POSITION SUMMARY
Virtuous is hiring a Senior DevSecOps Engineer to strengthen the security posture of our products, cloud infrastructure, and software delivery ecosystem.
Reporting to the Director of IT & Security, you'll partner with Engineering, Cloud Engineering, DevOps, Architecture, and Security teams to build security into the way we design, develop, deploy, and operate software. You'll improve the security of our products and cloud environment by reducing security debt, modernizing security practices, and building secure-by-default solutions through automation and engineering.
This role is embedded within a collaborative DevOps function and is ideal for someone who enjoys solving security problems through code, automation, and engineering rather than manual reviews or gatekeeping. We're looking for an engineer who is naturally curious, challenges conventional approaches, and safely leverages AI-assisted tooling and modern engineering practices to create scalable, high-impact solutions.
RESPONSIBILITIES
SECURITY ENGINEERING & CLOUD SECURITY
- Design, implement, and continuously improve secure Azure cloud architectures, networking, governance, and infrastructure to support scalable, secure-by-default engineering.
- Strengthen cloud security posture through infrastructure hardening, segmentation, secure connectivity patterns, RBAC/PIM, Azure Policy, and automated guardrails.
- Improve security visibility through logging, monitoring, SIEM integrations, detection engineering, and operational security tooling.
- Continuously assess and remediate cloud security risks, inherited infrastructure weaknesses, configuration drift, and operational security gaps.
- Embed security into infrastructure, platforms, and engineering workflows by collaborating with Cloud Engineering and DevOps teams to build secure-by-default solutions.
APPLICATION SECURITY & DEVSECOPS
- Identify and address security risks in application architecture, authentication, APIs, and data flows throughout the product lifecycle.
- Integrate security capabilities into CI/CD pipelines and engineering workflows, including SAST, DAST, dependency scanning, secrets management, software supply-chain security, and policy-based controls.
- Lead threat modeling, architecture reviews, and secure design discussions to identify security risks early in the software development lifecycle.
- Build developer-friendly security guardrails, reusable patterns, and automations that improve security without slowing delivery velocity.
- Drive timely remediation of security findings by enabling engineering teams with practical guidance, automation, and secure-by-default patterns.
SECURITY MODERNIZATION & OPERATIONAL EXCELLENCE
- Lead efforts to reduce security backlog, cloud governance drift, stale permissions, infrastructure weaknesses, technical debt, and operational security risk.
- Balance risk reduction, engineering impact, and business…
