DevSecOps Engineer

About the role

The DevSecOps Engineer will be responsible for integrating security practices directly into the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) and Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipelines. This mid-level role focuses on automating security controls, managing vulnerabilities, securing cloud infrastructure, and ensuring application security without sacrificing development speed.

Key responsibilities

• Embed automated security testing tools into CI/CD pipelines (SAST, DAST, SCA, and secret scanning)

• Harden cloud environments (AWS/Azure/GCP) and audit Infrastructure as Code (IaC) scripts (Terraform/CloudFormation) for compliance and misconfigurations

• Analyze scan results, prioritize vulnerabilities, and work directly with software developers to remediate security issues

• Secure containerized applications and orchestrators (Docker, Kubernetes) by performing image scanning and enforcing runtime policies

• Ensure deployments align with security standards (e.g., OWASP Top 10, CIS Benchmarks, NIST)

About you

• Experience in DevOps, Application Security, or Systems Engineering with a focus on DevSecOps practices

• Proficiency with CI/CD platforms (GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, Jenkins, or Azure DevOps)

• Experience with security tools such as SonarQube, Snyk, Checkmarx, OWASP ZAP, Trivy, or Aqua Security

• Strong scripting skills in Python, Bash, or Go for building automation wrappers

• Hands-on experience with cloud security models (AWS, Azure, or GCP)

Top 3 Most Important Skills

1. CI/CD Security Integration & Security Testing: Hands-on experience embedding automated security scanning tools—SAST (e.g., SonarQube, Checkmarx), DAST, and SCA (e.g., Snyk, Dependency-Check)—into pipelines (Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions).

2. Cloud Security & Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Solid understanding of securing cloud environments (AWS, Azure, or GCP) and scanning IaC configurations (Terraform, CloudFormation) for security flaws using tools like Checkov or Trivy.

3. Container & Kubernetes Security: Expertise in containerization (Docker) security, image scanning, container registry security, and Kubernetes RBAC/policy enforcement (e.g., Aqua Security, Sysdig, Trivy).
