Senior DevSecOps Engineer Contract
An experienced Senior DevSecOps Engineer is required for a contract assignment, supporting the delivery of secure, resilient and scalable technology services. You will work across development, operations, infrastructure and security teams to embed security throughout the software development lifecycle and improve the efficiency of engineering practices.
The role will involve designing, implementing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure-as-code and automated testing processes. You will help establish secure deployment patterns, improve release reliability and promote consistent engineering standards across cloud and hybrid environments. You will also monitor platform performance, investigate incidents and contribute to the continual improvement of operational processes.
Security will be central to the position. Responsibilities will include identifying and managing vulnerabilities, integrating security tooling into development workflows, supporting threat modelling and ensuring that systems meet relevant governance, risk and compliance requirements. You will contribute to security reviews, audit preparation and the development of practical controls that enable teams to deliver at pace without compromising resilience or protection.
The successful candidate will have strong commercial experience in a DevSecOps, platform engineering or cloud security role, with a proven record of delivering automation and secure engineering solutions. You should be confident working with cloud platforms, containers, orchestration technologies and configuration management tools, alongside scripting or programming languages such as Python, PowerShell or Bash. Experience with source control, pipeline technologies, vulnerability management and observability tools is also expected.
Excellent communication and collaboration skills are essential, as you will work with both technical and non-technical stakeholders and help promote a positive security culture. The ability to assess complex problems, explain risks clearly and deliver pragmatic solutions in a changing environment will be highly valued.
This is a contract opportunity offering the chance to make a tangible impact on engineering capability, platform security and delivery performance. Candidates must be able to work effectively within agreed delivery timeframes and hold the right to work for the duration of the engagement.
