Desirable

• As a DevSecOps Engineer, you'll work closely with Yusuf, our Senior DevOps Engineer, and help build and secure the cloud platform that makes this possible. You'll ensure our products are secure, reliable, and scalable, while giving our Tech and Product teams the tools they need to deliver new features quickly and confidently
• You'll sit at the intersection of DevOps, Security, and IT. Working closely with our Security Engineer, IT Manager, Software Engineers, and Product teams, you'll turn security policies into automated guardrails, built into the same pipelines, infrastructure modules, and developer experience that power our learning platform. For us, security isn't a gate at the end of the process; it's a feature of the platform itself
• Building and improving our AWS infrastructure using Terraform, with security designed in from the start: least-privilege IAM, encryption, and network controls as defaults, not afterthoughts
• Embedding security into our CI/CD pipeline: dependency, container, and secrets scanning in every pipeline, and making the results actionable for engineers instead of noisy
• Introducing policy-as-code (e.g. Checkov, OPA) so infrastructure misconfigurations are caught before they're merged, not after they're deployed
• Developing secure-by-default infrastructure modules that enable engineering teams to launch new, secure services with ease
• Strengthening our cloud security posture across a multi-account AWS organization: identity management, threat detection, and vulnerability management as an ongoing program
• Automating compliance: working with our Security Engineer and IT Manager to turn security controls into automatically collected, audit-ready evidence, and supporting security audits
• Improving monitoring and observability using Grafana Cloud and OpenTelemetry, including security signals and alerting
• Finding opportunities to automate repetitive processes and continuously improve the developer experience
• This role offers plenty of ownership while giving you the opportunity to learn, grow, and help shape the platform that powers Lepaya's mission to transform workplace learning

• Ensuring a smooth candidate journey is our top priority. Here's a sneak peek into our standard hiring process: 1. An intro video call with Tracy, from TA, 2. An hour chat with Yusuf & Tim, the team member 3. A Technical case assignment followed by a technical interview with Yusuf and Tim at the office followed by a quick 4. Coffee chat with Max (IT) and Henrique(Eng), when all positive, a last call with Rovana, the hiring manager, and finally, an offer! We're all about getting to know you better, so we'll invite you to our office for a face-to-face stage, where you can meet potential future colleagues and experience our awesome office vibes firsthand!
