Description For Platform Engineer with Security Focus

Mondoo is revolutionizing the cybersecurity landscape by developing innovative solutions that protect companies and their users from global cyber threats. As a Platform Engineer with a security focus, you'll be at the forefront of building and maintaining the Mondoo Platform, including critical components like the policy engine, resources, scale, and multi-region functionality.

In this role, you'll have the opportunity to work with cutting-edge technologies and gain hands-on experience with "policy as code" frameworks. You'll be responsible for building and managing cloud infrastructure using IaC tools, automating system configurations, and ensuring seamless integration with CI/CD pipelines. Your work will directly impact teams' ability to assess, scope, prioritize, triage, and remediate security findings.

The ideal candidate should have strong experience with Infrastructure as Code, configuration management tools, and cloud platforms. You'll need proficiency in container technologies, scripting languages, and networking basics. While security expertise is valuable, we're also looking for candidates willing to grow their security knowledge and contribute to our dynamic team.

This position offers the chance to work with modern security tools and frameworks, including policy as code implementations like Open Policy Agent and HashiCorp Sentinel. You'll be part of implementing automated security controls across various environments, from Kubernetes clusters to major cloud platforms.

Working at Mondoo means joining a team that values innovation, collaboration, and continuous learning. We believe in creating solutions with great user experience and visual design, making it easier for our clients to take action against potential security threats. If you're passionate about cloud security, automation, and working with a collaborative team to build cutting-edge security solutions, this role offers an excellent opportunity to make a significant impact in the cybersecurity space.
