Senior Security Engineer | Cloud Security

Tekion builds cloud software for car dealerships and manufacturers, connecting retailers, OEMs and customers on one platform. This is a cloud security engineering role protecting that SaaS estate. The work splits three ways: posture management across AWS, Azure and GCP using tooling such as Wiz and Valence, detection and response for cloud risks and runtime threats alongside the SOC, and pushing security left into CI/CD with SAST, DAST, dependency and secrets scanning plus threat modelling at design time. It is hands on engineering rather than policy work, and it assumes you are comfortable owning both the preventive and the detective side. Good fit for a security engineer with five or more years who wants multi cloud breadth.

Stated requirement is 5+ years, read from the opening line of the job description rather than inferred from the title. The role sits in Tekion's Security Engineering team and covers three distinct areas. Cloud security posture management: implementing and maintaining security configuration across AWS, Azure and GCP, using commercial tooling (Wiz and Valence are named) alongside native cloud services. Threat detection and response: building and running detection for toxic cloud risk combinations, public exposure and runtime threats, then working with the SOC and incident response teams to triage and remediate what fires. Secure SDLC: embedding security into CI/CD pipelines through static and dynamic analysis, dependency scanning and secrets detection, and supporting threat modelling and vulnerability assessment early, at design and release stages rather than after the fact. Location is Bangalore HQ, so treat it as an on site or hybrid Bangalore role. One operational note taken from the posting itself: it carries a line stating that from 4 August 2026 current Tekion employees should apply through the internal job board in Ashby, which confirms the requisition is live and externally open. Worth knowing about the employer: Tekion moved its entire job board from Greenhouse to Ashby in early August 2026, so any Tekion link you saved before then is probably dead even though the role may still be open. Good fit if you want multi cloud security engineering with genuine detection work attached, rather than a pure compliance or GRC seat.
