Job Description

The Staff Security Engineer, Cloud & AI Platform is a deeply technical, hands-on role responsible for making Brookfield Real Estate’s cloud and AI platforms secure by design. You will lead security architecture and implementation across AWS, Infrastructure as Code, software delivery, internally developed applications, and AI/agent systems.

This is a builder role. You will threat-model a design, review the underlying Terraform and application code, implement the control, instrument it, and help teams adopt it without unnecessary friction. Security requirements become reusable modules, automated checks, secure defaults, and clear engineering guidance rather than documents and findings lists.

You will partner closely with Cloud Solutions, application engineering, AI engineering, Identity, CyberOps, and GRC/Privacy. Platform engineering continues to own general platform uptime, capacity, and deployment mechanics, and CyberOps continues to own alert triage; this role owns the architecture, controls, tooling, and assurance mechanisms that make those systems safe.
