Senior DevSecOps & Platform Engineer (all genders)
At heyData , we're building an AI-powered compliance platform that helps organizations simplify information security, data protection, and regulatory compliance. By combining automation and AI, we enable companies to stay compliant with frameworks such as ISO 27001, GDPR, NIS2, and the EU AI Act—more efficiently and with less manual effort.
About the Role
We're looking for a Senior DevSecOps & Platform Engineer to take ownership of our cloud infrastructure and drive its reliability, security, and scalability.
In this hands-on senior individual contributor role, you'll define the technical direction of our platform, lead infrastructure initiatives from concept to implementation, and work closely with Engineering, Product, AI, and Security teams. You'll identify opportunities for improvement, solve complex infrastructure challenges, and establish best practices that enable teams to build and ship securely at scale.
We're looking for someone who takes ownership, thrives in ambiguous environments, and enjoys turning ideas into pragmatic, high-impact solutions.
