New Relic
About this role
New Relic builds observability software, and this role is on its Infrastructure Assurance team, responsible for securing the company's own global infrastructure across servers, networks, workstations and cloud. The requirement split is worth reading closely, because it is more accessible than the title suggests: four years of cloud or infrastructure engineering plus two years of infrastructure security. In other words they will take a cloud engineer who has moved into security rather than demanding a decade of pure security work. The environment is multi account AWS with Kubernetes, and the compliance surface named is SOC 2, FedRAMP, CIS Critical 18 and PCI DSS. You would act as one of the senior technical figures for the Asia Pacific Japan region. Hyderabad.
Who this is for
What the posting asks for, listed as must haves:
- Bachelor's degree in computer science or equivalent practical education and experience.
- 4+ years of cloud or infrastructure engineering experience.
- 2+ years of infrastructure security experience.
- 2+ years working with modern container technologies. Kubernetes is described as a bonus.
- Experience securing infrastructure and services in a multi account AWS environment.
- Strong understanding of identity and access management: roles, policies and service control policies.
- Experience performing security reviews and risk assessments in SaaS and cloud environments.
- Understanding of modern DevOps engineering and containerisation.
- Working understanding of common network security controls, authentication and security protocols.
- Working understanding of SOC 2, FedRAMP, CIS Critical 18 and PCI DSS frameworks.
- Ability to communicate with people of varying technical depth, work autonomously and navigate ambiguity.
Day to day: operating as one of the senior technical figures for the Infrastructure Assurance team and partner teams across the Asia Pacific Japan region; educating product and platform engineers on security practice for multi cloud, Kubernetes and internal services; providing security design guidance and running security reviews for a secure by design model; mentoring junior team members; and working with IT, compliance, legal and privacy teams.
Location and office reality: Hyderabad. No office day policy is published on this posting.
Honest fit guidance: the two year security requirement inside a four year overall bar is the detail that makes this reachable. If you are a cloud or DevOps engineer who has been doing security work for two years, you meet this as written, and that is a more open door than most senior security postings offer.
