Cloud Security Engineer

About Workstreet

At Workstreet , we’re on an exciting journey to help businesses scale securely by designing and implementing cutting-edge security and compliance programs. As a fast-growing startup, we specialize in a wide range of GRC (governance, risk, and compliance) services that support frameworks across SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, CMMC, NIST 800-171, NIST 800-53, and FedRAMP. We empower companies to meet regulatory requirements and enhance their cybersecurity posture from day one.
The Opportunity

We are seeking an experienced Cloud Security Engineer with deep, hands-on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) expertise to help clients design, implement, and maintain secure OCI environments that meet stringent security and compliance requirements.

The ideal candidate has extensive experience securing OCI services, including Compute, Networking, Storage, Identity and Access Management (IAM), Security Zones, Cloud Guard, Vault, Logging, and related OCI security services. Experience with AWS, Azure, or GCP is considered beneficial but is secondary to demonstrated OCI expertise.

You will work closely with clients and internal engineering teams to strengthen cloud security, implement security automation, and ensure compliance across enterprise cloud environments, with OCI serving as the primary cloud platform.

This is an OCI-first role. Candidates must have strong, real-world experience designing, securing, and operating Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). Experience with OCI is a strict, non-negotiable requirement. Applicants without substantial OCI experience will not be considered.
