DevSecOps Engineer

Who We Are NEXT Ventures is where ambition takes shape and momentum becomes movement. As a global platform revolutionising access to performance-based capital, we empower the world's most driven individuals to rise. Through our flagship brand, FundedNext, we empower dreamers to become doers, and potential to turn into performance. With 500+ driven minds across five countries, we power a global rhythm — 220,000+ daily users from 170+ nations, each chasing greatness in their own way. Your Role in Our Mission We're growing our Platform Engineering team and looking for a DevSecOps Engineer who lives and breathes modern DevSecOps and cloud-native practices. You'll help build, automate, secure, and operate the infrastructure behind multiple customer-facing SaaS products running on AWS and Kubernetes, fronted by Cloudflare at the edge. This is a hands-on role for someone who treats infrastructure as code, automates relentlessly, and uses AI tooling to move faster without cutting corners. You'll share ownership of reliability, deployment pipelines, and platform tooling — and have real influence over how we scale as the team and the load grow. How You'll Make An Impact - 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. What You Bring - 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, and have good judgment about where they help and where they don't. - Strong troubleshooting instincts across DNS, CDN, networking, origin, and application layers. - You must demonstrate active, daily use of modern AI agentic workflows — well beyond basic ChatGPT prompts or Copilot autocomplete. We expect fluency with AI coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, or similar), project-level AI configuration (CLAUDE.md, rules files), agentic task delegation, and AI-driven code review. The bar is 5–10x productivity through AI-augmented development. Candidates who are not AI-native in their engineering workflow will not advance. - Deep hands-on Cloudflare experience — WAF custom rules, Workers, Bot Management, or Turnstile. Strong Cloudflare knowledge is a significant advantage and will be prioritized. - Experience operating fintech, trading, or other high-availability / regulated platforms. - EKS-specific production experience (HPA, cluster autoscaling, PDBs, service mesh). Your Journey After Applying - 30-minute HR session with the Talent Acquisition team. - 60-minute technical session with the Platform Squad Lead (hiring manager). - Technical assessment — a hands-on infrastructure / system-design exercise. - Final session with Engineering leadership. Why Join NEXT At NEXT Ventures, performance is more than numbers — it's the pulse that drives innovation and impact. Join us to build and harden the platform that lets a global community of traders perform at their best, every second of every day. Here, infrastructure isn't a back office — it's the engine room of the entire business, and the engineers who run it shape how fast we can grow. Your next chapter in building at scale begins here.
