Mondoo is creating a new way to help companies keep their users and data safe from hackers around the world.
The Platform Engineer will have a direct impact on the Mondoo Platform, including the policy engine, resources, scale, and multi-region functionality.
This role involves helping teams assess, scope, prioritize, triage, and remediate security findings.
The position offers the opportunity to work with cutting-edge technologies and gain hands-on experience in "policy as code" frameworks.
Key responsibilities include building, managing, and optimizing cloud infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools like Terraform and CloudFormation.
The engineer will automate system configurations using tools like Ansible, Puppet, or Chef.
Collaboration with teams is essential to ensure seamless integration of infrastructure with CI/CD pipelines.
The role includes gaining experience with policy as code frameworks such as Open Policy Agent and HashiCorp Sentinel.
The engineer will assist in translating high-level security requirements into practical policy as code implementations within cloud and on-premises environments.
Support for the implementation and scaling of automated security controls in Kubernetes, cloud environments (AWS, Azure, GCP), and operating systems is required.
Staying updated on infrastructure management and automation trends is crucial for ensuring a robust and scalable system foundation.

Requirements:

Strong hands-on experience with IaC tools like Terraform or CloudFormation is required.

Strong problem-solving and analytical skills are essential for this role.
A willingness to learn and grow into a role focused on security policies and automation is expected.
Excellent communication skills with the ability to work effectively in a collaborative team environment are required.

The position offers the opportunity to enhance cloud security through code.
Engineers will implement scalable and automated security policies across cloud platforms.
Participation in collaborative security design processes is encouraged.
The role allows for staying at the forefront of cloud security best practices.
Candidates are encouraged to showcase their experience through GitHub/GitLab repositories or a portfolio of projects.
