As the market leader in both data resilience and data security posture management, Veeam is built for the convergence of identity, data, security, and AI risk. Headquartered in Seattle with offices in more than 30 countries, Veeam protects over 550,000 customers worldwide, who trust Veeam to keep their businesses running. Join us as we go fearlessly forward together, growing, learning, and making a real impact for some of the world’s biggest brands.\nAbout the Role\nWe are seeking an exceptional Senior Director, DevSecOps to own the strategy, organization, and execution behind the infrastructure that powers our data security platform, which processes billions of data events per day across hundreds of enterprise clouds. You will lead a global organization of DevSecOps, SRE, and platform engineers and set the technical direction for how we build, deploy, secure, and operate the platform across AWS, Azure, and GCP. You’ll turn infrastructure into a product, security into a default, and reliability into a measurable promise to customers, so that when a Fortune 500 company onboards petabytes of data, the platform scales without manual work, security exceptions, or customer impact. Every architectural decision, security policy, and hiring choice your organization makes will shape whether enterprises can trust us with their most sensitive data. You’ll build an organization that thinks like an attacker, plans for breach, keeps the blast radius small, and still ships fast enough to win the market, with the scope to shape strategy, the budget to execute it, and the accountability to own the outcome.\nWhat You’ll Do\nOrganizational Leadership: Build, scale, and lead a high-performing global DevSecOps organization, including managers and senior individual contributors across time zones, and own hiring, career development, performance management, and succession planning\nStrategy & Roadmap: Define and run a multi-year infrastructure, platform, and security-automation roadmap aligned with business growth, product launches, and regional expansion\n Security & Compliance Ownership: Partner with the CISO and GRC to ensure infrastructure meets and continuously proves SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, GDPR, and other regulatory and customer requirements, while driving zero-trust architecture, least-privilege access, secrets management, and supply-chain security (SBOM, image signing, dependency scanning) across every environment\nReliability & SLOs: Set SLOs and error budgets for production services and hold the organization accountable to them, owning the incident management program, including on-call design, escalation paths, blameless postmortems, and closure of corrective actions\n Platform Engineering: Lead the evolution of the internal developer platform, including golden paths, reusable Terraform and CloudFormation modules, GitOps pipelines (ArgoCD, Spinnaker, GitHub Actions), and self-service environments that shorten engineering lead time\nMulti-Cloud & Multi-Region: Own the architecture and operating model for running the platform consistently across AWS, Azure, and GCP and across regional and sovereign deployments, including data residency, tenant isolation, disaster recovery, and capacity planning\nCloud Financial Management: Own a multi-million-dollar cloud and tooling budget and run a FinOps practice covering cost visibility by tenant and service, forecasting, commitment and Spot strategy, and architectural changes that bend the cost curve without compromising reliability\nCross-Functional Partnership: Work as a peer to Engineering, Product, Security, Customer Success, and Support leadership, translating business priorities into infrastructure investments and presenting technical risk in business terms\nExecutive & Customer Communication: Report on reliability, security posture, cost, and delivery metrics to the executive team, and represent the platform in strategic customer security reviews, audits, and escalations\nVendor & Tooling Strategy: Evaluate, select, and manage vendors for observability, security, CI/CD, and cloud services, negotiating contracts and consolidating tooling where it reduces cost or complexity\nIntegration & Change Leadership: Lead large-scale infrastructure changes such as platform migrations, region launches, environment consolidation, and post-acquisition integration, with minimal disruption to customers and engineering teams\nWhat You’ll Bring\n15+ years in software engineering, infrastructure, SRE, or DevSecOps, including at least 7 years in people leadership and 3+ years leading managers in a SaaS or cloud-native company\nA track record of running production infrastructure at significant scale (multi-region, multi-cloud, high-volume data processing) with clear, measurable gains in reliability, security, and delivery speed\nHands-on technical depth in Kubernetes, infrastructure as code (Terraform or CloudFormation), GitOps CI/CD, Linux, and networking, with the credibility to challenge architecture decisions on their technical merits\nDeep understanding of cloud security architecture, identity and access management, network segmentation, vulnerability management, and secure SDLC, with experience leading an organization through external audits and certifications\nExperience implementing SLO/SLI frameworks, incident management programs, and observability strategies (metrics, logs, traces) using tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, or Datadog\nProven ownership and optimization of a large cloud budget, with documented cost reductions or efficiency gains\nExperience growing teams through hypergrowth or transformation, defining team topologies and operating models, and building an engineering culture of ownership, automation, and blameless learning\nExcellent written and verbal communication, with the ability to brief a board-level audience on risk and a principal engineer on a design flaw in the same day\nBachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent experience\nBonus Skills\nWorking knowledge of operating relational (Postgres), NoSQL (MongoDB, Elasticsearch/OpenSearch), and graph (Neo4j, Neptune) databases at scale, including backup, recovery, and performance tradeoffs\nExperience leading infrastructure through post-acquisition integration or platform consolidation\nBackground running regional or sovereign cloud deployments with strict data residency requirements\nLI- VS1\nWhat you'll get\nUnlimited paid time off, 12 paid holidays including 4 global VeeaMe Days for self-care and 24 paid volunteer hours annually through Veeam Cares\nPaid parental
