Secure our codebases and pipelines from misuse, bad coding practices, vulnerable dependencies, and exposed secrets.
What Youâll Bring
Develop and implement tooling for Static Application Security Testing (SAST) along with improving analytics in Github Security Centre.
Implement a robust end-to-end process in partnership with Application Security teams for Code Scanning, Secret Scanning, and Dependency Reviews.
Establish and enforce policies for secure code development and vulnerability management.
Automate remediation workflows to streamline vulnerability fixes and improve code quality.
CI/CD Tooling and Pipeline Security
Design and enhance secure CI/CD pipelines to ensure secure, automated, and reliable software delivery.
Implement guardrails and security checks (e.g., static/dynamic analysis, software composition analysis) into CI/CD pipelines.
Standardize and optimize tools like Jenkins, GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, or other CI/CD platforms.
Security by Design
Champion secure coding practices and lead efforts to embed security in all stages of the SDLC.
Collaborate with development teams to identify and mitigate risks early in the development lifecycle.
Provide technical leadership for implementing industry best practices in application security and cloud-native environments.
Automation and Infrastructure Security
Develop and manage infrastructure-as-code (IaC) security processes.
Automate security tasks, including testing, monitoring, and alerting for potential threats.
Drive continuous improvement through automated patch management and dependency updates.
Compliance and Governance
Ensure CI/CD and GitHub workflows comply with regulatory requirements (e.g., SOC 2, GDPR).
Develop and maintain metrics and reporting to demonstrate the Engineering teams' security program effectiveness.
Leadership and Collaboration
Serve as a subject-matter expert and mentor for engineers on DevOps and DevSecOps principles and tooling.
Lead incident response and forensic investigations related to DevSecOps environments.
Requirements
Bachelorâs degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field; advanced degree preferred.
10+ years of experience in Operations, DevOps, DevSecOps, or related engineering roles.
Expertise in building out application security pipelines and CI/CD platforms using tools such as GitHub Actions, Jenkins, and/or Azure DevOps.
Proficiency in programming/scripting languages like Python, Go, or Typescript.
Hands-on experience with IaC tools (Terraform, OpenTofu, CloudFormation) and cloud platforms (AWS, Azure).
Strong understanding of application security, container security (Docker, Kubernetes), and cloud security (AWS or Azure Services) .
Knowledge of modern software delivery paradigms, including microservices and serverless architectures.
Familiarity with security frameworks and standards (OWASP, NIST, CIS).
Exceptional problem-solving skills, communication, and ability to work in a fast-paced environment.
Nice To Have
Certifications such as AWS Certified Security, Certified DevSecOps Professional, or CISSP.
Experience with SAST/DAST tools like SonarQube or Burp Suite.
Experience hardening SCM codebases using tools such as Legitify, Scorecard or Allstar.
Experience rolling out GenAI tools for Software Engineers with a Security-First approach.
