Description
Summary:
Seeking a highly skilled engineer to integrate security as a core feature within CI/CD pipelines, automate infrastructure hardening, and drive secure Cloud environments.
Highlights:
1. Opportunity to become an expert in scalable, secure architectures
2. Clear career path to Principal Security Architect or Platform Engineering Leader
3. Direct exposure to cutting-edge Cloud, AI, and Cybersecurity challenges
**Who We Are Looking For:** **The Architects of Secure Velocity**
-----------------------------------------------------------------
You are a highly skilled engineer who sees security as a feature, not an afterthought. Your focus is on eliminating manual processes and hardening the infrastructure.
* **You Are the Security Integrator:** You won't just audit code; you will embed security tools and practices *within* the CI/CD pipeline (SAST, DAST, IAST, image scanning). Your goal is to make security checks mandatory, automated, and invisible to the developers.
* **Master of the Toolchain:** You're obsessed with Infrastructure as Code (IaC), automation, and building highly available, secure Cloud environments (AWS, Azure, or GCP). You know that the best defense is automation.
* **Exponential Growth in Expertise:** This role offers direct exposure to cutting\-edge Cloud, AI, and Cybersecurity challenges. You will quickly become an expert in scalable, secure architectures, driving your career towards **Security Architecture** or **Platform Engineering Leadership**.
**Your Mission:** **Build, Secure, and Automate**
-------------------------------------------------
Your success is measured by the speed of deployment, the stability of the platform, and the absence of critical vulnerabilities.
* **CI/CD Security Automation:** Design, implement, and maintain secure CI/CD pipelines (e.g., GitLab, Jenkins, GitHub Actions), focusing on integrating security tests early and often (*shift left*).
* **Cloud Security Implementation:** Implement and enforce security controls, configurations, and hardening across our Cloud infrastructure using **IaC tools** (Terraform, CloudFormation).
* **Incident Response and Monitoring:** Define and refine security monitoring, alerting, and automated incident response protocols (logging, SIEM integration). You are the first line of defense for the platform.
* **Collaboration with Dev Teams:** Work alongside development teams to define secure coding standards, conduct security training, and evangelize DevSecOps best practices throughout the organization.
**Who You Are:** **The Security\-First Automator**
--------------------------------------------------
You are an engineer who views a slow or insecure process as an immediate problem to be solved with code.
* **Deep Experience:** You have **2–5 years of experience** in DevOps, SRE, or specifically DevSecOps, with a strong background in Cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP).
* **Tooling Ninja:** Expert proficiency with **IaC (Terraform)**, configuration management (Ansible/Puppet), containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), and modern CI/CD tools.
* **Security Savvy:** Solid understanding of security fundamentals, including identity and access management (IAM), network security, encryption, and threat modeling. Certifications (e.g., AWS Security Specialist, CISSP, GCSA) are a major advantage.
* **Automation Obsession:** You believe manual tasks are a risk. You are compelled to write code to solve operational and security challenges.
**What We Offer**
-----------------
A compensation and environment built for high\-performing, specialized engineers.
* **Highly Competitive Salary:** 40K\-60K, with performance bonuses tied to platform security and availability metrics.
* **Advanced Tech Stack:** Direct access to cutting\-edge tools and technologies (AI, advanced Cloud services, specialized security tools). You'll work with the best, to be the best.
* **Strategic Hybrid Model:** Office in Milan (3 days) for deep, collaborative engineering sessions with the Platform and Product teams. 2 flexible days.
* **Career Path to Security Architecture:** This role provides a clear track to becoming a **Principal Security Architect** or **Platform Engineering Leader**, defining the future technological roadmap of the company.
**Selection Process:** **Engineering Rigor**
--------------------------------------------
**We want to see your code, your secure thinking, and your automation philosophy.**
* **Phase 1:** Screening Call (30 minutes)
* **Phase 2:** Technical Deep Dive Interview (1 hour) – *Focus on IaC, CI/CD, and Cloud Security principles.*
* **Phase 3:** Practical Coding/Design Challenge (Take\-home or collaborative session) – **Solve a real\-world DevSecOps scenario.**
* **Phase 4:** Cultural \& Leadership Fit (30 minutes)
Compensation Range: €40K \- €60K
