DevSecOps Consultant
  * Sheffield (3 days per week onsite)

We're partnering with a leading financial services client to appoint a DevSecOps Consultant to drive secure engineering practices across large-scale, cloud-based platforms.
This role is ideal for someone who has come from a hands-on DevSecOps Engineering background and has since transitioned into architecture/design and advisory, while still retaining strong technical depth.
Key Responsibilities:
  * Define and implement secure architecture patterns across engineering platforms (CI/CD, build systems, runtime environments)
  * Conduct security assessments, threat modelling, and gap analysis across platforms and pipelines
  * Develop and embed DevSecOps best practices, including secure pipeline design and automated controls
  * Establish and enforce security baselines using policy-as-code
  * Build and deliver security roadmaps, prioritising risk and regulatory requirements
  * Partner with engineering and platform teams to remediate vulnerabilities and improve security posture
  * Act as a trusted advisor to senior stakeholders, translating technical risks into business impact
Key Requirements:
  * Proven background in hands-on DevSecOps Engineering, now operating in a design/architecture-focused role
  * Strong experience across both AWS and GCP (essential)
  * Deep understanding of CI/CD pipelines, build tools, artifact repositories, and developer platforms
  * Expertise in secure software delivery, vulnerability management, and platform security
  * Experience with threat modelling, security frameworks, and maturity assessments
  * Strong knowledge of application security, network security, and cloud security principles
  * Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills
Desirable:
  * Experience in financial services or regulated environments
  * Knowledge of Kubernetes and container security
  * Familiarity with supply chain security, SBOM, and secure development practices
  * Relevant certifications (eg CISSP, CISM, CCSP)
This is a key role focused on shaping and embedding secure-by-design engineering practices across a complex, enterprise environment, with strong influence across both technology and security functions.
