We are seeking a Staff Information Security Engineer to join Five9's Information Security team. This role will own the operationalization and ongoing maturity of Five9's Cyber Resiliency program (the practice of using tooling to continuously identify, prioritize, and remediate infrastructure resilience issues across our AWS, GCP, Azure cloud environments). You'll be responsible for program governance, tool ownership, process development, and engineering engagement to scale the program across the organization. As secondary responsibilities, you will support the Cloud Security program as a senior technical resource.
Cyber Resiliency Program (Primary)
Own the operational lifecycle of the Cyber Resiliency program, including tool administration, system and resource mapping, criticality tiering, and issue triage workflows
Develop and maintain program governance: process documentation, SLAs for remediation, escalation paths, and quarterly review cadences
Build executive reporting for security and engineering leadership: resilience score trends, remediation velocity, IaC coverage, and risk exposure by system criticality tier
Drive the communication plan for the program, ensuring engineering teams understand expectations before receiving remediation tickets
Define and maintain issue prioritization frameworks that balance system criticality, environment, severity, and remediation effort
Partner with engineering leads to drive remediation of infrastructure resilience issues, removing blockers and tracking progress through Jira
Cloud Security (Supporting)
Partner with the Cloud Security team on architecture reviews, policy development, and strategic initiatives across GCP, AWS, and Azure
Develop and refine security guardrails, policy-as-code, and automated detection and response capabilities for cloud misconfigurations
Evaluate and improve cloud security posture including IAM architecture, network segmentation, and workload protection
Ensure cloud security solutions are under configuration management and deployed through CI/CD pipelines
5+ years of experience in information security, with demonstrated experience in a senior technical role
Experience operationalizing a security program or service: building governance, processes, and reporting, not just executing within an existing framework
Deep hands-on experience with at least one major cloud platform (GCP strongly preferred), including IAM, networking, compute, and storage security
Strong experience with infrastructure-as-code (Terraform required) and CI/CD pipelines
Demonstrated ability to drive remediation and risk reduction across engineering teams without direct authority
Experience building executive-level security reporting and metrics
Excellent communication skills: able to present program status and risk to engineering leadership, security leadership, and executive audiences
Self-directed with the ability to manage competing priorities across program operations and supporting workstreams
Experience with cyber resilience or infrastructure resilience tooling (Gambit, Wiz, or similar CSPM/CNAPP platforms)
Experience conducting risk assessments or security maturity assessments using frameworks such as NIST CSF, ISO 27001, or CMMI
Background in Kubernetes security and container workload protection
Experience with multi-cloud environments (GCP + AWS + Azure)
Python scripting for automation and tooling
Security certifications (CISSP, CCSP, SANS certifications, or similar)
Prior experience in a SaaS, contact center, or communications platform environment
Experience mentoring or technically leading junior engineers
Workplace location: This role is fully remote for candidates who reside outside Porto, Maia, Matosinhos, Gondomar, Valongo e Vila Nova de Gaia. Candidates who reside within those municipalities would be required to work in-office 3 days a week.
