Senior Cloud / Security Engineer

Job description

## Senior Cloud / Security Engineer **CYBRET AI** Remote Norway and Europe preferred Full-time Early hire with equity ## About CYBRET AI CYBRET AI is building **Autonomous Security Infrastructure** for modern organizations operating in complex, distributed, cloud-native environments. Our ambition is to move cybersecurity away from reactive, human-dependent workflows and toward continuous, intelligent, autonomous security. We design systems that combine human judgment where it matters with fully autonomous decision-making where speed, scale, and precision are required. We make a strict distinction between automation and autonomy. CYBRET AI does not rely on static rules or predefined playbooks. We build systems that understand context, reason over attack surfaces and exposure, assess real-world consequences, and take risk-based decisions. Humans are involved only when escalation is necessary. Our primary focus is **Exposure and Vulnerability Management as a decision system**, not a reporting layer. Instead of listing CVEs or producing noisy scan results, our platform understands real attack surfaces, realistic attack paths, business criticality, identity relationships, trust boundaries, and how modern attackers chain exposures in practice. We are building toward Azure, AWS, and Google Cloud Marketplace launches, with cloud-agnostic design as a core principle. ## About the Role This is a **senior, hands-on cloud and security engineering role** with real ownership and influence. You will help design, secure, and reason about cloud-native environments at scale. Your work will directly shape how CYBRET AI models exposure, cloud risk, identity relationships, and attack paths across modern infrastructure. You will operate at the intersection of **cloud architecture, security engineering, identity, networking, and platform design**, influencing both product logic and real-world security outcomes. ## Responsibilities ### Cloud Security Architecture Design and evaluate secure architectures across Azure, AWS, and GCP Define security-first patterns for cloud-native and hybrid environments Assess misconfigurations, exposure, and trust boundaries across cloud services ### Identity and Access Security Work deeply with identity systems, IAM, permissions, service principals, and role design Model identity-driven attack paths and privilege escalation scenarios Help define secure identity and access patterns across cloud environments ### Exposure and Attack Surface Engineering Model and analyze attack surfaces across cloud, identity, network, and application layers Identify real-world attack paths rather than theoretical vulnerabilities Contribute to how CYBRET AI reasons about exploitability and exposure ### Network and Zero Trust Security Design and assess network architectures including private networking, segmentation, and zero-trust principles Evaluate exposure through public services, APIs, ingress points, and infrastructure ### Security Logic and Risk Reasoning Contribute to detection logic, correlation, and risk reasoning across multiple security signals Help distinguish noise from real risk to support autonomous decision-making ### Research and Threat Modeling Track cloud-focused attacker techniques and emerging exploitation patterns Perform threat modeling to improve coverage, logic, and decision quality ## How We Work CYBRET AI operates fully remote. The team is currently based in Norway, but we hire internationally. We recruit based on **merit, excellence, and intelligence**. We value deep focus, curiosity, and strong ownership. You are expected to work independently and make sound decisions in both low-effort, high-impact situations and high-effort, high-impact situations. A strong shipping mindset is essential. Security work must lead to real product improvements, not just analysis. Interest in cloud security research and state-of-the-art techniques is strongly preferred. Writing technical blogs or research content is optional but highly valued. This is an early-stage startup. The pace is high, structure evolves continuously, and impact is real. ## Culture and Benefits Monthly social gatherings such as weekend trips, cabin stays, and team events covered by CYBRET AI Dedicated budget for learning, courses, and professional development Small, highly skilled, talent-dense team Ambition to scale without sacrificing quality or depth English is the primary working language Norwegian company with potential future transition to a US INC structure Fully remote role with home office agreement Laptop of your choice up to 20,000 NOK Optional home office equipment Mobile subscription and home internet fully reimbursed Strict confidentiality and correct handling of sensitive information is mandatory Ability to pass background checks and applicable security clearance is required Standard insurance coverage is provided ## Equity and Ownership CYBRET AI offers a **highly competitive and generous Employee Stock Option Program**. Early hires are viewed as **owners, not employees**. This role includes meaningful equity and long-term upside. ## Why Join CYBRET AI You should join CYBRET AI if you want to: • Work on real-world cloud and security problems • Influence how autonomous security systems reason about exposure and risk • Build security systems that go beyond dashboards and alerts • Be an early owner in a company with global ambition
