DevSecOps Engineer, Senior

The Opportunity

Modern engineering teams rely on secure, automated delivery pipelines and cloud‑hosted Dev Sec Ops  platforms to move quickly without sacrificing security. As a Dev Sec Ops  Engineer, you will design, build, harden, and operate CI/CD systems, cloud infrastructure, and container platforms that enable rapid, reliable, and secure software delivery. You’ll work with engineering teams to automate everything from code commit to production deployment while embedding security controls directly into the delivery workflow.

Your work will enable scalable, resilient cloud environments and frictionless Dev Sec Ops  capabilities across multiple programs and platforms.

• Build and secure CI/CD pipelines using Git Lab CI/CD, Git Hub Actions or similar platforms, integrating automated build, test, artifact management, and deployment stages.
• Embed security automation into all pipeline stages, including SAST, SCA, container image scanning, IaC policy validation, and secrets management.
• Engineer, deploy, and maintain cloud‑based Dev Sec Ops  tool chains on AWS, Azure, or GCP — including hosting CI/CD runners, registries, scanning tools, and orchestration components.
• Develop and manage Infrastructure‑as‑Code (IaC) with Terraform, Cloud Formation, or CDK to provision and secure cloud environments, networks, and services.
• Operate containerized platforms using Docker, Kubernetes, Helm, and Git Ops tooling to support automated, reproducible deployments.
• Troubleshoot complex pipeline failures and performance bottlenecks, ensuring reliable and repeatable deployments across multiple environments.
• Implement cloud security best practices, including IAM hardening, RBAC, network segmentation, TLS, reverse proxy designs, and hardened AMIs and images.
• Support observability and platform reliability through logging, monitoring, alerting, and automated remediation.
• Collaborate with developers, cloud engineers, and cybersecurity teams to evolve Dev Sec Ops  standards, architectural patterns, and secure deployment strategies.

• 6+ years of experience in Dev Sec Ops , Dev Ops, Cloud Engineering, or platform automation roles
• Experience designing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines with Git Lab CI or Git Hub Actions
• Experience deploying cloud infrastructure on AWS, Azure, or GCP using IaC, such as Terraform, Cloud Formation, or CDK
• Experience containerizing and orchestrating workloads using Docker and Kubernetes
• Experience integrating automated security checks into CI/CD pipelines, such as SAST, SCA, or image scanning
• Experience in Linux administration and proficiency in scripting languages, such as Python, Bash, or Go
• Experience with Git‑based branching, tagging, and release workflows
• Experience with networking fundamentals, such as DNS, routing, load balancing, or TLS
• Active TS/SCI clearance; willingness to take a polygraph exam
• Bachelor’s degree in a STEM field

• Experience with Git Ops tooling, such as Flux, Argo CD, or Helmfile
• Experience optimizing CI/CD pipelines, such as caching, artifacts, or parallelization
• Experience implementing Zero Trust patterns, hardened container images, or compliance‑focused deployments such as STIG or CIS Benchmarks
• Experience with AWS security services, such as Guard Duty, Macie, or Inspector, or equivalent Azure or GCP tools
• Experience with observability platforms such as Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, or Cloud Watch
• Experience with Ansible, Chef, Puppet, or similar configuration management systems
• Experience with AI augmented development workflows or agentic tools
• Master’s degree in Physics, Computer Science, or a STEM field
• Cloud or Dev Ops Certifications, such as AWS Solutions Architect, CKA, CKAD, or Security+, or related Certification

Applicants selected will be subject to a security investigation and may need to meet eligibility requirements for access to classified information; TS/SCI clearance is required.
