  • Embedding security (DevSecOps) into every stage of development.
  • Partnering with product, security, and engineering teams to deliver scalable, resilient systems.
  • Creating high-performing infrastructure for financial services products (credit, payments, and transactions).

�� What we’re looking for

  • Strong DevOps background (2–10+ years).
  • Expertise in automation, IaC, and scripting.
  • Experience with Azure and Unix/Linux.
  • Deep knowledge of networking, cybersecurity, and SQL.
  • Solid Java development exposure.
  • Financial services experience (bonus).
  • A collaborator at heart — this team solves problems together, often in-person at Rosebank offices.
  • A degree in computer science or equivalent experience.

�� Why this role?
