About this role:

We are seeking a Lead Engineer to own and evolve the Checkmarx application security scanning platform at enterprise scale. This role blends Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) , platform automation , and DevSecOps enablement , ensuring Checkmarx remains highly available, scalable, secure, and deeply integrated into CI/CD pipelines.

The Lead Engineer will act as the technical authority for Checkmarx, driving reliability, performance, automation, upgrades, and cloud/container modernization while partnering with Application Security, DevOps, and Engineering teams.

Key Responsibilities

Platform Ownership & Reliability (SRE)

• Own end‑to‑end reliability, availability, and performance of the Checkmarx SAST platform across non‑prod, prod, and BCP environments

• Define and manage SLIs, SLOs, error budgets , and operational KPIs for scanning throughput, queue latency, and platform health

• Lead incident response , root cause analysis (RCA), and permanent remediation for platform outages or scan failures

• Proactively identify capacity, scaling, and performance bottlenecks (engines, managers, DB, storage, network)

Automation & Engineering Excellence

• Design and implement automation for provisioning, configuration, scaling, upgrades, and maintenance of Checkmarx components

• Build Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using tools such as Terraform, Ansible, or equivalent

• Automate routine operational tasks (engine lifecycle, scan queue tuning, data retention, index maintenance, backups)

• Reduce toil by converting manual operational work into resilient, self‑healing automation

DevSecOps & CI/CD Integration

• Own and enhance Checkmarx integrations with CI/CD platforms (GitHub, Jenkins, Azure DevOps, Harness, etc.)

• Ensure seamless developer experience with pipeline‑based security scanning and fast feedback loops

• Partner with Application Security teams to improve scan performance, false‑positive reduction, and adoption

Observability & Monitoring

• Implement and maintain full‑stack observability (metrics, logs, alerts, dashboards) using tools such as Splunk, Prometheus, Grafana, AppDynamics, etc.

• Build actionable alerts to detect scan backlog growth, engine saturation, DB/storage issues, and platform degradation

• Drive proactive monitoring rather than reactive firefighting

Modernization & Continuous Improvement

• Lead platform upgrades , hotfixes, and vendor‑recommended lifecycle management

• Drive containerization and cloud‑readiness initiatives for Checkmarx components where applicable

• Improve resiliency through active‑active / DR strategies , backup validation, and BCP testing

• Evaluate new Checkmarx features, plugins, and security scanning enhancements

Technical Leadership

• Serve as SME and technical escalation point for Checkmarx across the enterprise

• Mentor engineers and promote SRE best practices, automation standards, and operational excellence

• Produce clear architecture, runbooks, and operational documentation

• Influence roadmap decisions with data‑driven insights and engineering rigor

Required Qualifications

Core Technical Skills

• 5+ years of Systems Engineering, Technology Architecture experience, or equivalent demonstrated through one or a combination of the following: work experience, training, military experience, education

• 5+ years of experience in Platform Engineering, SRE, DevOps, or Systems Engineering roles

• Hands‑on experience with Checkmarx (SAST) or similar AppSec scanning tools (e.g., Fortify, Veracode, SonarQube)

• Strong experience with Windows-based systems , networking, storage, and performance tuning

• Solid understanding of CI/CD pipelines and DevSecOps practices

• Proven experience applying SRE principles (SLIs, SLOs, error budgets, toil reduction)

• Strong automation skills using Python, Bash, PowerShell, or similar scripting languages

• Experience with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Ansible, CloudFormation, ARM, etc.)

• Expertise in monitoring, logging, and alerting platforms (Splunk, Prometheus, Grafana, AppDynamics, Elastic, etc.)

• Deep troubleshooting skills across application, OS, database, and infrastructure layers

Desired Qualifications

• Experience running security scanning platforms at enterprise scale (thousands of projects, high scan concurrency)

• Experience with container platforms (Kubernetes, OpenShift) and cloud environments (Azure, AWS, GCP)

• Knowledge of application security concepts (SAST, SDLC security, vulnerability management workflows)

• Experience with database platforms (MS SQL, PostgreSQL) and large‑scale data growth management

• Prior experience leading platform modernization or large tool upgrades

What Success Looks Like

• Checkmarx platform is highly reliable, scalable, and predictable

• Scan queues are optimized with minimal developer friction

• Operational toil is significantly reduced through automation

• Incidents are rare, well‑understood, and quickly remediated

• Engineering and Security teams trust and rely on the platform
