Descripción de la vacante

Muon Space is seeking a Senior Security Engineer to advance our security posture across endpoints, networks, and multi-cloud environments in the San Jose area. You will own cloud security posture management, secure cloud architecture, and workload protection while contributing to NIST/CMMC compliance.

The role is hybrid with on-site presence in San Jose, CA three days a week or fully remote from an approved U.S. location.

Formación

• 5+ years of experience in information security or security engineering roles.
• Deep, hands-on cloud security experience across AWS and at least one of GCP or Azure (IAM, VPC/networking, security groups, CloudTrail, GuardDuty, Config, and KMS).
• Experience with cloud security posture management (CSPM) tooling and securing infrastructure-as-code and CI/CD pipelines.
• Familiarity with container and workload security (Kubernetes, serverless, image scanning).
• Experience with SIEM platforms (Splunk, Sentinel, Elastic, or similar) for log analysis and detection engineering.
• Familiarity with compliance frameworks such as NIST 800-171, CMMC, SOC 2, or ISO 27001
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills — able to convey risk and technical findings to both engineers and leadership.

Responsabilidades

• Drive cloud security posture management (CSPM) across AWS, GCP, and Azure environments, including IAM policies, S3/bucket security, security group and network reviews, and CloudTrail/GuardDuty/Config monitoring.
• Architect secure, scalable cloud environments — landing zones, account and organization structure, network segmentation, encryption, and key management.
• Secure cloud workloads and containers, including Kubernetes/EKS, serverless functions, and container image scanning.
• Embed security into infrastructure-as-code and CI/CD pipelines (Terraform, CloudFormation) with automated policy and misconfiguration checks.
• Manage cloud identity and access — least-privilege roles, federation, and secrets management across cloud platforms.
• Support CMMC Level 2 and NIST SP 800-171 compliance — maintain SSP control narratives, collect evidence, and prepare for assessments.
• Contribute to security policy development and keep documentation current as the environment evolves.
