What is DevSecOps?
DevSecOps combines best practices for information security with the capacity to continually integrate and deploy software changes. The combination of DevOps and Sec can increase software stability, security, and quality. DevSecOps is a development approach that has evolved from DevOps. Instead of only thinking about security at the end of making things, DevSecOps makes security a part of the process from start to finish. A DevSecOps Engineer are responsible generally for configuring the infrastructure, deployment and testing of builds, anticipating security threats to the product and the platform where it runs, and the development chain, and securing the development environment.
Key Responsibilities
· Design, implement, and maintain secure CI/CD pipelines and deployment automation within OpenShift.
· Manage and harden container orchestration platforms using OpenShift and Kubernetes, with a focus on security and compliance (e.g., STIGs, NIST 800-53).
· Integrate security tools and best practices into the software development lifecycle (e.g., static code analysis, vulnerability scanning, container image scanning).
· Automate infrastructure provisioning and configuration using tools such as Terraform, Ansible, or Helm.
· Work closely with development and security teams to enforce DevSecOps principles and respond to audit or compliance requirements.
· Monitor system performance, availability, and security, and implement proactive improvements.
· Troubleshoot production issues and lead incident response efforts.
· Mentor junior engineers and promote DevSecOps best practices across the organization.
