DevSecOps Engineer

Working at Transurban is different; it’s a place where you can see the benefits of your work play out in real life, every day. We create city-sized solutions—building and operating safer, smarter, and more sustainable roads—to solve pressing transport challenges that are slowing cities down.  

About the role  
  

We're seeking a DevSecOps Engineer to champion secure development practices across our whole organisation and reduce security risks throughout the software development lifecycle. 

You'll join a high-performing team, who prioritise excellence, collaboration, and innovation in delivering secure solutions that support business agility and resilience. 

As our DevSecOps Engineer, you'll contribute to lasting and positive changes that shape the future of our cities and communities. It's meaningful, challenging and exciting work. 

Day-to-day, you will:  
  

• Build, integrate and maintain security tools into CI/CD pipelines to ensure continuous security validation. 

• Lead and operate our Security Champions network across the organization. 

• Collaborate with development teams to remediate vulnerabilities and implement effective controls. 

• Provide security consultation to projects, ensuring alignment with best practices and compliance requirements. 

• Identify and drive opportunities to improve application security posture leveraging guardrails and automation. 
    

This role will suit someone with a curious mind and transferrable skills and experiences, including:  
  

• Experience designing and securing applications in cloud-native architectures (AWS, Azure, GCP). 

• Strong programming skills (Python, Bash, Go) and infrastructure-as-code experience (Terraform, CloudFormation). 

• Deep expertise in application security concepts (IAM, SSL/TLS, WAF, PCI-DSS, OWASP Top 10). 

• Practical experience integrating security into DevOps workflows using tools like Jenkins, GitHub Actions, and Artifactory. 

• Excellent communication skills with the ability to translate technical risks into business-relevant language. 

• Cloud and application security certifications (e.g., AWS Security Specialty, Azure Security Engineer) are highly regarded and demonstrate your commitment to continuous learning.  

If you meet some of these requirements, but not all, we encourage you to submit your application.  

With a career at Transurban, you’ll enjoy a range of benefits, including:   
  

• A range of flexible working and leave options, including the option to purchase an additional six weeks of leave each year. 

• 16 weeks paid parental leave (regardless of gender or carer status), with no waiting period, with Superannuation paid during unpaid leave as well. 

• Learning and development opportunities to support your career interests. 

• Health and wellbeing support—access to Headspace and our EAP program, wellness facilities, and more.  

• Share offers and insurance benefits.  

• Social activities, community give-back programs and paid volunteer days. 

We offer a range of flexible working and leave options, so you can balance your work and life commitments and interests. Have a conversation with us about how this could work for you.   
  

We embrace diversity with a foundation of safety, wellbeing and inclusion; where everyone belongs. We treat everyone with fairness, consideration and respect, regardless of gender, gender identity, marital or family status, sexual orientation, age, ethnicity, religious beliefs, cultural or socio-economic background, perspective, and experience – whether they work for us or not. We want to ensure everyone feels comfortable and safe to express ideas, questions and concerns.
