About Workstreet
At Workstreet , we’re on an exciting journey to help businesses scale securely by designing and implementing cutting-edge security and compliance programs. As a fast-growing startup, we specialize in a wide range of GRC (governance, risk, and compliance) services that support frameworks across SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, CMMC, NIST 800-171, NIST 800-53, and FedRAMP. We empower companies to meet regulatory requirements and enhance their cybersecurity posture from day one.

Get to Know the Security Services Team
We are the team that turns complex security requirements and compliance frameworks into infrastructure and services that actually work. Moving fast and taking true end-to-end ownership, our Cloud Security Engineering team designs hardened AWS, Azure, and GCP environments, writes Terraform baselines, and fixes failing controls to meet frameworks like SOC 2, ISO 27001, CMMC, and FedRAMP. We do not hide behind process or just point out gaps. We step in, build solutions, and deliver real security posture improvements with minimal disruption.

What makes this team special isn’t just our technical depth; it is how we back each other up. Our strongest engineers are the ones building reusable modules, writing custom tools, jumping into channels to unblock teammates, and mentoring without being asked. From early-stage startups to regulated enterprises, you will work directly with clients, take on real ownership early, and be surrounded by people who want to see you get good. If you enjoy solving tough security problems and want to be part of a team that is scrappy enough to move fast but seasoned enough to get it right, you will be in good company here.
The Opportunity
Workstreet is seeking a Manager, Cloud Security Engineering to lead a team of Cloud Security Engineers who design, build, and operate cloud security controls for our clients across AWS, Azure, and GCP. This is a player-coach leadership role for someone who has built hardened cloud environments themselves and now wants to multiply that impact through a team.

You will own the quality, capacity, and consistency of Cloud Security Engineering delivery: hiring and developing engineers, staffing and overseeing client engagements, setting engineering standards, and serving as the escalation point for technical and relationship issues. You will stay close enough to the work to review architecture, unblock engineers, and step into client conversations when it matters, while working alongside the GRC delivery teams to deliver outcomes that hold up in front of auditors and adversaries alike.

You will work with client engineering leads and executives during U.S. Eastern Time business hours, and you will be accountable for ensuring that every client environment achieves drift-resistant, code-defined security rather than documentation-only compliance.
