📋 Description

• We're looking for a Senior DevSecOps Engineer to work closely with our Lead DevSecOps Engineer to improve the security, reliability, infrastructure, deployment, and operational maturity of our platform.
• This is a hands-on individual contributor role for someone who enjoys building, automating, securing, and improving production systems — not managing a team.
• You'll strengthen our CI/CD workflows, AWS infrastructure, observability, SOC 2 readiness, business continuity, disaster recovery, and 24/7 on-call operations.
• The ideal candidate is experienced, practical, and collaborative — comfortable owning technical workstreams and helping engineering teams ship safely and efficiently.
• Infrastructure & Cloud Engineering:
• Design, build, and improve secure, scalable AWS infrastructure using infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, Pulumi-Python).
• Improve cloud networking, IAM, secrets management, environment isolation, and secure configuration.
• Standardize provisioning, access control, auditability, and change management.
• Troubleshoot infrastructure issues and drive long-term fixes that reduce operational toil.
• CI/CD & Developer Experience:
• Build, maintain, and improve secure CI/CD pipelines for application, infrastructure, and platform deployments.
• Support container-based build and deployment workflows, including rolling updates and rollback strategies.
• Support Environment as a Service for the engineering and QA teams
• Reduce deployment friction while maintaining strong security and compliance controls.
• Security, Compliance & SOC 2 Type 2:
• Embed security controls into infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud operations.
• Support SOC 2 Type 2 readiness through control implementation, evidence collection, access reviews, and audit support.
• Manage secrets, IAM, least-privilege access, and vulnerability management across containers, dependencies, and cloud services.
• Ensure sensitive data is protected across logs, pipelines, monitoring systems, backups, and AI-assisted workflows.
• Contribute to secure usage patterns for AI/ML tools and services, including data handling, vendor risk, access controls, and model boundary considerations.
• Observability, Reliability & On-Call:
• Build and improve observability across logs, metrics, dashboards, and alerts; maintain centralized logging pipelines.
• Define and maintain SLOs, SLIs, alerting standards, and escalation paths.
• Participate in a 24/7 production on-call rotation; support incident response, root-cause analysis, and postmortems.
• Create and maintain runbooks, playbooks, and operational documentation.
• Business Continuity & Disaster Recovery:
• Design, document, and improve BC/DR plans; support RTO/RPO planning for critical systems.
• Implement and test backup, restore, replication, failover, and recovery procedures.
• Identify single points of failure and drive remediation across infrastructure, data stores, and operational processes.

🎯 Requirements

• 6+ years in DevOps, DevSecOps, SRE, platform engineering, infrastructure, or security engineering.
• Strong hands-on AWS experience, including IAM, networking, logging, monitoring, and secure access patterns.
• Solid CI/CD pipeline development and release automation experience; container build and deployment workflows.
• Infrastructure-as-code with Terraform and/or Pulumi (Python); strong scripting in Python, Bash, or similar.
• Strong Ubuntu/Linux command-line experience.
• Strong networking fundamentals, including VPCs, DNS, TLS, routing, firewalls/security groups, load balancing, and private connectivity.
• Observability tooling: logs, metrics, dashboards, alerts, and operational visibility.
• Experience with secrets management, IAM, audit logging, vulnerability scanning, and secure configuration.
• Strong hands-on experience with AI tools (e.g. Claude, ChatGPT) and AI-assisted development workflows, including an understanding of related security and data-handling risks.
• Experience participating in 24/7 on-call operations and supporting high-reliability production systems.
