• Partner with DevOps teams to secure Kubernetes clusters, with a strong focus on Rancher
• Improve security visibility through monitoring, logging, and reporting
• Automate security controls and validations using Infrastructure as Code and scripting
• Help document security standards, patterns, and operational runbooks

• Solid understanding of IAM, network security, and secrets management
• 3+ years of experience working with and securing Kubernetes clusters
• Experience using Rancher for Kubernetes cluster management
• Experience using Infrastructure as Code tools such as Terraform / OpenTofu or CloudFormation
