Role
Who you are
- We’re looking for someone who thrives on solving hard technical problems in cloud environments, knows how to balance speed and control, and can turn complex GCP security challenges into practical, automated solutions
- Multi-Cloud Expertise: 5-8 years in cloud security with proven experience managing security controls in AWS, GCP, and Azure
- Hands-on experience with the Wiz platform. Preference for candidates who have moved beyond the dashboard and into WizOS, Runtime, and Response & Remediation
- Deep knowledge of GCP services (IAM, VPC, GKE, Cloud Run, GCS, KMS, SCC) and their security implications
- Experience implementing guardrails with Terraform
- Strong grasp of IAM design, service account lifecycle, and secrets management in the cloud
- Familiarity with cloud logging/monitoring (Cloud Logging, VPC Flow Logs, Wiz findings) and integration into SIEM/SOAR
- Proficiency in Python and Terraform is required. You should be comfortable writing scripts that interact with Cloud APIs to automate infrastructure changes
- Ability to work as a peer to Engineering, providing the "how" of security remediation, not just the "what."
- Bonus: experience with HIPAA/HITRUST environments, SOC 2 Type II audits, or healthcare data protection
- Bias Toward Action: Demonstrated ability to take initiative, make decisions under uncertainty, and move projects forward even in the face of ambiguity. We value individuals who are self-starters and ready to act on opportunities and challenges alike
- Entrepreneurial Spirit: Strong adaptability to changing business needs with a knack for building and optimizing processes. Your entrepreneurial mindset will be crucial in navigating the dynamic landscape of our industry, ensuring our platform remains competitive and responsive to user needs
- Communication: Excellent communication skills, capable of explaining complex technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders. Effective communication is vital for cross-functional collaboration and ensuring alignment across our organization
- Remote Work Adaptability: Comfort with remote work environments, demonstrating the ability to stay productive and connected with the team irrespective of physical location
- Continuous Improvement: A willingness to question assumptions and a commitment to continuous improvement. Your openness to feedback and dedication to personal and professional growth will contribute significantly to our collective success
- If you are a highly motivated and experienced individual who is passionate about using technology to improve people’s lives, we would love to hear from you
What the job involves
- Function Health is building a modern cloud security program to protect our members and platform as we scale
- As a Cloud Security Engineer, you’ll focus on securing our Google Cloud Platform (GCP) environments, designing and enforcing guardrails that make our infrastructure secure by default
- This role is hands-on and impact-driven: you’ll own detection, hardening, and automation that directly reduce risk across production systems
- Multi-Cloud Engineering: Serve as the primary security partner for teams building across AWS, GCP, and Azure, ensuring pragmatic, high-impact risk reduction and consistency across all environments
- Infrastructure Guardrails: Orchestrate and implement organization-level constraints to enforce guardrails and prevent misconfigurations using a "secure-by-default" philosophy
- Edge Defense & Connectivity: Own the Cloudflare stack, including the deployment and tuning of WAF rules for public endpoints, global DNS management, and edge-level threat mitigation
- Code-to-Cloud Remediation: Partner with engineering to address risks at their origin by mapping cloud vulnerabilities back to source code and integrating automated security checks into CI/CD pipelines
- Workload Hardening: Drive deep visibility into cloud workloads, enforcing secure defaults for OS-level hardening, network segmentation, logging, and runtime monitoring
- Identity & Access Governance: Lead the adoption of identity best practices across all cloud providers, focusing on least privilege and the elimination of long-lived credentials
- Automated Response & Remediation: Design and build automated workflows to remediate high-priority cloud risks and misconfigurations, turning manual security tasks into scalable code
- SecOps Partnership: Support the Detection and Response function by integrating cloud-native telemetry and CSPM findings into centralized workflows, providing expertise on cloud forensics and containment
- Vulnerability Management: Lead the identification and lifecycle management of cloud-based vulnerabilities, including secrets exposure and service misconfigurations, while partnering with teams on practical fixes
- Metrics & Strategy: Define and track cloud security KPIs (e.g., remediation velocity, public endpoint coverage, IAM hygiene) to help shape the long-term infrastructure security roadmap
Our take
With the predominant model of healthcare being routine checkups and care for severe discomfort, chronic disease and health disparity are on the rise in the US. Function Health is a company that promotes a continuous mode of healthcare by removing barriers to lab testing.
Founded by former employees at Google Research, Meta, Fitbit and Tonal, Function Health provides subscribers with new ways to manage their health, opting for preventative measures rather than treatment. It does this by providing members with all-in-one lab testing, with more than 100 different tests available. It quantifies results and insights in an accessible and actionable manner, making caring for your health easier to manage.
Having only come out of stealth in 2023, it's impressive to see Function already secure a substantial Series B round and a 50,000-plus membership base. Its disruptive model of preventative healthcare is clearly turning heads, and it will use its fresh funding to scale its platform to a wider market.
