About the Role

We are looking for a DevSecOps Engineer to take complete ownership of our cloud infrastructure, CI/CD pipeline, security posture, observability, and business continuity.

You will be the primary infrastructure and security owner, working closely with the Head of Engineering. This is a hands-on role with significant architectural ownership—you'll be building, securing, and scaling infrastructure that supports a privacy-first platform.

Infrastructure and release management are currently handled by an external engineering partner. A key part of this role will be bringing these responsibilities in-house, taking ownership of the existing Terraform infrastructure, and establishing strong engineering and security practices.

What You'll Own:

• AWS Infrastructure: ECS Fargate, VPC, Aurora/RDS, MSK and KMS in ap-south-1
• Infrastructure as Code: Terraform with consistent environments and production parity
• CI/CD: GitLab CI/CD, OIDC federation and automated security gates
• Observability: CloudWatch, X-Ray and centralized log aggregation
• Security: WAF, Shield, Secrets Manager, Private CA, mTLS, GuardDuty and AWS Config
• Business Continuity: Backups, restore testing, disaster recovery and retention
• Cloud Cost Management: Monitoring and explaining infrastructure costs
• Incident Management: On-call ownership, troubleshooting and postmortems

Key Challenges:

This role goes beyond traditional infrastructure operations.

• Build observability and debugging systems without exposing customer data
• Implement and demonstrate data residency within India, including backups, logs and replicas
• Design infrastructure that supports long-term data retention and regulatory requirements
• Build security controls that can actively prevent insecure releases
• Take ownership of infrastructure as the primary DevSecOps function during the early stage

Minimum Qualifications:

• 6+ years of experience managing production cloud infrastructure, or 4+ years with an advanced degree
• 4+ years of hands-on Terraform experience managing production environments
• 4+ years of AWS experience across compute, networking and data services
• Strong experience with ECS or equivalent container orchestration, VPC, RDS/Aurora and IAM
• 3+ years of CI/CD ownership, including SAST, DAST, dependency and secret scanning
• Working knowledge of AWS KMS, encryption, certificate lifecycle and mTLS
• Strong scripting skills in Python or Bash
• Experience handling production incidents and on-call responsibilities
• Strong technical documentation and postmortem writing skills

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience implementing data residency/data sovereignty requirements
• Hands-on Kafka/MSK operations
• Experience with SOC 2 or ISO 27001 infrastructure compliance
• Experience with compliance automation platforms
• AWS Solutions Architect, DevOps Engineer or Security Specialty certification
• Hands-on experience with Private CA, WAF/Shield, GuardDuty and AWS Config

What We Offer:

• Hybrid working with an anchor at our Grandthum office, Greater Noida
• Defined core collaboration hours with flexibility outside those hours
• Significant architectural ownership and decision-making authority
• Company-issued devices and approved tooling
• Opportunity to build infrastructure and security practices from an early stage
• A role with direct impact on a privacy-first product operating in a regulated environment

Pay: ₹150,000.00 - ₹191,666.00 per month

Application Question(s):

• How many years of hands-on experience do you have managing production AWS infrastructure?
• How many years of hands-on Terraform experience do you have managing production environments?
• Which AWS services have you worked with in production?
• Have you implemented SAST, DAST, dependency scanning and secret scanning within a CI/CD pipeline?
• The budget for this role is ₹18–23 LPA, depending on relevant experience and interview performance. Are you comfortable with this range?
