full-timeSenior Cloud Infrastructure Security Engineer
Flexport · Amsterdam, Netherlands
Flexport is a global logistics and supply‑chain technology company that moves merchandise across more than 100 countries using its platform. The Senior Cloud Infrastructure Security Engineer works within the combined Platform, Security & Infrastructure team to design and review cloud security architecture for AWS and Kubernetes, focusing on account structure, network segmentation, workload identity and secure‑by‑default patterns. Day‑to‑day tasks include fixing Terraform modules to eliminate misconfigurations at the source, hardening the Kubernetes platform through pod security, service mesh, network policy, secrets management and image provenance, and building policy‑as‑code and IaC scanning tools that block risky patterns in CI pipelines using Go or Python. The role also involves acting as the local technical voice for Amsterdam engineering teams, partnering with the US‑based cloud security group, and ensuring new services inherit secure defaults. It suits candidates with roughly five to eight years of hands‑on cloud, infrastructure or platform security experience, proficiency in a compiled language like Go and a scripting language like Python, solid Terraform/GitOps practice, and a strong grasp of IAM and least‑privilege design; familiarity with cloud‑security‑posture tools, supply‑chain security practices, EU data‑residency considerations or multi‑cloud environments is a plus.
