Overview:

We are looking for a highly skilled Senior Cloud Security Architect with deep expertise in Wiz to support a complex cloud carve-out initiative. This hands-on contract role will focus on configuring the Wiz platform, building actionable reporting, and establishing cloud security best practices for a newly separated environment.
The ideal candidate brings a strong background in cloud security architecture, real-world experience deploying and tuning Wiz, and the ability to collaborate across security, engineering, and infrastructure teams during a time-sensitive migration.




Key Responsibilities:

  • Architect and implement Wiz platform configuration for a carved-out cloud environment (AWS, Azure, GCP)
  • Build custom reports and dashboards in Wiz for risk, compliance, and executive-level visibility
  • Align Wiz findings with organizational policies, controls, and remediation workflows
  • Tune alerting, risk prioritization, and security coverage across the cloud stack (VMs, containers, serverless)
  • Collaborate with DevOps, Cloud Engineering, and Security stakeholders to drive secure-by-design principles
  • Contribute to runbooks, documentation, and handoff materials for internal teams
  • Advise on integration of Wiz with third-party tools (e.g., Jira, SIEMs, ticketing systems)
  • Support compliance mapping (e.g., SOC 2, ISO 27001) using Wiz’s governance and risk insights




Requirements:

  • 7+ years in Cloud Security, with senior-level architecture experience
  • Minimum 1–2 years of hands-on experience with Wiz in an enterprise environment
  • Proven success working on IT carve-outs, M&A integrations, or infrastructure separation projects
  • Expertise with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP) and common cloud-native security controls
  • Strong experience in reporting, dashboarding, and data visualization inside Wiz
  • Deep understanding of cloud infrastructure, IAM, vulnerability management, and posture assessment
  • Familiarity with compliance frameworks (HIPAA, SOC 2, ISO, NIST, etc.)




Nice to Have:

  • Experience automating security controls (Terraform, scripting, etc.)
  • Familiarity with Wiz API, custom integrations, or programmatic reporting
  • Security certifications (e.g., CISSP, CCSP, Azure Security Engineer, AWS Security)




Why This Role Matters:

  • Drive security strategy during a critical carve-out with high business visibility
  • Lead efforts to mature cloud security posture from day one
  • Work with cutting-edge security tooling in a modern, fast-moving cloud environment
