Lynx are working with a leading consultancy who partner with fast-moving engineering teams who build and run their businesses in the cloud. They need pragmatic, code-literate security specialists. The Role They''re looking for a hands-on AWS Security Architect who lives and breathes AWS. You''ll dissect designs, model attack paths, and show engineering teams what good really looks like. Depending on the engagement, you might run a threat model, assess CI/CD pipelines, learn a vendor DSL for a PoC, or build internal tooling. They don''t expect you to know everything - just to be curious, practical, and willing to dive in. What You''ll Do Threat Modelling andamp; Architecture Reviews: Break down AWS services, map trust boundaries, build attack trees, and define security requirements before code ships. Security Automation: Build IaC-driven checks, Lambda/Step Function tooling, CI/CD gates, and CSPM rules to enforce secure defaults at scale. Hands-On Testing andamp; Hardening: Perform cloud-native testing (IAM escalation, container escape attempts, infra abuse) and guide fixes directly via PRs. DevSecOps Enablement: Pair with platform teams, review Terraform/CloudFormation/Kubernetes, and promote least privilege, logging, and runtime controls. Knowledge Sharing: Contribute to documentation, demos, and continuous learning within the team.
