Description

You will design and build security guardrails for Okta's multi-cloud environment, translating complex compliance standards into code-driven policies. You'll architect cloud security controls, IAM frameworks, and network security standards, while mentoring engineers and influencing leadership on critical security decisions.

Requirements

  • 8+ years in information security within cloud-native environments, Kubernetes (EKS, AKS), and cloud security.
  • Deep understanding of secure networking (VPC peering, VPN, edge protection) and PKI.
  • Strong background in building automated policy-as-code controls within Terraform workflows.
  • Hands-on experience identifying attack vectors and conducting risk assessments for distributed systems.
  • Experience with security platforms for cloud permissions analysis and applying AI to security tasks.

Responsibilities

  • Design organization-wide cloud security controls (SCPs, Azure Policy) to protect multi-cloud environments with minimal developer friction.
  • Architect IAM templates and permission boundaries enforcing least privilege for services and humans.
  • Define security standards for VPC architecture, edge networking, and cross-account connectivity.
  • Lead platform security reviews for new features and high-impact services.
  • Design systems to validate security posture and enforce policies with real-time feedback.
