Description
Key Responsibilities:

Lead Threat Modeling Efforts:
- Own and lead the threat modeling process, including identifying threats, vulnerabilities, and mitigations for cloud-based applications and systems hosted on GCP.
- Collaborate with architects, engineers, and product teams to design secure, resilient systems by incorporating threat modeling early in the design phase.
- Conduct threat assessments for current and existing GCP services and applications, identifying risk areas and recommending controls to mitigate identified threats.

Security Frameworks & Best Practices:
- Develop and implement security frameworks and threat modeling methodologies (e.g., STRIDE, PASTA) specific to cloud-based systems.
- Establish and promote best practices for applying threat modeling across all stages of the software development lifecycle (SDLC).
- Drive the adoption of threat modeling tools and automation, integrating them with existing CI/CD pipelines and security workflows.

Cross-Functional Collaboration:
- Work closely with the Cloud Security, DevOps,



and Engineering teams to ensure that threat modeling is integrated into the architecture review and deployment processes.
- Support incident response and vulnerability management teams by conducting post-mortem threat assessments following security incidents and breaches.

Security Risk Assessment & Mitigation:
- Identify potential attack vectors, misconfigurations, and design flaws in GCP resources and cloud-native architectures.
- Recommend actionable security improvements based on threat analysis and provide guidance on implementing mitigation strategies.
- Conduct risk assessments for third-party integrations, APIs, and other cloud service components that could expose security vulnerabilities.

Security Training & Awareness:
- Lead training sessions to educate internal teams on threat modeling techniques, security design principles, and secure cloud development practices.
- Mentor junior security team members and fost
