  • Prior experience automating compliance frameworks and generating audit evidence across a multi-cloud footprint
  • Don’t meet every single requirement? If you’re excited about this role but your past experience doesn’t align perfectly with every qualification in the job description, we encourage you to apply anyway. You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles
