We're looking for a

Senior Cloud Foundation Engineer to join our team in Malaga, Spain in a hybrid working mode. In this role, you will own the design and implementation of critical cloud foundation services, ensuring secure governance, access controls and platform reliability for enterprise‑scale infrastructure. You will work on core cloud governance challenges such as IAM policy architecture, multi‑tenant isolation and service connectivity — not just CI/CD tooling — while enabling rapid, safe innovation in high‑stakes financial environments.

Join a strategic engineering function tasked with building secure, scalable and resilient cloud foundations for one of the most sophisticated financial platforms in the world. You’ll influence control‑plane decisions that define how the entire organization consumes cloud services.

Responsibilities

Design and enforce IAM policies and least‑privilege access frameworks across multi‑account or multi‑project environments

Ownership of cloud governance models and platform security boundaries to support multi‑team environments at scale

Architect and implement multi‑tenant isolation mechanisms, private networking and secure connectivity patterns

Develop production‑grade solutions in Python, applying best practices for system design, modularity and error handling

Diagnose and resolve business‑critical issues during on‑call rotations, ensuring system resilience and reliability

Collaborate with security, infrastructure and application teams to maintain alignment with regulatory and compliance standards





Drive automation and tooling for governance, policy validation and access control enforcement

Continuously assess platform maturity and recommend improvements to strengthen security and reduce risk

Requirements

Demonstrated experience owning enterprise‑scale cloud infrastructure governance (IAM, control‑plane design, security boundaries) — not limited to consuming services

Hands‑on proficiency in cloud foundations for at least one major provider (Azure, AWS, or equivalent), including IAM/authentication design and enforcement, multi‑tenant isolation and account/project governance, and networking design (private endpoints, routing, service connectivity)

Proven production‑level coding skills in Python (beyond scripting), with strong knowledge in modular system architecture and error handling

Previous exposure to enterprise‑scale infrastructure systems or software platforms, ideally in regulated industries

Strong analytical, problem‑solving and strategic thinking skills

Ability to act as an escalation point for urgent issues and rapidly implement secure solutions

Nice to have

Multi‑cloud governance experience across Azure and AWS

Familiarity with compliance frameworks and their application within cloud foundations

Previous experience defining security and access governance for financial or mission‑critical systems

Expertise in infrastructure policy automation tooling
