What’s the Role:
The Senior Engineer, Security Controls Assessment is a hands-on technical specialist, responsible for engineering, automating and assessing the security controls that protect the Westpac Group's cloud platforms, with a primary focus on Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and Amazon Web Services (AWS).

Key Responsibilities:
- Design, build and maintain automated security controls across GCP and AWS, covering IAM, network security, encryption, monitoring and Kubernetes security.
- Develop Infrastructure as Code and Policy as Code using technologies such as Terraform, OPA/Rego, Sentinel, GCP Organization Policies and AWS SCPs.
- Lead the rollout and adoption of Wiz, integrating cloud security capabilities across identity, security operations, ticketing and engineering environments.
- Embed automated security scanning and policy controls into CI/CD pipelines, including IaC, secrets and container image scanning using GitHub Enterprise, Harness.io and Wiz Code.
- Build continuous controls monitoring and automated evidence collection using Python, supporting security frameworks including CIS Benchmarks, NIST CSF and APRA CPS 234.
- Partner with Cloud Platform and Engineering teams to drive Security by Design, remediate cloud security risks, apply AI-led engineering practices and strengthen secure cloud, IaC and Policy as Code standards.
What do I need?
- Strong cloud security engineering experience across GCP and/or AWS, with GCP highly desirable.
- Hands-on experience with Infrastructure as Code and Policy as Code, particularly Terraform.
- Strong DevSecOps experience, embedding security controls and scanning into CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Enterprise, Harness.io or similar tooling.
- Experience with cloud security platforms such as Wiz/CNAPP and securing Kubernetes environments including GKE and EKS.
- Strong security automation skills using Python, including continuous controls monitoring and automated security processes.
- Solid understanding of cloud security controls and frameworks such as CIS, NIST and APRA CPS 234, with the ability to engage and influence technical and business stakeholders.
