Recruitment Consultant @ Experis Scotland

We’re working with a cloud team transitioning to a “you build it, you run it” model - and we’re looking for a DevSecOps Engineer to help make that shift successful.

You’ll focus on building secure, scalable AWS infrastructure using Terraform and CloudFormation, improving CI/CD pipelines, and creating reusable tooling that enables development teams to deploy safely and efficiently.

This role sits at the intersection of cloud, security, and enablement - not pen testing. You'll help roll out security alerting, support on-call readiness, and advise dev teams on real-world threats and secure patterns.

• Strong AWS and Terraform/CloudFormation experience
• Solid grasp of cloud security threats and mitigations
• Experience improving or building CI/CD pipelines
• Comfortable supporting and training dev teams
• Practical, hands-on approach

This is a contract role - rates are flexible.
