DevSecOps Engineer

Job description

We prioritize learning and teamwork and love giving people the opportunity to champion solutions to big challenges and grow into better versions of themselves. A great candidate believes in Raya's vision, which is to enrich lives by fostering relationships through quality, in person interactions. You thrive at the intersection of DevOps and Security, and you're excited to drive measurable impact by hardening our AWS/EKS environment and systematically closing out security findings. ### Responsibilities - **Security Ownership:** Drive software engineering security hygiene end-to-end, from identifying vulnerabilities and misconfigurations to implementing durable fixes across our platform. This includes AWS, Kubernetes, CDN/WAF, and other technologies used in the PDLC - **Cross-Functional Collaboration:** Work hand-in-hand with DevOps and Engineering teams to embed security best practices into everyday workflows, without slowing down velocity - **Continuous Learning:** Stay current on evolving cloud security threats, tooling, and best practices, ensuring Raya's infrastructure stays ahead of emerging risks - **Findings Remediation:** Triage, prioritize, and systematically close out security findings, translating scanner output into practical, actionable engineering fixes - **Operational Excellence:** Expand and maintain security checks and guardrails in CI/CD pipelines and the broader PDLC, so security becomes a natural part of how we ship, not an afterthought ### Qualifications - Strong hands-on experience with **AWS** and **Kubernetes/EKS,** comfortable navigating cloud infrastructure and container environments from day one - Solid foundation in **security fundamentals:** vulnerability management, IAM, network security, and cloud security posture management - Experience triaging and remediating security findings from vulnerability scanners or cloud security tools - Familiarity with **CI/CD pipelines** and integrating security practices into the software development lifecycle - Strong communication skills, able to work effectively with both DevOps and Security stakeholders and translate technical risk into clear priorities - Experience with Infrastructure-as-Code (e.g., Terraform/OpenTofu), compliance frameworks, or container security tooling ### What Sets You Apart - **Bridge Builder:** You naturally sit at the intersection of DevOps and Security, translating between the two and earning trust from both sides - **Impact-driven:** You prioritize the fixes and improvements that meaningfully reduce risk, rather than chasing every alert - **Growth-oriented:** You possess a perpetual learner's mindset, staying curious about new threats, tools, and cloud-native security practices - **Ownership mentality:** You take findings from discovery to resolution without needing to be chased, and you build systems so problems don't recur - **Productivity-obsessed:** You value tools, workflows, and automation that make security scalable rather than manual - **Bias toward shipping and iteration:** You're able to harden systems incrementally, learn, and refine in short cycles rather than waiting for a "perfect" fix
