Lead DevSecOps Engineer
We are seeking a Lead DevSecOps Engineer to provide technical leadership across the design, implementation and continuous improvement of secure, scalable software delivery platforms. You will work closely with software engineering, infrastructure, architecture and security teams to embed security throughout the development lifecycle while enabling reliable and efficient delivery.
You will lead the development of DevSecOps practices, standards and tooling across cloud and hybrid environments. Responsibilities will include designing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines, automating infrastructure and configuration management, improving deployment processes, and introducing robust monitoring, logging and alerting. You will also champion infrastructure as code, containerisation and orchestration technologies, ensuring platforms are resilient, repeatable and compliant with relevant security requirements.
A key part of the role will involve identifying and addressing vulnerabilities across applications, infrastructure and delivery pipelines. You will establish effective security controls, integrate automated testing and scanning tools, support threat modelling and risk assessments, and contribute to incident response and remediation activities. You will provide technical guidance to colleagues, review designs and code where appropriate, and help develop engineering capability through mentoring, documentation and knowledge sharing.
The successful candidate will have significant experience in DevOps, DevSecOps, platform engineering or a closely related discipline, with a strong understanding of secure software development principles. You should be confident working with cloud platforms, Linux, Git, CI/CD technologies, containers and infrastructure-as-code tools. Experience with security automation, vulnerability management, identity and access management, and observability practices is essential. Familiarity with scripting or programming languages such as Python, Bash or PowerShell would be beneficial.
Strong communication and stakeholder management skills are required, along with the ability to influence technical decisions and lead through change. Relevant cloud, security or DevOps certifications are advantageous. This is an opportunity to shape engineering practices, improve security maturity and deliver meaningful technical change within a collaborative environment.
