DevSecOps Engineer

About the Role

We are looking for a proactive and skilledDevSecOps Engineer with5+ years of hands-on experience to join our growing engineering team. You'll be working closely with a small team of five DevOps engineers to build, maintain, and scale secure cloud infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and observability stacks. We value asecurity-first engineering mindset where you will integrate security-as-code practices throughout the entire development lifecycle. If your background is in DevOps, that is a great fit, provided you have always focused on and enjoyed the security aspects of your work, and are now ready to fully commit to a dedicated security role.

We value collaboration, strong communication, and a growth mindset: you'll be expected to contribute ideas, give and receive feedback, and work independently to ensure our platform is as secure as it is performant.

Your Responsibilities

• Integrate automated security scanning (SAST, DAST, container scanning) into CI/CD pipelines to ensure early detection of vulnerabilities.

• Maintain and audit cloud infrastructure compliance (e.g., SOC2, HIPAA, GDPR) through automated policies.

• Implement security best practices within Terraform/IaC to ensure "security-as-code" consistency.

• Monitor and respond to cloud security incidents, collaborating closely with security and compliance teams.

• Design, implement, and maintain cloud infrastructure primarily onAWS, with strong focus onEC2, RDS, OpenSearch, andEKS.

• Help to manage theKubernetes clusters running our microservices (we have over a hundred in production) as well as the legacy EC2-based platform.

• Hardening Kubernetes clusters by implementing network policies, RBAC, and secure pod security standards to protect our microservices environment.

• Collaborate on maintaining ourInfrastructure as Code (IaC) maintenance usingTerraform.

• Identify opportunities for automation and optimization in deployment and infrastructure management.

• Document processes, infrastructure, and decisions clearly and effectively.

• Partner closely with our Information Security Lead on compliance audits, control evidence, and security roadmap prioritization, while reporting into the Head of DevOps for day-to-day work.
