POSITION SUMMARY

Deloitte Global is the engine of the Deloitte network. Our professionals reach across disciplines and borders to develop and lead global initiatives. We deliver strategic programs and services that unite our organization.

Work you'll do

Are you energized by building at the intersection of cloud and security engineering? Our current cloud security tooling is a genuinely wide, still-evolving mix — cloud-native platforms, CNAPP tooling, and classic SIEM — with real room to bring more coherence to it, and a real appetite to bring AI into how we build, detect, and analyze. If designing the telemetry, data, and infrastructure that a global organization depends on to detect and respond to threats across a multi-cloud environment sounds like a good problem to work on, read on to learn about an opportunity on the Cloud Defensive Operations team within Deloitte's Global Cloud Security (GCS) organization.

As a Cloud Defense Security Engineer, you'll design, build, and directly manage the cloud security telemetry, monitoring, and alerting infrastructure that underpins how Deloitte's global cloud platform — used by Member Firms worldwide — is defended. GCS builds the platform-level capabilities that our Cyber Defense team relies on to see, understand, and respond to what's happening across the cloud — so your work has direct, foundational impact on Cyber, without the SOC or on-call rotation that usually comes with it.

This role is anchored in strong, hands-on technical execution across AWS, Azure, and/or GCP. The ability to collaborate across teams and contribute to strategy matters too, but it's something we'll help you build over time rather than expect on day one.

This role reports to the Cloud Defensive Operations Manager.

Where you'll make an impact:

* Cloud detection and response platform. Contribute to an internal platform GCS builds to support Cyber Defense's cloud investigation, triage, and response. * Unified threat visibility. Help bring cloud-native alerts, internal configuration guardrails, and our cloud-native application protection (CNAPP) service into a more unified view, in a landscape that's genuinely still evolving. * AI-infused security engineering. Explore how AI can change how we build, detect, and analyze — from AI-assisted engineering to AI-driven correlation across data sources.

Responsibilities:

* Design, build, and directly manage cloud security telemetry, logging, and alerting infrastructure — including log ingestion, storage, retention, and retrieval — across multiple cloud environments. * Apply modern software and cloud engineering practices — IaC, automation, CI/CD — to security-critical systems. * Spot and help close gaps in visibility or coverage, and contribute ideas on guardrails and improvements as you grow into the role. * Support post-incident reviews, document your work, and build working relationships across GCS, Cyber Defense, and cloud engineering teams.
