A Lead DevSecOps Engineer role just opened in Alkapuri, Vadodara. Full-time, on-site, and the pay is serious: ₹2,20,500 a month, among the higher figures you'll find for a cybersecurity-adjacent lead role in the city.
The skill set here sits at the intersection of development pipelines and security practice. You need real experience integrating security checks directly into CI/CD workflows, not bolting them on after the fact. Vulnerability scanning comes up constantly; scripting ties most of the automation together; and comfort with at least one major cloud platform is expected, since almost nothing in this role runs purely on-premises anymore.
- CI/CD security integration
- Vulnerability scanning
- Scripting for automating security checks and remediation
- Cloud platforms, hands-on rather than theoretical
Day-to-day, expect to assess systems for weaknesses before an attacker or an auditor finds them, and then put protective controls in place once something's flagged. When an incident actually happens, you're pulled into response directly rather than hearing about it secondhand, and part of the lead's job is turning what's learned from that incident into a permanent fix rather than a one-time patch. Recommending process and tooling improvements is a regular part of the role too, not an occasional side project squeezed in between fires.
Getting hired here takes 132 months of relevant experience and a bachelor's degree, most naturally one with real grounding in cybersecurity or IT. A security certification is expected on top of that, with CEH or CompTIA Security+ named as the most commonly accepted options. Given the lead-level scope of this role, a candidate showing up with only the bare certification and no real incident response experience would likely struggle in the interview, regardless of paperwork.
A handful of additional skills would matter to whoever's reviewing applications for this one. Cloud-specific security certifications, whether AWS- or Azure-focused, carry real weight given how central cloud platforms already are to this role. Container security experience, particularly around Docker and Kubernetes, matters more each year as more pipelines run containerized workloads by default. Familiarity with infrastructure-as-code tools like Terraform, viewed specifically through a security lens rather than just deployment automation, is another strong signal for a lead-level hire.
Compensation extends past the base salary. Health insurance is included, paid time off is standard, and performance-linked bonuses form a real part of total pay rather than an occasional bonus round. Naukri Mitra also lists relocation assistance and accommodation support for this listing, since the role is on-site and DevSecOps talent at this seniority isn't always local to Vadodara.
- Health insurance
- Paid time off
- Performance-linked bonuses
- Relocation assistance for candidates moving to Vadodara
- Accommodation support during the move
Alkapuri sits among Vadodara's more established commercial areas, and devsecops engineer jobs in Vadodara are still relatively uncommon compared to general software or QA roles across the city. That scarcity is part of why the pay here runs as high as it does, and it's worth factoring in if a candidate is weighing this against devsecops engineer jobs for experienced professionals elsewhere in Gujarat.
The DevSecOps engineer salary in Vadodara per month for this listing sits well above typical mid-level pay in the region, which aligns with both the certification requirement and the lead-level responsibility attached. Candidates who meet the experience, education, and certification bar above and can speak to real incident response and pipeline security work should apply directly through the listing.
