Security Architecture

Terraform Software

Cloud Security Engineer

12-Month Day Rate Contract (view to extend or transition to permanent)

Join a well-established, large Australian proffessional services organisation undergoing a major cloud-first transformation. As they scale their Azure footprint and roll out AI capability across the business, they're bringing in a Cloud Security Engineer to work alongside a small but highly capable in-house Cyber team and the broader Enterprise Architecture function.

This is a hands-on, advisory role, you'll be providing security assurance and peer review, helping the in-house Architecture team embed best practice as they build.

What you'll be doing

Partnering closely with the in-house Architecture team to provide cloud security architecture expertise, assurance, and peer review across designs before they go live

Auditing infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, ARM/Bicep) against security baselines and contributing to shared template libraries

Supporting and helping build out Palo Alto Prisma Access and SASE capability, recently implemented as part of a broader network security project

Managing and optimising Cloudflare edge security services — WAF, DDoS protection, DNS security, and Zero Trust access

Providing security assurance over AI workloads built in Azure AI Foundry, including model hosting, data pipelines, and mitigating AI-specific risks (prompt injection, data exfiltration, unauthorised model access)





Championing DevSecOps and shift-left security practices across engineering teams

Contributing to cloud and AI risk assessments aligned to frameworks like NIST CSF, Essential 8, and NIST AI RMF

What you'll bring

Solid hands-on experience in cloud security engineering/architecture, ideally in Microsoft Azure

Practical Terraform (or ARM/Bicep) experience and a solid grasp of CI/CD pipeline security

Experience with Palo Alto Prisma Access, Prisma Cloud, or SASE platforms

Experience with Cloudflare security services (WAF, DDoS, DNS security, Zero Trust)

Exposure to securing AI/ML workloads — Azure AI Foundry, Azure OpenAI, or similar — is highly regarded

Solid understanding of DevSecOps principles and security-as-code

Familiarity with frameworks such as NIST CSF, CIS Benchmarks, and Essential 8

Relevant certifications (AZ-500, SC-100, CCSP) highly regarded

This is a great opportunity for a cloud security professional who wants to help shape architecture and AI security practice inside a large, complex enterprise — with genuine potential to extend or convert to a permanent role.
