Job Summary: We are seeking an experienced Oracle Cloud Security Engineer responsible for designing, implementing, and operating security controls across Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), Oracle Cloud Applications, and hybrid Oracle environments. In this role you will define security architecture, harden cloud workloads, manage identity and access, lead vulnerability and compliance programs, and respond to security incidents. The ideal candidate will combine deep technical expertise in OCI security services with strong experience in cloud-native security frameworks, regulatory compliance, and threat detection. In this role you will work closely with cross-functional partners — product, design, engineering, operations, and business stakeholders — to translate ambiguous requirements into well-engineered solutions, and will be expected to raise the bar through code review, design review, and mentorship of more junior engineers. The successful candidate brings strong engineering discipline, a clear communication style, and a track record of shipping meaningful work that holds up well in production. Key Responsibilities Design and implement enterprise security architectures for OCI tenancies, including landing-zone guardrails, security zones, and compartment policies. Configure and operate OCI Identity Domains, federation with corporate IdPs, and strong RBAC strategies across the tenancy. Implement strong key management and secrets handling using OCI Vault, including key rotation and HSM integration where appropriate. Harden OCI compute, networking, and database workloads using CIS benchmarks, OCI Security Zones, and internal security standards. Operate OCI Cloud Guard for continuous detection and response, tuning detectors and remediating findings. Configure and operate OCI Logging, OCI Audit, and integration with SIEM platforms for centralized monitoring and forensics. Implement data security controls using OCI Data Safe, including data masking, sensitive data discovery, and privileged user analysis. Lead vulnerability management programs, including image scanning, patching, and remediation tracking. Drive compliance with regulatory frameworks such as PCI-DSS, HIPAA, SOC 2, ISO 27001, or FedRAMP. Conduct threat modeling and architecture reviews for new OCI workloads. Lead security incident response on OCI, including containment, investigation, and post-incident review. Develop security automation tooling using Python, Terraform, and OCI CLI/SDK. Maintain comprehensive, current technical documentation — including architecture diagrams, design decisions, configuration references, runbooks, and operational procedures — so that the system remains supportable, auditable, and easy to onboard new engineers onto over time. Provide mentorship and security guidance across application and infrastructure teams. Required Qualifications Bachelor’s degree in Cybersecurity, Computer Science, Engineering, or a related discipline. Five or more years of cloud security experience, with strong hands-on time on OCI. Deep experience with OCI Identity, IAM policies, and identity federation. Hands-on experience with OCI Cloud Guard, Security Zones, Vault, and Data Safe. Solid understanding of cloud-native security frameworks and CIS benchmarks. Experience with vulnerability management and patching tooling. Working knowledge of regulatory frameworks (PCI-DSS, HIPAA, SOC 2, ISO 27001). Strong scripting skills (Python, Bash) and Terraform. Experience integrating cloud workloads with SIEM platforms. Excellent troubleshooting, communication, and documentation skills. Preferred Qualifications Oracle Cloud Security Professional certification. CISSP, CCSP, or equivalent industry security certifications. Experience with multi-cloud security architectures. Familiarity with SOAR platforms and automated incident response. Exposure to zero-trust architecture patterns. How to Apply Would you like to know more about this opportunity?
