What Success Looks Like
Environments are reproducible, secure and consistently deployed through automation.
Security checks operate early in CI/CD and material findings are resolved before production.
Access, secrets and audit evidence meet approved control requirements.
Monitoring detects meaningful failures and runbooks support rapid diagnosis and recovery.
Backup and disaster-recovery capabilities are tested and evidenced, not merely documented.
7+ years in DevOps, platform engineering, cloud security or site reliability engineering.
Strong AWS and/or Azure experience, including infrastructure-as-code, networking, IAM, logging, monitoring and security services.
Hands-on CI/CD experience with automated testing and security gates.
Experience supporting sensitive workloads in banking/financial services preferred; regulated-industry experience accepted.
Working knowledge of vulnerability management, secure SDLC, incident response, penetration testing, backup and DR.
Experience with containers/serverless and modern observability practices.
Ability to produce audit-ready evidence and work effectively with enterprise control functions.
Preferred Experience
Cloud security or DevOps certification.
Experience with SOC 2-aligned controls, NIST/ISO frameworks or financial-institution security reviews.
Experience securing AI/model services, RPA workers and enterprise integrations.
Experience with privacy, retention and Canadian data-residency considerations.
