DevSecOps Engineer

DevSecOps Engineer (Remote – APAC / Europe Preferred) Full-Time | Reports to: Head of Platform Engineering

The Opportunity We are working with a high-growth, venture-backed blockchain infrastructure company that is expanding its DevSecOps capability.

This organisation is building foundational infrastructure that enables native digital assets to move beyond passive holding and participate securely across decentralised ecosystems. Its flagship protocol has secured multi-billion USD equivalent in native asset value, alongside a next-generation vault architecture enabling seamless, trust-minimised participation across multiple chains.

The team is globally distributed, composed of experienced protocol researchers, engineers, and ecosystem operators. The culture is fast-moving, ownership-driven, and highly collaborative.

The Profile Our client is seeking a security-focused DevSecOps Engineer who thrives in high-performance environments and enjoys operating across multiple domains.

You will: Bring a strong infrastructure and cloud security background Have experience embedding security practices within DevOps or Platform teams Be confident navigating modern cloud-native architectures Demonstrate accountability and high delivery standards Communicate clearly and collaborate cross-functionally Take a proactive, security-first approach to system design

This role requires someone who builds security into systems from the ground up — not as an afterthought.

Key Responsibilities You will join the DevOps function with a primary mandate of strengthening security posture across infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and production systems.

Security & Governance Implement zero-trust and least-privilege access controls Integrate security tooling and automation into CI/CD pipelines Secure production credentials and cryptographic key material Harden decentralised application frontends against attack vectors Establish and enforce security standards across Git-based workflows Develop threat models for web3-native infrastructure

Platform & Infrastructure Engineering You will also contribute across DevOps, SRE, and Platform initiatives:

Production Readiness & Service Onboarding Build proof-of-concept deployments for blockchain networks and dApps Architect highly available infrastructure environments Lead performance benchmarking and load testing Optimise CDN, DNS, and edge configurations for performance and resilience

Reliability & Operations Implement fine-grained monitoring and alerting Design and validate disaster recovery procedures Participate in on-call rotations and incident response Lead post-incident reviews and system hardening initiatives

Infrastructure Ownership Operate and scale: Kubernetes clusters Bitcoin, Ethereum, Cosmos-SDK, and Zero-Knowledge infrastructure Datastores (Redis, MongoDB, MariaDB) Messaging systems (RabbitMQ) Observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, Sentry)

You will work closely with engineering teams to embed production-grade practices across the organisation.
