DevSecOps Engineer
Manchester - Hybrid, 3 days a week in the office. Commute from Stockport, Wigan, Bolton, Rochdale, Bury, Sale, Liverpool, Warrington, and Runcorn.
Up to £80,000 + benefits
We're partnered exclusively with a Fintech business in Manchester who’s been building their own SaaS platform for 10 years. As the business has scaled, so has the complexity of their engineering environment – and they’ve reached the point where security needs to be built into every stage of delivery, not bolted on at the end.
They’re hiring a DevSecOps Engineer to sit at that intersection between security and engineering. This isn’t a pure security role, and it’s not a pure DevOps role. It’s for someone who’s genuinely comfortable in both worlds – someone who understands pipelines, infrastructure, and tooling, and knows how to embed security into them without grinding everything to a halt.
You’ll be working with DevOps, Platform, and Security teams to integrate security tooling into CI/CD, automate vulnerability detection, manage cloud security controls, and help engineering teams ship quickly without cutting corners. In a regulated Fintech environment, this role carries real weight.
Key skills needed:
* Hands‑on DevSecOps or Security Engineering experience in a cloud‑native environment
* Strong CI/CD experience – GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, or similar – and the ability to integrate security gates properly
* SAST, DAST, and SCA tooling – Snyk, Checkov, Trivy, Semgrep, or similar
* Infrastructure as Code – Terraform, CloudFormation – and identifying misconfigs before they hit production
* Container and Kubernetes security – image scanning, runtime security, network policies
* Cloud security experience – primarily GCP, with some AWS exposure also useful
* Secret management – HashiCorp Vault, AWS Secrets Manager, or similar
* Knowledge of Fintech compliance requirements – PCI‑DSS, SOC 2, ISO 27001
* Scripting skills – Python, Bash, or similar
* Someone who can translate between security and engineering teams, and is respected by both
This is the highest‑paid role in this hiring round for a reason. They want someone exceptional. If you’re a DevSecOps engineer who’s done with security being treated as a checkbox, and you want to work somewhere that’s actually building it in from day one, this is the one to go for.
