Job Description

Join Rogo, a leading AI-driven financial technology startup, as a Security Engineer. In this deeply hands-on role, you will lead the design and implementation of cloud security architecture across AWS and GCP. You will own the technical direction of cloud security, author Terraform-based security architecture, design and operate cloud identity systems, and build and maintain security automation. You will also define and implement logging, monitoring, and detection pipelines, perform threat modeling and architectural reviews, and act as a technical multiplier within the organization.

  • Architect and implement cloud security foundations across AWS and GCP, including account/project structure, IAM models, network segmentation, and secure service-to-service communication.
  • Own and author Terraform-based security architecture, including reusable, opinionated Terraform modules for IAM, networking, logging, and encryption.
  • Build and maintain security automation across CI/CD and cloud environments, eliminating manual processes and reducing operational risk.
  • Have built cloud security platforms or foundational infrastructure in AWS and GCP, not just consumed managed services
  • Can influence architecture through technical depth rather than organizational authority
  • Are deeply fluent in Terraform, including large-scale state management, module design, and safe rollout strategies
  • Think in terms of secure systems and primitives, not one-off controls or point solutions
  • Have strong opinions on cloud IAM and networking design, informed by real-world failures and incident response
  • Are comfortable operating in ambiguous environments and defining long-term technical direction
  • Prefer automation, code, and guardrails over documentation and manual review
  • You thrive in fast-paced environments. You are high-intensity and care a lot about what you do, and you're ecstatic to work at a startup
  • You are collaborative, organized, thoughtful, and kind
  • You are an owner. You are autonomous, self-directed, and comfortable working with ambiguity
  • You are ambitious. You have fun solving problems that others think are impossible
  • You are curious. You find joy in learning about AI, technology, and finance
  • Experience designing multi-account AWS organizations or large GCP project hierarchies
  • Familiarity with policy-as-code systems (OPA, custom policy engines, etc.)
  • Experience with cloud-native detection and posture tools, including tuning signal-to-noise
  • Background in high-growth startups or infrastructure-heavy platforms
