Senior DevSecOps Engineer

Senior DevSecOps Engineer

Industry: FinTech / Open Banking

Stack: GCP, Kubernetes, Terraform, Python/Go, GitLab CI / GitHub Actions

Office: London (hybrid, 2 days/week)

Salary: Up to £100k

One of the original open banking infrastructure companies — and the list of names running on top of their platform tells you everything you need to know. Household names in payments, accounting, and big tech. They’re not a startup finding their feet, they’re the picks-and-shovels layer that serious fintech businesses depend on.

They’re now looking for a Senior DevSecOps Engineer to own security across the platform.

This isn’t a checkbox compliance role. The platform is multi-tenant, highly available, and built on GCP and Kubernetes at scale — and the person coming in will be laying down the foundational security posture from the ground up. Think automated guardrails baked into CI/CD, GCP hardening, vulnerability management end-to-end, and “golden path” templates that let feature teams ship confidently without cutting corners on security.

It’s the kind of role where you’re building the thing, not auditing it after the fact. If you’ve spent time in a regulated environment and found yourself frustrated by security being bolted on at the end, this is the opposite of that.

The wider perks are solid too — equity, private medical, nomad working (up to 20 days/year from anywhere), and yes, dogs in the office.

Ideal profile: deep GCP and Kubernetes security experience, strong with Terraform or OpenTofu, hands-on with security tooling (Aqua, Falco, Prisma Cloud or similar), and comfortable scripting in Python or Go. Fintech certifications — SOC2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS — are a genuine bonus given the regulated environment.

Hit apply and I’ll reach out with some more information 🙂.
