SUMMARY:
Our client is a forward-thinking technology business that believes great engineering and great security should go hand in hand. They're building modern cloud platforms, investing in automation, AI, and scalable infrastructure, and they're looking for a DevSecOps Engineer to help lead the charge. This is a hands-on opportunity to embed security into every stage of the development lifecycle, automate security controls, strengthen AWS environments, and champion a security-first culture across engineering teams. If you're the type of person who sees a manual process and immediately wants to automate it, sees a security risk and wants to engineer it out of existence, and hears "we've always done it this way" as a challenge rather than an explanation, you'll fit right in.
POSITION INFO:
Key Responsibilities: Be the guardian of the gates, building security into every deployment, pipeline, and platform before threats even get a chance to knock Hunt down vulnerabilities like a digital bounty hunter and automate their detection before they become tomorrow's problem Turn security best practices into engineering superpowers by embedding them directly into CI\/CD pipelines and development workflows Design cloud environments that are secure, resilient, and ready for anything the internet decides to throw at them Champion the \"shift-left\" movement, helping developers catch issues early when fixes are quick and coffee consumption remains reasonable Build security guardrails that keep teams moving fast without driving off a compliance cliff Partner with engineers, architects, and technology leaders to make security everyone's responsibility, not just a team's job title Transform complex security risks into practical solutions that real humans can actually understand and implement Create visibility across the platform through monitoring, reporting, and observability, because you can't protect what you can't see Explore emerging technologies and AI-driven solutions that push the boundaries of what's possible in modern security engineering Lead the charge toward a secure-by-design future where security is woven into every decision, every release, and every success story In short: you'll be part security strategist, part automation wizard, part cloud defender, and part engineering enabler, helping build platforms that are as secure as they are innovative Job Experience and Skills Required: You've built a career in DevSecOps, Security Engineering, or Cloud Security and know how to stop problems before they start. Terraform, AWS, CI\/CD, and automation are your trusted sidekicks. You know your way around security frameworks, cloud security, IAM, encryption, and secure-by-design principles. SAST, DAST, vulnerability management, and security tooling aren't just buzzwords on your CV, they're tools you've used in the real world. You're constantly looking for smarter, faster, more secure ways of doing things. You solve problems, automate repetitive tasks, and leave every platform stronger than you found it. Bonus Points If... You've worked with TypeScript, Java, DataDog, Rapid7, or CrowdStrike. AI, emerging technology, and security innovation genuinely excite you. Think engineer. Act like a hacker. Automate like a wizard.
