Lynx Recruitment
Security architect
Posted: 8 January
Offer description

We partner with fast-moving engineering teams who build and run their businesses in the cloud.

Is your CV ready If so, and you are confident this is the role for you, make sure to apply asap.

They need pragmatic, code-literate security specialists and thats where you come in.

The Role Were looking for a hands-on AWS Security Architect who lives and breathes AWS .

Youll dissect designs, model attack paths, and show engineering teams what good really looks like.

Depending on the engagement, you might run a threat model, assess CI/CD pipelines, learn a vendor DSL for a PoC, or build internal tooling.

We dont expect you to know everything just to be curious, practical, and willing to dive in.

What Youll Do Threat Modelling & Architecture Reviews: Break down AWS services, map trust boundaries, build attack trees, and define security requirements before code ships.

Security Automation: Build IaC-driven checks, Lambda/Step Function tooling, CI/CD gates, and CSPM rules to enforce secure defaults at scale.

Hands-On Testing & Hardening: Perform cloud-native testing (IAM escalation, container escape attempts, infra abuse) and guide fixes directly via PRs.

DevSecOps Enablement: Pair with platform teams, review Terraform/CloudFormation/Kubernetes, and promote least privilege, logging, and runtime controls.

Knowledge Sharing: Contribute to documentation, demos, and continuous learning within the team. xjlbheb
