Senior Cloud Security Engineer (Kubernetes) in London

You will build and run defensive security controls for highly-available multi-cloud payment systems running the latest technology. You understand current threats, exploitation paths and risk tradeoffs in order to advise engineering teams on beneficial security features as well as prioritise management of defensive controls.

WE’RE LOOKING FOR

• Essential

• You live on the linux command line.
• Your current research and experience back up your opinionated views on security practices and tradeoffs, which you love to openly debate and willingly share.
• You’re sought after for your Kubernetes security expertise and have developed complex heavily customised multi-cluster environments.
• Your security expertise extends to at least one public cloud, including essential security features and long-term security hardening practices.
• You appreciate building systems with good engineering practices and may have a background in software engineering at scale.
• You’re open to being a part of our on-call rota, ready to respond if we have a severe, platform-impacting security tooling failure or need second-line security incident response assistance.

• You have an interest in offensive security, potentially including participation in CTFs and past experience as a red team operator or pen tester.
• You’ve developed security configurations in multiple public and private clouds.
• You’re a confident presenter and have accelerated appreciation of security across engineering teams.
• You regularly support building and analysis of threat models using a well-defined process.
• You have experience securing data centers and networking devices.
• You’re terrified by supply chain and CI/CD security, but have good patterns for reducing the risks.
• Your engineering experiences match Form3’s tech stack – including Golang and Terraform.
