Intro
We’re looking for a DevSecOps Engineer to help us build secure, scalable platforms that
power our digital and operational experiences at Holland & Barrett.
This is a hands-on role where you’ll work at the heart of our engineering ecosystem —
embedding security into everything we build. You’ll collaborate with SRE, Cloud and
Application Security teams to create tools, pipelines and infrastructure that are secure by
design and easy for teams to use.
You’ll help shape how security works at scale — through automation, clear standards and
practical solutions that support engineers to do their best work.

What you’ll be doing
 Design, build and operate secure cloud and platform capabilities
 Embed security controls across the software delivery lifecycle by default
 Build and maintain fast, reliable and secure CI/CD pipelines and reusable components
 Automate security, compliance and operational checks
 Partner with engineering teams to simplify workflows and remove friction
 Contribute to platform architecture, standards and technical direction
 Support a culture of ownership, continuous improvement and pragmatic DevSecOps
practices

What you’ll bring
 Hands-on experience in a DevSecOps, Platform Engineering or Cloud Security role
 Strong understanding of DevSecOps principles, including CI/CD, infrastructure as code
and security automation
 Experience working in AWS environments
 Practical experience with containerised workloads and Kubernetes
 Experience embedding security into developer workflows and platforms
 Confidence working across teams and communicating technical concepts clearly

 A pragmatic mindset, focused on scalable and developer-friendly solutions

Our tech stack
 Cloud & Networking: AWS (multi-account, IAM, VPC, managed services), hybrid
connectivity
 Containers & Orchestration: Docker, Kubernetes (EKS, ECS)
 Infrastructure as Code: OpenTofu, Terragrunt, CloudFormation
 CI/CD: GitLab CI, reusable components, self-hosted runners
 Security & Identity: Microsoft Entra, AWS IAM, OIDC, secrets management, policy-as-
code
 Observability: Logging, metrics and tracing (e.g. Datadog, OpenTelemetry)
 Platform Automation: Declarative configuration and infrastructure management
 Internal Tooling: Python, Go and modern frontend frameworks
 Version Control: Git and code review workflows
We value strong fundamentals over specific tools — if you understand the principles, you’ll
thrive here.

Benefits
 33 days holiday (including bank holidays), plus holiday purchase scheme
 Private medical insurance – single cover
 24/7 Virtual GP access and annual at-home health testing kit
 Employee Assistance Programme and Mental Health First Aiders
 Workplace pension with 5% employer contribution
 Life assurance (2x salary)
 Annual bonus (subject to company and individual performance) up to 10%
 £50 colleague product allowance (after 6 months’ service)
 25% colleague discount plus free delivery on online orders
 Access to cashback and retailer discounts
 Free Wellhub membership with access to gyms, studios and wellbeing apps
 Cycle to Work scheme
