Cloud Information Security Specialist

Job Description:

Cloud Information Security Specialist

Purpose Intro

Deutsche Bank has begun a major business and technology program to adopt public cloud services, including announcing a ten-year partnership with Google.

One critical success factor for this cloud adoption is to ensure that the Bank’s use of cloud services is secure. Therefore, the Bank’s security team, the Chief Security Office, has set up a Cloud Security Enablement program to embed security into its cloud environments, and integrate into its overall range of information security capabilities.

Within Cloud Security Enablement, one team is focused on Cloud Security Engineering. This team specializes in developing in-cloud security controls, using “infrastructure as code” and “policy as code” techniques, and a mix of cloud-native and third party solutions.

The majority of the team’s work is currently in Google Cloud Platform, with a small proportion in Microsoft Azure.

The team began in the UK and is now expanding in Bucharest. It reports functionally to the Cloud Security Engineering lead in the UK.

Role Intro

• Deliver and integrate in-cloud security features such as access management, logging, monitoring, and network security to support the Chief Security Office.
• Act as an internal security expert on native cloud security features, advising teams on security improvements and best practices.
• Collaborate with engineering teams to enhance cloud security tooling and, if required, embed as a security engineer within development teams to implement security controls directly.
