Lead DevSecOps Engineer

As our first Lead DevSecOps Engineer, you’ll own security across our product and technology estate. Operating at the Lead level and reporting into our Engineering Director, you'll act as a deep subject matter specialist, defining our 12–18 month security roadmap and embedding security into our "paved road" so doing the secure thing is the fast, default option for every engineer.

You'll split your time roughly between:

• Strategic Security Roadmap & Governance: Defining priorities (OWASP SAMM audits), managing vendors, responsible disclosures, and advising leadership on risk trade-offs with commercial clarity.

• Shift-Left Controls & Developer Experience: Partnering with DX to build security into CI/CD pipelines (code/dependency scanning, secrets management, policy-as-code, feature flagging).

• AI-First Security & Hands-On Engineering: Hardening authentication, securing agentic AI workflows against prompt injection and data leakage, and using agentic coding tools (e.g. Claude Code, Cursor) to accelerate remediation.

• Deep experience embedding security into fast-moving product engineering environments across AWS (ECS/Fargate) and GCP.

• Expertise in infrastructure-as-code, CI/CD security, least-privilege identity, policy-as-code, and continuous monitoring.

• Real, personal experience using agentic coding tools to accelerate security workflows, and a strong awareness of how to secure AI systems themselves.

• Ability to operate as an individual contributor/expert without a team beneath you, influencing squads and translating technical risk for senior stakeholders with candour and clarity.
