## About the role

Millions of consumersclose on homes through Qualia every year, which means our cloud carries wire instructions, identity documents, and nonpublic financial data at scale. Cloud Security owns the security of the infrastructure that platform runs on: our AWS accounts and organization, Kubernetes clusters, identity and access paths into production, the CI/CD systems that deploy to it, and the detection and response signal that tells us when something is wrong. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- Lead and grow the team. Hire, coach, and set goals for Cloud Security engineers, own delivery against the roadmap
- Own cloud security architecture. Set standards for AWS account structure, network segmentation, encryption, and workload isolation across our Kubernetes clusters
- Run identity and access for production. Drive least privilege across human and machine identities: SSO into AWS, role design, just-in-time access, and secrets management
- Ship guardrails as code. Service control policies, admission control, policy-as-code checks in CI, and hardened Terraform modules that stop whole classes of misconfiguration
- Own posture management. Build our posture checks in-house, in Go and policy-as-code, across cloud resources and container images, turn findings into a prioritized, owned queue that burns down
- Build detection and response. Partner with SRE on cloud-native detection (CloudTrail, audit logs, runtime signal) and lead the cloud side of incident response
