About the role
- Help configure, maintain, and troubleshoot security tools (e.g., SAST in CI/CD pipelines, vulnerability dashboards, scanners, reporting tools).
- Support rollouts, upgrades, and maintenance of security tooling and integrations.
- Maintain documentation and operational runbooks for the toolstack.
- Contribute to automation scripts and configuration management to support secure baselines (e.g., Ansible playbooks, shell/Python scripts).
- Assist in maintaining and improving hardening scripts and standard configurations for dev and production environments.
- Help standardize operational tasks so security controls are repeatable and easy to deploy at scale.
- Assist in integrating and maintaining SAST / security checks in CI/CD pipelines (including Jenkins).
- Help ensure findings are properly routed, visible, and actionable (e.g., dashboards, ticketing, notifications).
- Support teams in resolving pipeline-related issues related to security tooling and security gates.
- Act as a bridge between Security and IT/DevOps teams on operational topics.
- Assist with applying security standards in development and production environments.
- Support investigations and analysis for operational security topics (e.g., tool alerts, misconfiguration, non-compliance to baseline standards).
Requirements
- Basic understanding of CI/CD and how modern software is delivered (pipelines, build/test stages, deployments).
- Familiarity with Linux fundamentals (files, permissions, processes, logs) and basic networking concepts (DNS, HTTP/S, ports).
- Comfort using Git and collaborating through pull requests.
- Interest in automation and “infrastructure as code” concepts.
- Some exposure to Ansible (or another configuration management / automation tool) is a plus.
- Some familiarity with CI tools like Jenkins is a plus (understanding jobs, pipelines, agents, credentials, etc.).
- Ability to troubleshoot systematically and improve reliability through automation and standardization.
- Strong interest in cybersecurity with a desire to grow in operational security.
- Basic understanding of common security concepts: vulnerability management, least privilege, hardening, secure configuration.
- Awareness of application security topics is a plus (e.g., OWASP, SAST, dependency scanning).
- Ability to work with multiple teams (Security, DevOps, IT, Engineering) and communicate clearly.
- Pragmatic approach: you can balance security requirements with operational constraints.
- Willingness to document and standardize work (runbooks, procedures, FAQs).
