Job: Azure Cloud Security Engineer
Location: Westlake TX or Merrimack NH - 2 weeks Onsite per Month
Required skills: Need someone with a background in Azure Identity Services in an Enterprise Level environment, who has worked at smaller companies isn't going to be the right match. I think the ideal person would come from an engineering background, not a Linux admin. Those candidates traditionally do poorly in interviews.
The top 3 skills according to John are:
- Identity Services / Entra ID / Azure AD
- Enterprise scale Authentication/Authorization in Azure
- Generic azure platform security
