About the role

Senior Security Engineer📍 Charlotte, NC (Onsite) | Full-TimeOwn Security for a Platform That Runs Mission-Critical Operations Our client, a leading enterprise technology company is hiring a Senior Security Engineer to take ownership of security across their cloud infrastructure and application platform. This is a hands-on role for someone who wants real mandate to find problems — and fix them.
What You'll Do:
  • Own vulnerability management across Azure, AKS, on-prem systems, and client-facing applications — prioritizing by real risk, not CVE counts
  • Lead and coordinate penetration testing engagements, including client-facing UAT/production tests; manage testers and vendors through to closure
  • Harden identity infrastructure (Entra ID, Auth0) — drive least-privilege access and reduce standing privileged access exposure
  • Secure the Kubernetes (AKS) platform and CI/CD pipelines — container images, cluster config, secrets, network policy
  • Build security runbooks and incident response procedures; participate in on-call and lead response during active incidents
  • Own compliance and audit readiness (SOC 2, GDPR) end-to-end, including auditor coordination and evidence management
  • Lead RCAs and remediation plans for client-impacting incidents
  • Partner with DevOps/Engineering to embed security into delivery, not gate itMust-Have Qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree or 8–10+ years of IT technical experience
  • 8+ years in security analysis, application security, or cloud security, including 2+ years in a senior/lead capacity
  • Strong hands-on Azure security experience (Defender for Cloud, Entra ID, network security, key management)
  • Working knowledge of Kubernetes/container security (AKS preferred)
  • Solid IAM background: RBAC, privileged access, OAuth/OIDC/SSO
  • Experience owning SOC 2 and GDPR compliance programs
  • Scripting ability (PowerShell, Python)
  • Incident response experience, including on-call rotation
  • Strong written communication skills — able to turn findings into decisions
Nice to Have:
  • CISSP, OSCP, GCIH, or Azure Security Engineer Associate certification
  • Experience with EU data residency and multi-region deployment security
Why ApplyThis role offers real ownership — visible impact, active roadmap, and the authority to drive remediation, not just report findings. Competitive compensation, full benefits, and strong growth trajectory.👉 Ready to own security for a platform that matters? Apply now.
