Security Engineering Manager - DevSecOps (Hybrid in Bangalore)

Bangalore, INDIA

For over 20 years, Smartsheet has helped people and teams achieve–well, anything. From seamless work management to smart, scalable solutions, we’ve always worked with flow. We’re building tools that empower teams to automate the manual, uncover insights, and scale smarter. But more than that, we’re creating space– space to think big, take action, and unlock the kind of work that truly matters. Because when challenge meets purpose, and passion turns into progress, that’s magic at work, and it’s what we show up for everyday.

Automation is the key to creating highly reliable and secure large-scale software systems. Are you a leader who can build and guide a team that engineers solutions to complex security and reliability challenges? Can you develop a strategic vision to protect Smartsheet against an evolving landscape of threats?

We are looking for a Manager of DevSecOps to lead part of our global Security Operations team. In this highly visible role, you will be responsible for maturing our security and reliability posture by fostering a culture where these are treated as software engineering challenges. You will lead a team of talented engineers dedicated to building and operating a highly reliable, scalable, and defensible production environment. This is a unique opportunity to blend your deep technical expertise with your passion for leadership, working at the intersection of infrastructure, automation, and security to build a platform that is resilient and secure by design.

You Will:

  • Lead and Mentor a High-Performing Team: Hire, develop, and retain top engineering talent. Foster a culture of technical excellence, innovation, and ownership. Provide coaching, career guidance, and performance management for your team.
  • Develop the Strategic Roadmap: Define and execute the strategy for security infrastructure, automation, and operations. Collaborate with product and engineering leaders to set priorities and ensure your team's work aligns with business objectives.
  • Oversee Secure and Resilient Infrastructure: Guide the architectural design and implementation of secure, scalable, and highly available infrastructure in our multi-cloud (predominantly AWS) environment. Champion the use of Infrastructure as Code (IaC) with tools like Terraform and Helm.
  • Drive Security Automation Initiatives: Prioritize and direct the engineering of automated solutions for threat detection, incident response, and vulnerability management. Ensure your team is building the tools and workflows that allow us to respond to threats at machine speed.
  • Champion a "Secure by Design" SDLC: Partner with development teams to embed security into the CI/CD process. Advocate for the integration of automated security tooling (SAST, DAST, SCA) to provide developers with fast, actionable feedback.
  • Lead Incident Response Strategy: Oversee the team's incident response activities, acting as a point of escalation and leadership during major security and reliability events. Drive the blameless post-mortem process to ensure that incidents result in durable, engineered solutions.
  • Manage Automated Compliance Programs: Ensure the team's technical controls and automation efforts effectively support continuous compliance with frameworks such as FedRAMP, SOC 2, and ISO 27001.

You Have:

  • 10+ years of progressive experience in technology, with at least 3 years in a direct people management role for a technical team like Site Reliability Engineering, DevOps, or Security Engineering.
  • A BS or MS in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent industry experience.
  • Proven experience leading teams that manage large-scale cloud environments, preferably AWS, with a strong understanding of core infrastructure and security services.
  • Demonstrated ability to set technical direction for a team using Infrastructure as Code (Terraform), container orchestration (Kubernetes), and modern CI/CD practices.
  • A strong technical background in a scripting or programming language such as Python, Go, or Java.
  • Strong agile development skills
  • Deep understanding of the modern security operations toolchain, including SIEM, EDR, and vulnerability management technologies.
  • Exceptional leadership, communication, and interpersonal skills, with the ability to inspire your team and communicate complex technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders. Fluency in English is required.
  • A strategic mindset with a proven ability to solve complex problems and make data-driven decisions in high-pressure environments.

Nice to Have

  • Advanced industry certifications such as CISSP, CISM, or cloud-specific security certifications.
  • Direct experience with compliance frameworks like FedRAMP, ISO27001, or SOC2.
  • Experience managing as part of a globally distributed team.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
