DevSecOps Engineer Position Description

At CGI, we are transforming how organisations deliver secure, scalable digital services, and our DevSecOps Engineers are at the heart of that change. In this role, you will design and operate resilient cloud platforms that power critical systems, embedding security and automation into every stage of the lifecycle. We combine deep engineering expertise with a culture of collaboration and accountability, enabling you to shape DevOps and SRE best practice while driving measurable impact for our clients.

Here, your ideas are valued, your ownership makes a difference, and your growth is supported as you help us deliver innovative, high-value solutions across modern cloud environments. CGI was recognised in the Sunday Times Best Places to Work List 2025 and has been named a UK 'Best Employer' by the Financial Times.

We offer a competitive salary, excellent pension, private healthcare, plus a share scheme (3.5% + 3.5% matching) which makes you a CGI Partner not just an employee. We are committed to inclusivity, building a genuinely diverse community of tech talent and inspiring everyone to pursue careers in our sector, including our Armed Forces, and are proud to hold a Gold Award in recognition of our support of the Armed Forces Corporate Covenant.

Join us and you'll be part of an open, friendly community of experts. We'll train and support you in taking your career wherever you want it to go. Due to the secure nature of the programme, you will need to hold UK Security Clearance or be eligible to go through this clearance.

Your future duties and responsibilities

• Design & Secure Cloud Platforms across hyperscalers
• Develop & Optimise CI/CD pipelines and deployment workflows
• Automate & Provision Infrastructure using IaC tooling
• Implement & Enhance containerisation and virtual environments
• Embed & Advance observability (monitoring, logging, alerting)
• Lead & Champion DevSecOps and SRE best practice
• Mentor & Support engineers

Required qualifications to be successful in this role

To succeed, you will bring hands-on experience in DevSecOps or SRE roles within modern cloud environments, alongside strong scripting and automation expertise. You will be comfortable working across infrastructure, platforms and pipelines, with a proactive approach to security, reliability and continuous improvement.

Essential qualifications:

• You should have hands-on experience with at least one major cloud provider (AWS, Azure, GCP or Oracle Cloud)
• Strong proficiency in CI/CD, Infrastructure as Code and containerisation (e.g. Docker, Kubernetes)
• Proven ability to build and maintain automated deployment pipelines
• Experience with monitoring, logging and alerting solutions
• Strong scripting skills in Python, Bash, Go or similar
• Demonstrable experience embedding security within DevOps practices
• Proven ability to collaborate effectively and mentor others

Together, as owners, let's turn meaningful insights into action. Life at CGI is rooted in ownership, teamwork, respect and belonging. Here, you'll reach your full potential because... You are invited to be an owner from day 1 as we work together to bring our Dream to life. That's why we call ourselves CGI Partners rather than employees.

We benefit from our collective success and actively shape our company's strategy and direction. Your work creates value. You'll develop innovative solutions and build relationships with teammates and clients while accessing global capabilities to scale your ideas, embrace new opportunities, and benefit from expansive industry and technology expertise.

You'll shape your career by joining a company built to grow and last. You'll be supported by leaders who care about your health and well-being and provide you with opportunities to deepen your skills and broaden your horizons. That same commitment to fairness extends to how we use technology. To support our recruitment team, AI tools may be used to help assess applications though they never replace human judgement. All hiring decisions remain entirely in the hands of our recruitment professionals.

Come join our team-one of the largest IT and business consulting services firms in the world.
