DevSecOps Engineer

about the role

We are looking for a hands-on DevSecOps Engineer to strengthen and scale security initiatives in our fully cloud-native AWS environment. You will help evolve our DevSecOps practices, improve cloud and Kubernetes security, vulnerability management, and perform security reviews across infrastructure and applications.

You will work closely with security and engineering teams, making hands-on improvements while contributing to long-term security direction. We value practical, scalable solutions and smart automation, and we expect ownership and a proactive mindset.

As we actively adopt AI, use LLMs extensively, and build internal AI agents, security must scale alongside innovation and regulatory requirements – making AI-aware security a key part of this role.

• Familiarity with container security and common application security risks.
• Deep understanding of AI/LLM security risks, including prompt injection, data leakage, model abuse, and agent privilege escalation; hands-on experience securing AI infrastructure components such as LLM gateways, MCP servers, or agent-based workflows.

• Good communication skills and ability to work effectively with engineering and product teams.
• Comfortable communicating clearly in English, both written and spoken.
