DevSecOps Engineer, Senior

The Opportunity:

Modern engineering teams rely on secure, automated delivery pipelines and cloudhostedDevSecOpsplatforms to move quickly without sacrificing security. As aDevSecOpsEngineer, you will design, build, harden, andoperateCI/CD systems, cloud infrastructure, and container platforms that enable rapid, reliable, and secure software delivery.You'llwork with engineering teams to automate everything from codecommitto production deployment while embedding security controls directly into the delivery workflow. Your work will enable scalable, resilient cloud environments and frictionlessDevSecOpscapabilities across multiple programs and platforms.

What You'll Work On:

• Build and secure CI/CD pipelines using GitLab CI/CD, GitHub Actions or similar platforms, integrating automated build, test, artifact management, and deployment stages.

• Embed security automation into all pipeline stages, including SAST, SCA, container image scanning,IaCpolicy validation, and secrets management.

• Engineer, deploy, andmaintaincloudbasedDevSecOpstoolchains on AWS, Azure, or GCP-including hosting CI/CD runners, registries, scanning tools, and orchestration components.

• Develop and manage InfrastructureasCode (IaC) with Terraform, CloudFormation, or CDK to provision and secure cloud environments, networks, and services.

• Operate containerized platforms using Docker, Kubernetes, Helm, andGitOpstoolingto support automated, reproducible deployments.

• Troubleshoot complex pipeline failures and performance bottlenecks, ensuring reliable and repeatable deployments across multiple environments.

• Implement cloud security best practices, including IAM hardening, RBAC, network segmentation, TLS, reverse proxy designs, and hardened AMIs and images.

• Support observability and platform reliability through logging, monitoring, alerting, and automated remediation.

• Collaborate with developers, cloud engineers, and cybersecurity teams to evolveDevSecOpsstandards, architectural patterns, and secure deployment strategies.
