Senior Cloud Security Engineer (CNAPP/Wiz) - #2092897
Allegis Group
Date: 8 hours ago
City: Sheffield
Contract type: Contractor
Work schedule: Full day
Senior Cloud Security Engineer – Wiz / GCP
Birmingham / Sheffield / Leeds / Edinburgh (Hybrid)
The Role
We’re looking for a hands-on Cloud Security Engineer to lead the rollout and optimisation of Wiz (CNAPP) across a large-scale Google Cloud (GCP) environment.
This is not a passive monitoring role — you’ll be at the centre of improving cloud security posture, working directly with platform and engineering teams to identify real risks and drive meaningful fixes.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Deploying and scaling Wiz across GCP projects
- Identifying security risks (misconfigurations, IAM issues, vulnerabilities, exposures)
- Tuning and reducing alert noise to focus on what actually matters
- Working with engineers to turn findings into real remediation actions
- Embedding security into DevOps / CI-CD workflows
- Driving continuous improvements in cloud security posture
- Producing clear metrics and reporting on risk and progress
What We’re Looking For
- Hands-on Wiz experience (essential) – you’ve implemented or worked with it in production
- Strong GCP security knowledge (IAM, networking, logging, Kubernetes/GKE)
- Background in cloud security / DevSecOps / platform security
- Experience working with containers / Kubernetes
- Ability to assess risk properly – not just surface alerts
- Confident working with both engineering and security teams
The Right Person
- A senior engineer who has “been around the block”
- Someone who can challenge decisions and push for better solutions
- Comfortable in a fast-moving, complex environment
- Pragmatic, solutions-focused, and hands-on
Nice to Have
- Experience with tools like Prisma Cloud, Orca, CrowdStrike
- Multi-cloud exposure (Azure / AWS)
- GCP certifications
Why Apply?
- High-impact role improving security across a major cloud estate
- Work with modern cloud-native tech (GCP, Kubernetes, CNAPP)
- Opportunity to shape how Wiz is used and optimised
- Strong engineering culture with real ownership
