DevOps Engineer
This is a hands-on DevSecOps position where you will embed security throughout the development lifecycle and help shape a security-first engineering culture.
You’ll play a key role in building scalable, secure-by-design systems across cloud infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, monitoring, and vulnerability management.
Key Responsibilities:
Secure CI/CD
Design, build and maintain secure CI/CD pipelines, embedding security tooling and best practices into the development lifecycle to ensure security by design.
Infrastructure Security
Implement and manage security controls across AWS environments. Secure infrastructure using Terraform with a security-first IaC approach, and enhance container security across Docker and Kubernetes platforms.
Vulnerability Management
Conduct automated security assessments and vulnerability scans, support penetration testing activities, and drive remediation planning. Implement and optimise SAST, DAST and IAST tooling to identify risks earlier in the SDLC.
Monitoring & Threat Detection
Develop monitoring and alerting capabilities to detect threats and anomalies. Implement SIEM and cloud-native monitoring solutions (e.g. Elastic, Datadog) to provide actionable security insights.
Collaboration
Work closely with Engineering and InfoSec teams to embed DevSecOps best practices, promote secure coding standards, and ensure alignment with regulatory and compliance requirements.

- Strong hands-on experience with CI/CD tools (e.g. Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, CircleCI)
- Deep experience securing AWS environments
- Terraform or CloudFormation expertise
- Strong container security knowledge (Docker, Kubernetes)
- Scripting skills (Bash, Python)
- Experience with security tooling such as SonarQube, Snyk, OWASP ZAP, Trivy, tfsec, AWS Inspector
