management (CSPM) and remediating misconfigurations across cloud environments.
• Experience securing IaC orchestration platforms — access control, secrets management, and deployment approval workflows (e.g., Terraform, OpenTofu).
• Experience with Microsoft Entra ID, including Conditional Access, Entitlement Management, and just-in-time (JIT) privileged access models.
• Experience with Zero Trust / SASE tooling (e.g., Cloudflare Zero Trust, WAF, Gateway, or equivalent).
• Knowledge of security frameworks (NIST, ISO 27001, CIS) and compliance frameworks (HITRUST, PCI DSS).
• Proven ability to conduct security assessments, vulnerability management, and incident response.
• Strong understanding of OS platforms (Windows, Linux) and endpoint security.
• Industry certifications such as CISSP, SSCP, Security+, or a cloud security certification (Azure/AWS) preferred.

Requirements

• Manage and secure cloud infrastructure and cloud-based applications, with a focus on Azure.
• Secure containerized workloads and Kubernetes environments (e.g., AKS) — network policy, workload identity, runtime protection, and container image scanning.
• Own and mature cloud security posture management (CSPM) — continuously identify and remediate misconfigurations across cloud environments.
• Secure infrastructure-as-code orchestration platforms — access control, secrets management, and deployment approval workflows for Terraform/OpenTofu pipelines.
• Manage and secure identities in Microsoft Entra ID through Conditional Access, Entitlement Management, and just-in-time (JIT) privileged access models.
• Review network diagrams and proposed connectivity changes, provide security input on segmentation and sensitive data flows, and work with IT and SRE teams to address identified concerns.
• Administer Zero Trust network access and edge security tooling to secure access to corporate and cloud resources.
• Hands-on management of broader security solutions across the organization: SIEM, DLP, E/XDR, vulnerability management.
• Monitor security alerts, respond to and escalate incidents, and participate in the incident response on-call rotation.
• Conduct threat analysis, vulnerability assessments, and risk evaluations; document findings, manage mitigation, and report status to leadership.
• Develop queries, scripts, integrations, and automated workflows that improve cloud security operations.
• Collaborate with development teams to ensure security is continuously integrated into the SDLC and CI/CD pipeline.
• Conduct periodic cloud configuration and access reviews to ensure compliance with security standards.
• Participate in audits and assessments, supporting governance, risk management, and compliance (GRC) efforts.
