Your Mission
As a Senior Dev Sec Ops Engineer (Security Tooling & Enablement), you will be responsible for embedding automated security controls and guardrails into our CI/CD pipelines, cloud platforms, and developer workflows. You’ll build and operate internal security tooling and integrations that enable secure delivery at scale—focusing on automation, low-friction developer experience, and high-quality security feedback loops. You will partner closely with platform, cloud, App Sec, and Sec Ops teams to deliver scalable, reliable, and friction-reducing security capabilities across the engineering organisation.
ResponsibilitiesSecurity in CI/CD & Delivery Workflows
- Integrate and maintain security checks (SAST, DAST, SCA, secrets scanning) into CI/CD pipelines.
- Provide fast, actionable, low-noise feedback to developers.
- Embed infrastructure and application scanning into automated deployments.
- Design, build, and operate internal security services, APIs, CLIs, and automation workflows.
- Apply strong software engineering practices to security tooling (testing, observability, version control).
- Treat security tooling as a product with clear documentation and support.
- Implement and maintain policy-as-code guardrails for IaC, Kubernetes manifests, cloud accounts and identity configurations.
- Work with platform teams to define secure defaults and self-service patterns.
- Support vulnerability scanning platforms and security telemetry pipelines.
- Ensure high-quality structured security data flows to SIEM/log platforms.
- Enable automated response actions via integrations and runbooks.
- Champion secure engineering practices and a shared responsibility mindset.
- Drive enablement activities (office hours, guides, training) to improve adoption of secure patterns.
- Contribute to blameless post-incident reviews and continuous improvement.
- Leverage automation and AI to reduce manual toil and enrich security findings.
- Define and track metrics such as time-to-feedback, signal-to-noise, and tooling adoption.
- 5+ years in security engineering, Dev Sec Ops , or platform engineering with significant security integration experience.
- Hands‑on experience embedding security into CI/CD (SAST/DAST/SCA, container scanning, secrets detection).
- Proficiency with CI/CD platforms (e.g., Git Hub Actions, Git Lab CI, Jenkins) and IaC (e.g., Terraform).
- Strong software engineering and automation skills (Python, Go, Bash, or similar).
- Deep cloud-native experience (AWS preferred), including IAM, networking, and logging.
- Experience designing and implementing policy-as-code and security guardrails.
- Ability to collaborate cross‑functionally, balancing security with delivery velocity.
- Experience in fintech or regulated environments.
- Familiarity with WAF/DDoS tools, Zero Trust, and vulnerability management programmes.
- Exposure to SOAR or security automation platforms.
- Relevant certifications (AWS Security, Kubernetes Security, GIAC, CISSP, etc.).
- Extreme ownership:
You take end‑to‑end responsibility for outcomes, not just findings or tooling output - Pragmatic and delivery‑aware:
You balance risk reduction with product velocity, focusing on changes that materially reduce risk - Low‑ego and collaborative:
You build trust with engineers, product, and operations teams, influencing through credibility and partnership - Impact‑driven:
You measure success through outcomes—risk reduction, adoption, and time‑to‑remediate—not activity - Data‑informed:
You use metrics and trends to guide priorities and demonstrate impact - High bar for craft:
You produce clear documentation, reusable patterns, and automation that scale across teams - AI‑first mindset:
You actively look for opportunities to use automation and AI to improve security outcomes
- We trust you, so we offer flexible working hours, as long it suits both you and your team;
- Health Insurance;
- Physical and mental health support through our partnership with MyFitness;
- 25 days of Annual leave (+ Bank Holidays);
- Possibility to visit…
