Senior Cloud DevSecOps Engineer
About The Position
At Regions, the Cloud DevSecOps Engineer contributes to the advancement of cloud strategy. The primary focus of this role includes developing, communicating, and implementing robust and secure cloud continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipelines. This role works closely with stakeholders to create fully automated pipelines which support current DevSecOps best practices. As a Senior Cloud DevSecOps Engineer you will spearhead the definition, maintenance, and adoption of “golden path” CI/CD pipeline patterns (templates, reusable stages, policy-as-code guardrails) that teams can consume in self-serviced way. Builds and operates a self-service pipeline platform (developer portal/catalog, scaffolding, versioned templates) that enables teams to onboard new services quickly while meeting security and compliance requirements by default. Establishes standardized DevSecOps controls and automation across pipelines (SAST/DAST/SCA, IaC scanning, SBOM generation, artifact signing, provenance/attestations) with clear exception and risk-acceptance workflows. Partners with application teams to improve developer experience: fast feedback loops, local-to-CI parity, streamlined secrets access, progressive delivery enablement, and opinionated defaults that reduce cognitive load. Defines and tracks pipeline/platform success metrics (lead time, deployment frequency, change failure rate, MTTR, security findings SLA, build performance), and drives continuous improvement through reliability engineering and product-style roadmapping.
