DevSecOps Engineer

About the role

As a DevSecOps Engineer, you will be responsible for embedding security into every stage of the software delivery lifecycle while enabling reliable, scalable, and automated cloud platforms. You will work closely with development, security, and operations teams to design, build, and maintain secure CI/CD pipelines, cloud infrastructure, and Kubernetes platforms. This role plays a key part in ensuring security, compliance, and operational excellence across modern cloud-native environments.

Core responsibilities

Design, implement, and maintain secure, scalable CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions and GitOps practices.

Build and manage cloud infrastructure on Azure (preferred) and/or AWS/GCP using Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Terragrunt).

Deploy, manage, and secure Kubernetes clusters (AKS/EKS/GKE) using Helm charts and best practices.

Embed DevSecOps practices across the SDLC, including SAST, DAST, SCA, and container security scanning.

Implement and enforce policy-as-code using tools such as OPA and Azure Policy.

Manage secrets securely using Vault, Azure Key Vault, or equivalent solutions.

Collaborate with development teams to enable secure application builds, containerization, and deployments using Docker.

Design and maintain cloud networking components including VNets/VPCs, DNS, load balancers, and private endpoints.

Monitor production environments using logging and observability tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, and Azure Monitor.

Support incident response, alerting, performance tuning, and reliability improvements across platforms.

Provide L2/L3 operational support for cloud and platform services when required.

Contribute to platform engineering initiatives such as Internal Developer Platforms (IDP), self-service infrastructure, and golden paths.

Ensure compliance with security standards, governance guardrails, and secure SDLC practices.

Work closely with engineering, architecture, and security teams to improve system resilience, scalability, and security posture.

Document architectures, processes, and operational runbooks with high accuracy and clarity.

Stay up to date with emerging DevSecOps, cloud, and security technologies and share best practices with the team.
