Job description

We are seeking a Senior DevSecOps Engineer to design and automate an enterprise dual?stack secrets management ecosystem built on CyberArk (PAM) and HashiCorp Vault (machine/app secrets). This role is responsible for transforming the platforms into a fully automated, highly available, “platform-as-a-service” capability, with zero/low-touch operations for: This candidate will operate at the intersection of DevOps, SRE, and Security Engineering, building automation-first solutions that scale across multi-cloud, hybrid environments, and CI/CD ecosystems. Key Responsibilities 1) Dual-Platform Strategy Integration Own the operating model for dual vaulting platforms, clearly delineating: CyberArk ? human privileged access (PAM) Vault ? application, dynamic, and non-human secrets Support enterprise initiatives for centralized secrets management across cloud and on-prem platforms.

2) Full Automation of Day-2 Operations

Eliminate manual operations by engineering: Automated patching pipelines Automated version upgrades Lifecycle workflows (certificate rotation, secret rotation, platform hardening)

Build reusable frameworks for: Safe maintenance windows Automated rollback Continuous compliance validation Standardize Day-2 operational patterns, runbooks, and platform engineering playbooks.

3) Upgrade, Patching, and Release Engineering Design and implement enterprise-grade upgrade strategies, including: Rolling upgrades (HA clusters) Blue/green or parallel cluster deployments Controlled failover patterns

Introduce automated validation: Pre-checks (dependency/version compatibility) Post-checks (cluster health, secret access integrity)

Ensure Vault and CyberArk platforms remain aligned to: Security patch baselines Enterprise upgrade cadences

4) Infrastructure as Code Pipeline Engineering Build and maintain modular IaC for secrets platform deployment and lifecycle: CyberArk components (Vault, CPM, PSM, connectors) Vault clusters (HA raft, DR, auto-unseal)

Develop CI/CD pipelines to: Build, validate, and promote platform changes Securely inject and manage secrets in pipelines (DevSecOps alignment) Integrate secrets management securely into CI/CD systems, avoiding credential sprawl.

5) Observability, Health, and Self-Healing

Define operational health KPIs for both platforms, including: Vault: seal/unseal state, raft performance, resource utilization, transaction latency CyberArk: component availability, credential lifecycle success, access workflows

Implement: Automated health checks and drift detection Event-driven remediation End-to-end alerting integrated into enterprise monitoring tools Primary SkillDevOps Desired Skills, * Ensure all automation aligns with:

  • Audit requirements
  • Security best practice
  • IaC methodology
  • Infrastructure as Code (IaC) CICD: Terraform, Ansible * GitOps workflows version control (Git) * API automation: REST, CLI, SDK-based orchestration * Vault platforms: HashiCorp Vault, CyberArk, cloud secret managers

Requirements

Do you have experience in Version control systems?, * Experience building “Vault as a Service” / PAM as a platform capabilities

  • Knowledge of:
  • Dynamic secrets / short-lived credentials
  • JIT access models
  • Token-based or OIDC-based auth patterns
  • Experience with:
  • Kubernetes / container platforms
  • Multi-cloud environments (AWS, Azure)
  • Familiarity with CyberArk automation tooling (e.g., Ansible-based approaches) ?

Required Skills

  • 6) High Availability, Resilience, and DR
  • Engineer resilient, high uptime architectures for secrets platforms:
  • Multi-zone / multi-region deployment patterns
  • Disaster recovery and failover automation
  • Validate resilience continuously via:
  • Failure injection
  • Controlled DR drills
  • Recovery validation pipelines
  • 7) Security, Governance, and Compliance
  • Implement strong governance patterns:
  • Segregation of duties (admin vs usage)
  • Approval workflows and just-in-time access
  • Least-privilege enforcement
