Senior DevSecOps / Application Security Engineer

Eliassen Group

Job Description

Job Description

Description:

Onsite in Fenton Cary, NC

We are seeking a Senior DevSecOps / Application Security Engineer to join a modern Information Security organization supporting rapidly evolving development environments. This role sits at the intersection of application security, developer enablement, and automation, with a strong mandate to embed security directly into how software and AI-driven solutions are built, tested, and deployed.

As a senior technical contributor, you will focus on securing code, development pipelines, and AI-enabled applications while helping establish governance and standardized security controls across teams that are increasingly writing and deploying their own code. This is a hands-on role for someone who can both build and advise—balancing strong security controls with developer efficiency and delivery velocity.

This is a full-time, permanent opportunity, offering a competitive salary and comprehensive benefits package. Qualified applicants must be willing and able to work on a w2 basis.

Salary: $122,000 - $145,000/ yr. w2 + benefits

Responsibilities:
  • Embed security controls into application development workflows , CI/CD pipelines, and code repositories
  • Support and guide developers on secure coding practices and secure build processes
  • Drive automation and policy-as-code to enforce security requirements consistently
  • Secure modern, AI-enabled applications and assess risks introduced by AI in development workflows
  • Improve security prioritization and efficiency through automation and intelligent tooling
  • Design and implement secure CI/CD pipelines with automated controls such as:
    • Static and Dynamic Application Security Testing (SAST/DAST)
    • Software Composition Analysis (SCA)
    • Secrets scanning and code integrity checks
    • Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) and container image scanning
  • Secure code repositories by enforcing:
    • Branch protections and access controls
    • Commit signing, code integrity, and version control governance
  • Prevent insecure code usage or data exposure (e.g., sensitive data pushed to public repositories)
  • Implement and maintain policy-as-code frameworks to enforce security standards automatically
  • Secure the software supply chain, including:
    • Dependency validation
    • SBOM generation
    • Validation of third-party and purchased software
  • Establish standardized security guardrails as more teams begin building and deploying code
  • Ensure data is encrypted at rest and handled securely across development environments
  • Partner with identity and data protection teams to strengthen:
    • Identity and access controls (IAM)
    • Data Loss Prevention (DLP) practices within development workflows
  • Evaluate risks introduced by AI in software development and application design
  • Help define and implement controls for secure AI-driven applications
  • Leverage AI to enhance security monitoring, prioritization, or automation
  • Interest in candidates who can write code and potentially build secure prompting or automation solutions
Experience Requirements:
  • 7+ years of experience in DevSecOps, application security, security engineering, or platform engineering
  • Experience with cloud-native and modern development environments, including containers and infrastructure-as-code
  • Strong scripting or automation experience (e.g., Python, PowerShell, Bash)
  • Proven ability to translate security requirements into scalable, automated technical controls
  • Practical experience with repository platforms such as GitHub, GitLab, Azure DevOps, or Bitbucket and related security governance.
  • Deep experience with containers (Docker), Kubernetes, and IaC tools including Terraform, ARM, and AWS CloudFormation.
  • Strong understanding of software supply chain security, dependency management, and SBOM practices.
  • Experience implementing policy-as-code using Azure Policy, AWS Config, OPA, or similar tools.
  • Proficiency with scripting and automation such as Python, PowerShell, and Bash and DevOps tooling like Jenkins, GitHub Actions, and Azure Pipelines.
  • Strong understanding of SDLC and operationalizing controls in engineering environments.

Requires: Strong hands-on experience securing:

  • Code repositories (e.g., GitHub, GitLab, Azure DevOps)
  • CI/CD pipelines and developer platforms
  • Approximately 5% travel.
Education Requirements:

Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Security, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience)
