About the Role
Were looking for a DevSecOps Engineer (Embedded / Edge) to integrate security best practices throughout the development and deployment lifecycle of software running on resource-constrained, multi-architecture environments.
Youll design and maintain secure, automated CI / CD pipelines, build Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) for hybrid and edge systems, and implement comprehensive security scanning and observability frameworks.
This is a hands-on role ideal for an engineer who understands both embedded systems and modern DevSecOps principles, ensuring systems are secure, scalable, and compliant from the ground up.
Responsibilities

- Infrastructure & Configuration Management Develop and manage Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) for hybrid cloud and edge environments using tools like Terraform.
- Automation Automate build processes, security scanning, and compliance validation to ensure efficient, secure software delivery.
- Security Testing Implement automated testing frameworks including unit, integration, and security tests (SAST, DAST, dependency scanning).
- Security Monitoring & Observability Build monitoring, logging, and tracing systems to detect anomalies and potential vulnerabilities in real time.
- Vulnerability Management Continuously monitor for vulnerabilities and coordinate remediation across the full software lifecycle.
