About the Role

As a DevSecOps Engineer within our TCS division, you will serve as a vital guardian of our network and application security posture.

From setting up and monitoring proxy servers and firewalls to performing rigorous penetration testing and security code reviews, you will ensure our systems remain secure against sophisticated threats. You will also collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to develop automated security frameworks, leveraging scripting languages and open-source solutions to replace manual tasks and enhance efficiency.

Hiring Process
