What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or a related field, or equivalent work experience.
  • 8+ years of application development and/or infrastructure engineering experience.
  • 2+ years of active hands-on experience with application deployments in the Cloud (AWS, GCP, Azure).
  • Experience using DevSecOps tools for managing infrastructure as code such as CloudFormation, Terraform, Chef, Puppet, or Ansible.
  • Proficiency in programming languages including Java, Python, JavaScript (Node.js), and potentially .NET (C#, C++).
  • Experience with container systems like Docker and Kubernetes, and automation tools like Jenkins, Maven, Git, and Bash.
  • Knowledge of secure SDLC disciplines including cryptography, authentication, authorization, and secure data handling.
  • Technical understanding of security frameworks (CIS, NIST 800, PCI, HIPAA) and technologies (IDS/IPS, WAF) is preferred; specific certifications are preferred.
