► Provide guidance during cloud security incidents and contribute to incident response processes and root cause analysis.
► Collaborate with cloud architects and development teams to ensure secure-by-design patterns and reference architectures.
► Provide architectural security input on Azure services, identity models, network design, and application deployment patterns.
► Support the creation of reusable secure infrastructure templates (e.g., Pulumi, Terraform) and DevSecOps automation.
► Translate technical security risks into clear business impacts for stakeholders.
► Willingness to grow into taking care of overarching Security Management topics. Support audits, compliance initiatives, and risk assessments. Serve as a key liaison between engineering teams, security consultants, and business stakeholders.
