MCS Group is delighted to be partnering with a global technology-driven organisation to recruit multiple Cloud Product Security Engineers across mid to senior levels.

This is an opportunity to join a highly engineering-focused security team building enterprise-scale cloud security capabilities directly into modern platforms, infrastructure, and developer workflows.

If you're looking for a role where you can combine software engineering, cloud engineering, and security engineering, this is one of the strongest opportunities currently available in the local market.

The RoleMy client is looking for hands-on engineers who want to build and operate cloud-native security capabilities rather than work in traditional compliance or governance-heavy security environments.

You'll design, develop, and maintain security controls integrated directly into cloud platforms, CI/CD pipelines, enterprise services, and modern application environments. The team operates with a strong product engineering mindset, owning solutions end-to-end from design through deployment and operational support.

This role offers exposure to large-scale cloud environments, modern DevOps practices, and highly collaborative engineering teams.
