• Own technical delivery for the most complex customer accounts, from deployment through scaled, everyday use 

• Lead deployments across hybrid environments, including cloud, on-premises, Kubernetes, containers, Linux, and related infrastructure 

• Define solution architecture for customers with complex data estates, security needs, and business requirements 

• Adapt platform behavior when standard configuration does not fully match the customer’s data, workflows, or risk model 

• Build and operate integrations across customer systems, including identity, SIEM, ITSM, data platforms, APIs, and downstream tools 

• Diagnose and resolve deep technical issues across data, deployment, infrastructure, and integration layers 

• Build reusable agents, automations, tools, and playbooks that help the broader FDE team deliver faster and with higher quality 

• Turn manual customer outcomes into repeatable workflows for remediation, alerting, reporting, and operational follow-up 

• Lead architecture and design sessions with customer executives, security and privacy leaders, business teams, and engineers 

• Mentor other FDEs by reviewing solutions, sharing patterns, and helping unblock complex technical work 

• Partner with Sales Engineering, Product, and Engineering on strategic POCs, customer escalations, and product feedback from the field 

 

What You'll Bring 

• 8–12+ years of experience in deeply technical, customer-facing roles, such as forward-deployed engineering, solutions engineering, platform engineering, or technical consulting 

• Strong software engineering skills in at least one language, such as Python, Go, or TypeScript, with the ability to read unfamiliar code and understand complex systems quickly 

• Hands-on experience with Kubernetes, containers, Linux, and cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud 

• Experience deploying and operating solutions across complex cloud, hybrid, and on-premises enterprise environments 

• Strong understanding of APIs, system integration, SQL/NoSQL data stores, and structured or unstructured data 

• Experience building practical technical solutions, such as data pipelines, custom classifiers, integrations, automations, agents, or internal tools 

• Strong fluency with AI-native developer tools, agents, and automation, including creating reusable workflows that help others move faster 

• Strong customer presence, with the ability to build trust with executives, business leaders, and engineering teams 

• Working knowledge of data security, privacy, and regulatory topics across industries and geographies 

• High ownership, strong critical thinking, and the ability to bring structure to complex problems without a clear playbook 

 

Bonus Skills 

• Experience with DSPM, CSPM, DLP, data governance, privacy platforms, or related security domains 

• Experience building or heavily using AI agents, agentic coding assistants, MCP, or RAG systems 

• Familiarity with regulatory frameworks such as GDPR, SOC 2, or ISO 27001, especially across multiple geographies 

• Experience with enterprise data platforms such as Snowflake, Databricks, or BigQuery 

• Knowledge of access control, encryption, masking, or other data protection controls in enterprise data systems 

• Experience mentoring senior technical contributors or setting delivery standards in fast-paced, distributed teams

About the Role

Securiti's platform processes billions of data events per day across hundreds of enterprise clouds. As a DevSecOps Engineer, you will build and maintain the invisible infrastructure that makes this scale possible—ensuring developers can ship features daily while maintaining fortress-level security.

You will be responsible for designing self-healing deployment pipelines that turn infrastructure into code, security into automation, and complexity into reliability. Your work ensures that when a customer onboards petabytes of data, our platform scales transparently—without manual intervention.

Responsibilities

• Security-First Infrastructure: Architect and implement infrastructure-as-code using Terraform and CloudFormation, ensuring every deployment follows zero-trust principles and least-privilege access models.

• Kubernetes at Scale: Design and optimize our Kubernetes clusters to handle massive workloads, implementing intelligent autoscaling, pod security policies, and network segmentation that protects sensitive customer data.

• Zero-Downtime Deployments: Build sophisticated CI/CD pipelines using ArgoCD, Spinnaker, and GitOps patterns that enable blue/green and canary deployments—allowing us to ship multiple times per day with zero customer impact.

• Observability Engineering: Implement comprehensive monitoring and alerting using Prometheus, Grafana, and ELK, creating dashboards that surface anomalies before they become incidents.

• Multi-Cloud Orchestration: Manage infrastructure across AWS, Azure, and GCP, building abstraction layers that allow our platform to run anywhere while maintaining consistent security postures.

• Performance Under Fire: Be on-call to diagnose and resolve production issues in real-time, using your deep systems knowledge to troubleshoot complex distributed systems problems across the stack.

• Automation-First Mindset: Write Python and Go tooling that automates repetitive operational tasks, turning hours of manual work into seconds of automated execution.

Requirements

• Experience: 5+ years of software development with deep operational experience in cloud-native environments (AWS, Azure, GCP).

•  Infrastructure as Code Mastery: Expert-level proficiency with Terraform or AWS CloudFormation, with a portfolio of reusable modules and patterns.

• Container Orchestration: Production experience running Kubernetes at scale, including deep knowledge of networking, security contexts, and stateful workloads.

• CI/CD Architecture: Hands-on experience designing GitOps-based deployment pipelines using tools like ArgoCD, Spinnaker, Jenkins, or GitHub Actions.

• Development Skills: Professional coding ability in Python or Golang—you're not just configuring tools, you're building them.

• Database Operations: Working knowledge of SQL (Postgres), NoSQL (MongoDB/Elasticsearch), and Graph databases (Neo4j, Neptune) for operational troubleshooting and performance tuning.

• Linux & Networking Fundamentals: Deep understanding of Linux systems administration, bash scripting, network routing, load balancing, and service mesh architectures.

• Monitoring & Observability: Experience implementing full-stack observability with metrics, logs, and traces using Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, or similar tooling.

Bonus Points

• Security Certifications: AWS Security Specialty, CKS (Certified Kubernetes Security Specialist), or equivalent security-focused credentials.

• Service Mesh Experience: Hands-on work with Istio, Linkerd, or Consul for advanced traffic management and zero-trust networking.

• Chaos Engineering: Experience with fault injection frameworks (Chaos Monkey, Litmus) to build resilient systems.

• GitOps Evangelism: You've championed GitOps practices and trained teams on declarative infrastructure patterns.

• Cost Optimization: Track record of reducing cloud spend through intelligent resource management and architectural improvements.
