About the Role
This is a hands-on, high-ownership engineering role at the intersection of development, security, and operations. As DevSecOps Engineer, you will own the reliability, automation, and data protection practices of a live, scaling healthcare platform — ensuring engineering teams can ship fast without compromising compliance, privacy, or resilience.
You will design and continuously improve CI/CD pipelines, cloud infrastructure, and security automation, embedding secure-by-design principles across the entire product lifecycle. This role carries real strategic influence: you will participate in architecture reviews, shape the company's DevSecOps culture, and build internal tooling that empowers developers across the organisation.
If you believe security belongs at every stage of the development lifecycle — and you want to prove it — this role was built for you.

Must Have
5–9 years of experience in DevOps, Security, or Cloud Engineering roles
Strong hands-on experience with CI/CD, Docker, Kubernetes, and Terraform
Minimum 3–5 years of Azure experience, including IAM, VPCs, and networking
Working knowledge of Python or Bash for automation and scripting
Proven experience integrating security tools into build and deployment pipelines
Familiarity with compliance or regulated environments (healthcare, fintech, or govtech)

Experience implementing SOC 2, HIPAA, or PDPA controls
Familiarity with FHIR / HL7 data standards or healthcare data interoperability
Exposure to SIEM tools (Splunk, Wazuh) and threat modelling practices
Knowledge of infrastructure cost optimisation and cloud governance
Interest in mentoring engineers on DevSecOps best practices
