Devsecops Consultant - Part-Time

Role: Devsecops Consultant

JD:

What You Will Be Working On
1.Infrastructure Architecture & Highly Portable Systems
● Cloud Infrastructure: Design, harden, and operate enterprise Kubernetes (EKS)
clusters on GCC+.
● Portable Architecture: Own the infrastructure design with a strict emphasis on
portability. Configuration management, state, and workloads must be architected to allow
easy porting across different Kubernetes environments without platform lock-in.
● Platform Deployment: Deploy, optimize, and manage our core enterprise open-source
IRM platform using Helm charts, ensuring 24/7 high availability, multi-zone resilience,
and self-healing capabilities for the Singpass pilot.
2.Backend & Custom Tooling (Strict Golang Ecosystem)
● Systems Programming: Lead the design and development of all internal backend
services, custom SRE automation, DevOps pipelines, and system administration tooling.
● Strict Ecosystem Constraint: All backend code, APIs, and infrastructure tooling must
be built exclusively in Golang. We maintain a strict zero-tolerance policy for Node.js
(npm/pnpm) within our backend or infrastructure engineering ecosystem.
3.Technical Leadership & Agile Execution
● Team Leadership: Formally mentor and lead a dedicated squad of 5 engineers.
Establish engineering excellence through rigorous code reviews, automated testing
standards, and robust CI/CD practices.
● Agile Governance: Actively drive and participate in core agile ceremonies, including
sprint planning, backlog grooming, and team retrospectives to foster a culture of
continuous improvement.
● Strategic Alignment: Partner closely with the Product Manager and the Singpass
Engineering Manager to scope technical roadmaps and translate mission requirements
into scalable architecture.
4.Strict Engineering Governance
● Documentation as Code: Enforce absolute discipline regarding architectural decisions.
You will be responsible for authoring and reviewing RFCs (Requests for Comments)
and maintaining a rigorous repository of ADRs (Architecture Decision Records) to
ensure all technical choices are transparent, debated, and well-documented.

What We Are Looking For
Technical Mastery
● Expert-level knowledge of Kubernetes (EKS), Helm, Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC), and
highly secure cloud infrastructure environments.
● Proven track record of designing highly portable, platform-agnostic Kubernetes
manifests and configurations.
● Dual-Stack Development Skills:
○ Expert proficiency in Golang for high-integrity backend services, custom
operators, and systems programming.
○ Solid proficiency/oversight capability in TypeScript and pnpm for modern
frontend development.
Engineering Culture & Leadership
● Strict Process Discipline: Deep familiarity and alignment with writing/maintaining
ADRs and RFCs to drive technical consensus.
● Agile Delivery: Proven experience leading engineers within an active sprint
environment and running impactful team retrospectives.
● A proven track record of mentoring mid/junior developers and translating ambiguous
platform requirements into concrete technical designs.
