Senior Cloud Security / DevSecOps Architect
We are seeking a Senior Cloud Security / DevSecOps Architect to define and deliver secure, scalable cloud solutions across a complex technology environment. This is a strategic and hands-on role for an experienced security professional who can embed security throughout the software development lifecycle while enabling innovation and operational efficiency.
You will lead the design of cloud security architecture across platforms such as AWS, Azure or Google Cloud, establishing robust controls for identity and access management, network security, data protection, workload security and regulatory compliance. You will develop and maintain security patterns, reference architectures and technical standards, ensuring that cloud services are secure by design and aligned with business and risk requirements.
A key part of the role will be integrating DevSecOps practices into delivery teams and engineering pipelines. You will implement and improve automated security testing, code analysis, vulnerability management, secrets management, container security and infrastructure-as-code scanning. You will work closely with architects, developers, platform engineers, operations and governance teams to identify risks, agree pragmatic solutions and promote a strong security culture.
You will also provide technical leadership during security assessments, cloud migrations and incident response activities. The role includes reviewing designs, supporting threat modelling, advising on remediation plans and keeping informed of emerging threats, technologies and industry standards.
We are looking for significant experience in cloud security architecture and DevSecOps, with a strong understanding of secure software development and modern engineering practices. You should be confident working with cloud-native technologies, CI/CD tooling, containers, Kubernetes, APIs, Terraform or similar infrastructure-as-code platforms, and security monitoring solutions. Experience with security frameworks such as NIST, CIS, ISO 27001 or CSA is desirable.
Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills are essential, as is the ability to explain complex security concepts clearly and influence decisions at all levels. Relevant professional certifications, such as CISSP, CCSP or a cloud security certification, would be advantageous.
