Cloud Security Engineer V

Hanger, Inc. is the world's premier provider of orthotic and prosthetic services and products, and they are seeking a Cloud Security Engineer V. This role is responsible for designing, implementing, and supporting Hanger's cloud environment while working collaboratively across various teams to enhance cloud security and facilitate migration from on-premise data centers to the cloud.

Responsibilities:

• Design, develop, and implement cloud security architecture solutions in Microsoft Azure aligned with business objectives, technical requirements, and industry frameworks (e.g., NIST CSF, CIS Benchmarks)
• Build and maintain security automation using Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools such as Terraform, Bicep, or ARM templates to ensure consistent, repeatable, and auditable deployments
• Architect and implement cloud-native security controls including network segmentation, micro-segmentation, encryption at rest and in transit, and secrets management
• Partner with IT Infrastructure and Enterprise Architecture teams on the migration strategy for moving on-premise data centers to Microsoft Azure, ensuring environments are secure, compliant, and resilient from day one
• Evaluate and remediate security risks across hybrid and cloud-native architectures throughout the migration lifecycle
• Implement and manage Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) and Cloud-Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP) tooling to maintain continuous visibility and compliance
• Collaborate with development and platform engineering teams to embed security into CI/CD pipelines, including static/dynamic code analysis (SAST/DAST), container image scanning, dependency vulnerability scanning, and automated policy enforcement
• Write production-quality code and automation scripts (Python, PowerShell, Bash, or Go) to build security tooling, automate remediation workflows, and integrate security controls across cloud services
• Champion secure software development practices across engineering teams, including threat modeling, secure code review, and security architecture assessments
• Support the adoption of policy-as-code and detection-as-code practices to enforce security standards programmatically
• Lead the design, development, and implementation of a cloud-based IAM strategy, including Zero Trust principles, least-privilege enforcement, conditional access, and identity governance
• Manage and optimize identity platforms (e.g., Microsoft Entra ID), role-based access control (RBAC), privileged access management (PAM), and authentication protocols (OAuth 2.0, SAML, OIDC)
• Implement and tune cloud-native monitoring, logging, and alerting using tools such as Microsoft Sentinel or equivalent SIEM/SOAR platforms
• Develop and enforce cloud security policies, standards, and procedures, and maintain audit readiness for applicable compliance frameworks
• Stay current with emerging technologies, threat vectors, and industry trends — including AI-driven threat detection, container and serverless security, and evolving regulatory requirements
• Act as a subject matter expert, providing technical guidance and mentorship to other engineers and cross-functional team members

Requirements:

• 8+ years of progressive experience in IT, cybersecurity, or cloud engineering, with at least 10 years of hands-on experience in Microsoft Azure security architecture and operations
• Demonstrated experience in software development or platform engineering, with working proficiency in at least two of the following: Python, PowerShell, Go, Bash, or TypeScript
• Proven track record of designing and implementing IaC-driven cloud environments using tools such as Terraform, Bicep, or ARM templates
• Hands-on experience integrating security tooling into CI/CD pipelines (e.g., GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, GitLab CI) and working within DevSecOps workflows
• Proven success leading or significantly contributing to data center-to-cloud migration initiatives
• Success with AI/ML workload security or securing generative AI deployments
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Information Technology, Cybersecurity, or a related field (or equivalent professional experience)
• At least one active cloud security certification is required: CCSP, CISSP, Microsoft Certified: Cybersecurity Architect Expert (SC-100), AZ-500 (Azure Security Engineer Associate), or equivalent
• Must have, or be eligible to obtain, a valid driver's license and driving record within the standards outlined within Hanger's Motor Vehicle Safety Policy and Procedures
• Deep expertise in cloud IAM, including Zero Trust architecture, identity governance, conditional access, privileged access management, and modern authentication protocols
• Strong knowledge of cloud-native security services and tooling: CSPM, CNAPP, SIEM/SOAR, endpoint protection, and threat intelligence platforms
• Strong understanding of container and orchestration security (Docker, Kubernetes), including image scanning, runtime protection, and workload isolation
• Familiarity with security frameworks and standards (NIST CSF, CIS Controls, ISO 27001, SOC 2) and their application in cloud environments
• Working knowledge of AI-driven security tools and an understanding of how machine learning is applied to threat detection, behavioral analytics, and automated incident response
• Expertise in data protection strategies including encryption, key management, data classification, and data loss prevention in cloud environments
• Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to evaluate complex systems and design pragmatic security solutions
• Flexible and collaborative with a proven ability to build consensus among cross-functional teams and influence technical decision-making
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to present complex security topics to both technical and non-technical audiences
• Demonstrated ability to mentor engineers and elevate security awareness across an organization
• Additional certifications in cloud engineering, DevSecOps, or AI security are a strong plus (e.g., AZ-305, Terraform Associate, Certified Kubernetes Security Specialist)
