Responsibilities:

• Collaborate with development and operations teams to integrate security practices into the CI/CD pipeline and automate security testing, monitoring, and compliance checks.
• Implement security controls and best practices for infrastructure as code (IaC) and configuration management tools to ensure secure deployment and management of infrastructure.
• Conduct security reviews and risk assessments of applications and infrastructure components to identify and mitigate security vulnerabilities and threats.
• Develop and maintain security policies, standards, and procedures to ensure compliance with regulatory requirements and industry best practices.
• Monitor and analyze security events and alerts using security information and event management (SIEM) solutions like ELK Stack or MS Sentinel to detect and respond to security incidents in real-time.
• Implement and manage security tools and technologies, such as vulnerability scanners (Tenable, Nessus) , intrusion detection/prevention systems (IDPS), and endpoint detection and response (EDR) solutions.
• Provide security guidance and support to development teams on secure coding practices, secure architecture design, and threat modeling.
• Participate in incident response activities, including investigation, containment, and remediation of security incidents, and contribute to post-incident reviews and lessons learned.
• Stay up to date with emerging security threats, vulnerabilities, and industry trends, and recommend security enhancements and improvements to mitigate risks.
• Manage and administer Windows and Linux lab environments, including system configuration, software installation, user account management, and security hardening (CIS Benchmarks).
• Implement and maintain security controls and best practices for Windows and Linux systems, including patch management, antivirus/antimalware deployment, and endpoint security configurations.
• Monitor system performance and troubleshoot issues related to Windows and Linux operating systems, network connectivity, and application dependencies.
• Implement and manage identity and access management (IAM) solutions for Windows and Linux environments, ensuring appropriate user access permissions and privilege management.
• Collaborate with development and operations teams to deploy, configure, and manage Windows and Linux servers and services in virtualized and cloud environments.
• Conduct regular security audits and vulnerability assessments of Windows and Linux systems and remediate identified security vulnerabilities and misconfigurations.

• Proven experience as a DevSecOps engineer or similar role, with a strong background in software development, operations, and security.
• Proficiency in scripting and programming languages (e.g., Python, Bash, PowerShell) and experience with automation tools and frameworks (e.g., Ansible, Terraform, Jenkins, GitLab CI/CD).
• Deep understanding of security principles, standards, and best practices, including secure coding practices, network security, identity, and access management (IAM), encryption, and authentication mechanisms.
• Hands-on experience with cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, Azure, GCP) and cloud security concepts, such as shared responsibility model, identity, and access management (IAM), and network security groups (NSGs).
• Familiarity with containerization technologies (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes) and container security best practices.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to analyze complex systems, identify security risks, and propose effective solutions.
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to effectively communicate security concepts and recommendations to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Proactive mindset with a continuous improvement mindset, and a passion for staying current with the latest security trends, tools, and techniques.
