Senior DevSecOps Engineer

Delaplex is a technology consulting and supply chain solutions company founded in 2008. They are seeking a Senior DevSecOps Engineer to define reference architecture for on-prem deployments, automate server provisioning, and enhance security and monitoring across environments.

Responsibilities:

• Define a standard reference architecture for customer on-prem deployments, with a small set of supported variations
• Automate server provisioning end-to-end — for self-hosted Dev/QA servers and for customer production environments — replacing today’s fully manual server setup with Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform/Ansible/PowerShell DSC or equivalent)
• Automate environment-to-environment software upgrades (application + SQL Server + MongoDB + RabbitMQ) so that a release flows Dev → QA → customer production via pipelines, not manual steps
• Own Azure DevOps Pipelines for build, test, scan, package, release, and rollback
• Drive containerization maturity (Docker, Docker Compose, Kubernetes) and decide the right footprint for our product
• Bring creative automation ideas (self-service portals, ChatOps, GitOps, golden images, one-click installers for customer sites) and put governance around them — change control, approvals, audit trails, environment policies, role-based access
• Stand up monitoring and alerting across Dev, QA, and customer production (CPU/memory, service uptime, server health, DB growth, RabbitMQ queues)
• Establish a security audit program: vulnerability scanning, SAST/DAST/SCA, image scanning, secrets management, server/DB/broker hardening
• Transition DevOps to a ticketing-based service model with defined SLAs; enforce structured intake; reduce direct-message-driven work
• Translate customer needs into technical requirements; act as the senior customer-facing technical voice for DevSecOps
• Hire, mentor, and lead the UK and India seniors; act in an interim product/strategy capacity until the team structure matures

Requirements:

• 10+ years in DevOps / DevSecOps / Infrastructure, with 3+ years at architect or lead level
• Hands-on Azure DevOps Pipelines
• Deploying and operating Spring Boot (Java) microservices in production
• Strong Windows Server administration and PowerShell
• Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform, Ansible, PowerShell DSC, or similar) for automated server provisioning
• SQL Server, MongoDB, RabbitMQ — automated deployments, upgrades, backups
• Containerization: Docker, Docker Compose, Kubernetes
• Security: vulnerability mgmt, SAST/DAST/SCA, image scanning, secrets vaults, hardening, audit readiness
• Monitoring/observability: Prometheus/Grafana, Azure Monitor, ELK, Datadog, or equivalent
• Setting up ticket-based service models and SLAs (Azure Boards, Jira Service Management, ServiceNow)
• Customer-facing experience and willingness to travel
• Built a DevSecOps function from scratch
• Experience delivering enterprise software into on-prem customer environments
• Certifications: AZ-400, CKA/CKS, CISSP
