Every open cloud security engineer role we track is on this page - nothing is held back behind a sign-up. The city chips read the employer’s own location line; a listing that names no city we can resolve stays searchable but sits out of them.
Open to remote only? 7 of the 9 cloud security engineer listings that publish a work model came back remote-first, and 1 more are hybrid. The other 11 say nothing either way - that field is one only some boards publish.

What 5 of these listings actually printed.
Every figure here comes from a live posting with a stated annual base range. Nothing is modelled, inferred, or averaged in from a survey - which is also why the sample is smaller than the board.

About Cloud Security Engineer roles
The Cloud Security Engineer job market currently shows 19 open positions across 18 hiring companies, based on available posting data. Of these, 2 roles were posted within the past week, indicating some ongoing, though limited, hiring activity in this specialty. Compensation data drawn from current postings shows a median (P50) salary of $203,500, with a 25th percentile of $200,000 and a 75th percentile of $260,000. This relatively narrow gap between the 25th percentile and the median suggests that a large share of disclosed postings cluster near the lower-to-mid range, while a smaller subset of roles offering more senior or specialized responsibilities push into the higher range near $260,000. Companies currently listed as actively hiring for Cloud Security Engineer roles include Intercom, Solaris, Chainguard, Zip, and University of Washington, spanning both private technology companies and at least one academic institution, which may point to demand for cloud security expertise across varied organizational contexts. With only 18 companies hiring for 19 roles, the ratio of roles to companies is close to one-to-one, suggesting that most hiring organizations have a single open position rather than large-scale hiring initiatives. The limited number of new postings this week relative to the total open roles may reflect a steady but modest pace of new job creation in this niche compared to broader hiring surges. Overall, the data reflects a specialized and relatively small segment of the job market, with compensation figures indicating that Cloud Security Engineer roles are generally well-compensated, consistent with the technical and risk-sensitive nature of the work. Job seekers and analysts should treat these figures as a snapshot of current, disclosed postings rather than a comprehensive view of the entire cloud security hiring landscape.
