Cyber Security DevOps Manager
What This Position Is About – Purpose
This position exists to ensure the consistent security of JTI's Digital Ecosystem (DES) and global applications, including e-commerce solutions. The role is responsible for defining and implementing technical security standards across these platforms, embedding secure DevOps practices into CI/CD environments (e.g., Azure DevOps, GitLab, GitHub), and protecting applications from internal and external threats while promoting shift-left security practices throughout the software development lifecycle.

As part of the Cyber Security Centre, this role contributes to the delivery of high-quality, cost-effective security services across JTI's global infrastructure and application landscape—including security architecture, design, innovation, assurance, service delivery, and SOC operations.

The position also drives the adoption of security tools and best practices, conducts threat assessments, and partners closely with engineering, product, and operations teams to ensure the secure design, development, and deployment of cloud-based and mobile solutions. It requires a strong foundation in cloud and container security, Secure SDLC, application security tooling (e.g., SAST, DAST, SCA), and secure coding principles, with a particular focus on Azure environments.

Ultimately, this role is critical to maintaining a secure, compliant, and resilient digital environment aligned with corporate and industry security standards.

• Ensure that tools are functioning properly, with regular updates and maintenance to keep them current
• Monitor CI/CD environments for security threats, running regular security scans and audits
• Assist in generating reports on security findings, tracking resolution progress, and ensuring transparency in security posture

Security Awareness & Training

• Contribute to security awareness initiatives within development teams, promoting secure coding practices
• Educate teams on common vulnerabilities and industry best practices to enhance overall security knowledge

Governance

• Ensure adherence to security standards, frameworks (e.g. OWASP, NIST, ISO, PCI DSS), and JTI security policies
