About Coalfire

Coalfire is on a mission to make the world a safer place by solving our clients’ hardest cybersecurity challenges. We work at the cutting edge of technology to advise, assess, automate, and ultimately help companies navigate the ever-changing cybersecurity landscape. We are headquartered in Chicago, Illinois with offices across the U.S. and U.K., and we support clients around the world.

But that’s not who we are – that’s just what we do.

We are thought leaders, consultants, and cybersecurity experts, but above all else, we are a team of passionate problem-solvers who are hungry to learn, grow, and make a difference.

Position Summary

We’re looking for a Principal Google Cloud Security Consultant to serve as a senior advisor, technical architect, and delivery leader for enterprise GCP security engagements. This role helps clients design, secure, deploy, and operationalize Google Cloud environments while translating business risk, compliance needs, and emerging technology requirements into scalable security programs.

  • Advise enterprise customers on GCP security strategy aligned to business risk, regulatory requirements, and operating priorities
  • Lead Google Cloud security posture assessments to identify high-impact risks, misconfigurations, control gaps, and operational weaknesses
  • Advise customers on Google SecOps, Chronicle, SIEM strategy, cloud telemetry strategy, detection engineering, and SOC workflow design
  • Advise customers on Wiz use cases such as CNAPP, CSPM, vulnerability prioritization, attack path analysis, entitlement risk, and remediation workflows
  • Develop executive-ready findings, prioritized remediation roadmaps, and maturity-based security improvement plans
  • Lead Security Command Center and Security Command Center Enterprise implementation, configuration, tuning, and operationalization
  • Integrate Security Command Center findings into vulnerability management, compliance, security operations, and executive risk reporting workflows
  • Support SIEM modernization and migration planning, including log source rationalization, detection migration, alert tuning, and operational transition
  • Help customers move from fragmented monitoring approaches into scalable, cloud-native security operations models
  • Own complex technical workstreams from discovery through delivery, including technical direction, scope, risks, and stakeholder coordination
  • Translate technical security findings into clear business risks, investment priorities, and actionable recommendations for senior leaders
  • Guide customer teams through secure Google Cloud design, configuration, deployment, and operational maturity decisions
  • Advise on Vertex AI and AI workload security, including identity, access control, data protection, governance, logging, and monitoring
  • Create architecture diagrams, assessment deliverables, roadmaps, implementation documentation, and operational runbooks
  • Develop repeatable methodologies, assessment frameworks, implementation patterns, reference architectures, and reusable technical assets
  • Mentor consultants and help raise the overall capability of the Google Cloud Security practice
  • Provide technical leadership during client reviews, executive briefings, architecture discussions, and operational meetings
  • Contribute to process improvement and automation initiatives that improve consistency, scalability, and delivery quality
  • WORK ENVIRONMENT/TRAVEL REQUIRED:

    Remote working environment with up to 25% travel required.

What You'll Bring

  • 8 years of security consulting experience spanning various domains with at least 4 years experience directly working as a Google Cloud consultant.
  • Hold one or more of these security certifications: Google Cloud Professional, Cloud Security Engineer, or Professional Cloud Architect / Google Cloud Professional Security Operations Engineer, or equivalent Google Cloud security experience
  • Proven track record delivering Google Cloud security architecture, posture modernization, and operationalization outcomes from discovery through handover.
  • Hands-on leadership in cloud security projects across security, cloud, DevOps, architecture, compliance, and operations teams.
  • Documented success integrating cloud-native security platforms, SIEM, CNAPP/CSPM, logging, monitoring, vulnerability management, and SOC workflows.
  • History working under regulatory or industry frameworks such as FedRAMP, FISMA, HIPAA, HITRUST, PCI, CMMC, or similar standards.
  • Demonstrable client-facing consulting experience, maintaining professionalism and clear communication in ambiguous, high-stakes, or fast-paced engagements.
  • 6 years of security consulting experience spanning various domains with at least 2 years experience directly working as a Google Cloud consultant.
  • Deep experience designing, securing, deploying, and operationalizing Google Cloud environments.
  • Strong expertise in Google Cloud security architecture, IAM, networking, logging, monitoring, data protection, workload security, and compliance-oriented design.
  • Hands-on experience with Google Cloud security services, including Security Command Center or equivalent cloud-native security platforms.
  • Experience leading cloud security posture assessments, architecture reviews, or enterprise cloud security modernization efforts.
  • Proven ability to lead complex technical engagements with multiple stakeholders, competing priorities, and enterprise-scale environments.
  • Highly adaptable consulting mindset with the ability to move between strategy, architecture, implementation, delivery leadership, and executive advisory work.
  • Excellent communication, organizational, and problem-solving skills, including the ability to brief executives and guide technical teams.
  • Strong documentation skills for creating diagrams, assessment reports, roadmaps, implementation plans, written recommendations, and supporting materials.
  • Critical thinking skills to balance security requirements against business objectives, operational realities, and customer maturity.
  • Proven track record adapting quickly and efficiently in fast-paced, dynamic customer environments.

Bonus Points

  • Google Cloud certifications: Professional Cloud Security Engineer, Professional Security Operations Engineer, or Professional Cloud Architect.
  • Security Command Center Enterprise: Experience implementing, configuring, tuning, or operationalizing SCC Enterprise.
