About the Role
NEXT Ventures seeks a hands-on DevSecOps Engineer to build, automate, secure, and operate cloud-native infrastructure on AWS and Kubernetes. You will own CI/CD pipelines, manage Cloudflare edge services, and embed security into the platform.
Key Skills for This Role
Responsibilities
- Build and operate cloud native infrastructure on AWS using infrastructure as code
- Own and improve CI/CD pipelines — making deployments faster, safer, and more self service for product engineering teams
- Run and harden Kubernetes (EKS) workloads: scaling, resource management, observability, and cluster health
- Manage edge, CDN, and security through Cloudflare — DNS, WAF, rate limiting, and DDoS protection
- Embed security into the platform — secrets management, least privilege IAM, and shift left practices baked into pipelines
- Leverage AI tooling (coding assistants, automation, ops copilots) to accelerate delivery, reduce toil, and improve quality
- Participate in a shared on call rotation with solid runbooks and blameless post incident reviews
- Continuously reduce manual toil through automation and better tooling
Requirements
- 3–5 years of hands on experience in DevOps or Infrastructure engineering
- Strong command of DevOps practices and tooling — CI/CD, version control (Git), automated testing/deployment, and configuration management
- Solid cloud native experience: containers (Docker), orchestration (Kubernetes), and a major cloud provider (AWS strongly preferred)
- Proficiency with infrastructure as code (Terraform, CloudFormation, Pulumi, or similar)
- Scripting/automation ability in Python, Bash, or Go
- Security aware engineering — secrets management, least privilege IAM, and shift left security baked into pipelines
- Edge / CDN / WAF experience — managing DNS, WAF, and DDoS protection at the edge (Cloudflare strongly preferred)
- AI efficient mindset — you actively use AI/LLM tools to boost productivity and problem solving
- Strong troubleshooting instincts across DNS, CDN, networking, origin, and application layers
- Deep hands on Cloudflare experience — WAF custom rules, Workers, Bot Management, or Turnstile (significant advantage)
- Experience operating fintech, trading, or other high availability / regulated platforms
- EKS specific production experience (HPA, cluster autoscaling, PDBs, service mesh)
