Senior DevSecOps Engineer

AI overview

Lead the design and implementation of secure multi-cloud infrastructure while embedding security into CI/CD pipelines and ensuring compliance with major frameworks like SOC 2 and GDPR.

The Role

We are looking for a Senior DevSecOps Engineer to lead the security and infrastructure of our high-performance data integration platform. You will oversee the security architecture across our multi-cloud environment (AWS & GCP) and ensure our architecture runs securely and efficiently at scale. You will bridge the gap between engineering and security, embedding robust defenses directly into our infrastructure and deployment workflows.

Responsibilities

  • Secure Infrastructure: Design, implement, and manage secure, scalable cloud infrastructure across AWS and GCP. Enforce security best practices, ensuring flexibility and robustness.
  • Application Security: Lead security initiatives for our architecture. Implement comprehensive protection mechanisms against web threats and vulnerabilities, and establish robust strategies for managing credentials and sensitive data securely across the platform.
  • DevSecOps & CI/CD: Architect and optimize CI/CD pipelines (Specifically GitHub Actions), embedding automated security gates and checks to catch vulnerabilities early in the software delivery lifecycle.
  • Compliance & Governance: Lead the implementation and maintenance of security controls for major frameworks such as SOC 2, GDPR, and ISO 27001.
  • Observability: Define and maintain a high-level monitoring and alerting strategy to detect security anomalies and performance bottlenecks, ensuring complete system visibility

Requirements

  • DevOps Expertise: 5+ years of experience managing production environments with a deep understanding of AWS (security models, permissions, and core services).
  • CI/CD Automation: Strong proficiency with GitHub Actions for building and maintaining automated pipelines
  • Compliance Experience: Proven experience implementing or maintaining compliance with SOC 2, GDPR, or ISO 27001 standards.
  • Infrastructure as Code: Proven experience with Terraform (or equivalent) for managing complex stateful environments.
  • Configuration Management: Experience with tools like Ansible (or equivalent automation/init scripts).
  • Observability Tools: Hands-on experience with standard monitoring stacks like Grafana, Prometheus, or similar.
  • Scripting: Proficiency in Go, Python or Bash for automation and tooling.
  • Language: Fluent English (written and verbal) is required to support our distributed, international team.

Advantages (Bonus Points)

  • Kubernetes: Experience managing and securing Kubernetes clusters (Managed or Self-Hosted).
  • ClickHouse: Experience managing or optimizing ClickHouse (or similar high-performance OLAP databases).
  • Background in managing high-throughput data pipelines.
