Cloud breaches rarely announce themselves.
They show up as a misconfigured bucket, a stale credential, a logging gap nobody noticed until it mattered.

The Cloud Security Engineer role sits right at that front line, protecting client infrastructure across multiple cloud environments while the business itself keeps expanding.
Here's what you'll be doing: Design and implement security controls across AWS, Azure and/or GCP environments Monitor cloud workloads for misconfigurations, vulnerabilities and anomalous activity Build and maintain Identity and Access Management policies, keeping least-privilege front of mind Respond to security incidents, investigate root cause, and close out remediation Automate security checks within CI/CD pipelines so issues get caught before deployment Work with engineering teams in Perth and remotely to embed security into cloud architecture decisions Here are the skills you'll need: Solid hands-on experience securing at least one major cloud platform (AWS, Azure or GCP) Working knowledge of IAM, network segmentation, encryption and logging/monitoring tools Familiarity with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, CloudFormation) and how security fits into it A relevant certification (AWS Security Specialty, Azure Security Engineer, or similar) is a strong plus Clear communication skills.
You'll need to explain risk to people who don't live in security day to day A methodical, calm head under pressure when something does go wrong Key perks and benefits: A$66,000 to A$96,000 depending on experience Hybrid working, split between home and the Perth office Private medical insurance and pension contribution Bonus scheme on top of salary Generous annual leave plus flexible working arrangements Why pursue a career in Cybersecurity?
Demand for cloud security skills keeps climbing as more business runs on cloud infrastructure, and Perth's resources and tech sector means local employers are competing hard for people who can secure it properly.
A Cloud Security Engineer who's good at the job rarely stays mid-level for long.
Pay grows fast, and so does the range of problems you get handed.
