DevSecOps Principal Engineer

Do you thrive in high-impact leadership roles driving measurable change? Are you passionate about DevSecOps, cloud, and fostering a culture of security within software development? If so, this is the opportunity for you!

You might know Chubb as the world’s largest publicly traded P&C insurer, but we also built a market-leading insurtech from the ground up in only a few years, and we’re continuing our evolution.

We are seeking a seasoned DevSecOps leader to spearhead our global DevSecOps Chapter. This leader will be responsible for building and leading a high-performing team of DevSecOps engineers, drive measurable adoption of CI/CD, Continuous Testing, and security best practices across all application areas. This role is not about nurturing a fledgling team, but about leading a team of established DevOps engineers as part of a global chapter structure. Your primary focus will be on execution and delivering demonstrably increased adoption of DevSecOps principles, not simply evaluating, or recommending tools.

In this role you will:

• Chapter Leadership:
  • Provide strategic direction and vision for the DevSecOps engineering chapter, aligning it with broader organizational goals. 
  • Lead the chapter in defining, implementing, and continuously improving DevSecOps practices across all application domains.

  • Mentor and coach DevOps engineers, helping them develop their technical skills and leadership capabilities. 
  • Recruit top talent to build and expand the DevSecOps engineering team within the chapter.
  • Lead and manage a global DevSecOps Chapter, providing strategic direction and ensuring alignment with overall business goals. 
• DevSecOps Adoption & Transformation:
  • Develop and execute a comprehensive adoption plan for CI/CD, Continuous Testing, and security best practices across all application areas. 
  • Collaborate closely with application development, data, infrastructure, and security teams to break down silos and drive cross-functional ownership of DevSecOps principles. 
  • Define and implement key performance indicators (KPIs) to measure the success of DevSecOps adoption and continuously track progress. 
  • Identify and address roadblocks and bottlenecks hindering DevSecOps implementation. 
  • Champion automation efforts and streamline development workflows to achieve faster release cycles and higher application quality. 
  • Integrate security considerations throughout the entire software development lifecycle.
• Technical Expertise & Innovation:
  • Possess a deep understanding of DevSecOps principles, methodologies, and best practices. 
  • Demonstrate strong proficiency in CI/CD tools and technologies 
  • Maintain a strong understanding of continuous testing methodologies and tools 
  • Possess a solid grasp of cloud platforms and infrastructure as code (IaC) principles. 
  • Stay abreast of emerging trends and technologies in the DevSecOps space and evaluate their potential for improving efficiency and security.

Location:

This role will be based out of Chubb Engineering Center in Hyderabad, India.

Qualifications:

• 15+ years of experience in DevSecOps engineering or a related field. 
• Proven track record of leading and scaling DevSecOps initiatives across large, complex organizations. 
• Deep understanding of CI/CD, continuous testing, and security best practices.
• Extensive experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP, etc.) is highly desirable.
• Excellent communication, collaboration, and leadership skills with the ability to influence and motivate cross-functional teams. 
• Ability to drive measurable results and demonstrate the impact of DevSecOps initiatives. 
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
• A Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field is preferred.

Bonus Points:

• Experience in a senior leadership role, ideally within DevSecOps or a related field. 
• Experience developing and implementing security policies and procedures. 
• Certifications in DevSecOps, cloud platforms, or security frameworks.

Why You’ll Love Working Here:

• Be at the forefront of DevSecOps adoption and innovation. 
• Lead a high-performing team and impact the success of the organization. 
• Work in a collaborative and supportive environment. 
• Make a real difference in securing our software development lifecycle.

This role is focused on execution and achieving measurable results, not just tooling implementation. If you're a results-oriented leader with a passion for DevSecOps, we encourage you to apply!
