About this job

The Role The Platform Security team is responsible for securing Block's cloud, compute, and network infrastructure across multiple business units including Square, Cash, and Afterpay. We discover, track, and enable the business to remediate the most critical security risks across Block's cloud ecosystems (AWS and GCP). We drive the creation of cloud security policy and best practices, measure and aggregate deviations from these policies, and develop capabilities to estimate security risk based on cloud signals and business context. This work drives Block's cloud security strategy and is the lens through which Block measures progress of our cloud security posture over time. We believe that the secure option should be the easiest option for our users.
