The Ideal Candidate
The ideal candidate is a senior, hands‑on DevSecOps Engineer with strong experience operating and securing cloud‑native production environments in regulated settings.
They have deep expertise in AWS, Kubernetes and Infrastructure as Code, and are comfortable owning production reliability, security monitoring, incident response and audit readiness (e.g. SOC2, PCI‑DSS). They favour automation over manual processes and take a pragmatic, security‑first approach to building and running scalable platforms.
This individual works well across engineering teams, communicates clearly in a distributed environment, and is confident mentoring others on secure infrastructure and DevSecOps best practices.
The Role
The DevSecOps Engineer's objective is to integrate security controls and maintain a highly available cloud infrastructure. You will ensure our platform remains secure, scalable, and compliant with relevant security standards (including SOC2 and PCI-DSS) by focusing on the running, securing, and monitoring of services in production.
Key Objectives
- Production Excellence: Operate production environments with a security-first mindset, monitoring both availability and potential threats.
- Infrastructure as Code: Build and maintain secure IaC to manage platform scaling and consistency.
- Continuous Compliance: Ensure the success of security audits through automated compliance checks and rigorous evidence collection.
- Culture & Collaboration: Bridge the gap between development, security, and operations to foster a robust DevSecOps culture within the wider Engineering department.
Responsibilities
- Infrastructure Management: Manage core AWS services (EKS, RDS, S3, Lambda) with a focus on encryption, least-privilege access, and service reliability.
- Monitoring & Incident Response: Develop and refine strategies for monitoring system health and security events using tools like OpenSearch, Prometheus, and Grafana.
- Compliance & Auditing: Ensure all AWS environments meet relevant security standards.
