Agile R&D enables Agilent’s software and product development teams to deliver high‑quality, secure, and compliant solutions at scale. The organization focuses on modern engineering practices, robust platforms, and continuous improvement to accelerate innovation across global R&D. This role is critical to shaping how software is built, secured, and delivered across Agilent’s regulated and non‑regulated environments.

Work Location & Collaboration Expectations

• This is an onsite role with a minimum expectation of three days per week in the office.
• Primary hiring location is Little Falls, DE, with Santa Clara, CA as an additional location.
• Occasional off‑hours collaboration may be required to support global teams.

Role Overview

We are seeking an experienced Dev Sec Ops Architect with a strong consulting mindset and deep expertise in designing, integrating, and optimizing enterprise Dev Sec Ops toolchains. This role partners closely with R&D, development, QA, and platform teams to modernize CI/CD ecosystems, embed security into the software development lifecycle, and support scalable software delivery across cloud and on‑premise environments.

This position is well suited for a senior‑level professional who can balance hands‑on technical execution with architectural guidance, stakeholder collaboration, and long‑term platform strategy.

Key Responsibilities

• Consult with R&D and engineering teams on Dev Sec Ops toolchain strategy, including assessment of existing environments and recommendations for improvement, consolidation, or migration.
• Architect, design, and implement scalable, secure, and maintainable Dev Sec Ops platforms supporting CI/CD, source control, release automation, and testing.
• Integrate and automate tools across the software development lifecycle, including version control, CI/CD, artifact management, containerization, infrastructure‑as‑code, monitoring, and security.
• Embed shift‑left security practices, integrating SAST, SCA, IaC scanning, container scanning, and code quality checks into developer workflows and pipelines.
• Provide expert guidance on version control strategies, branching models, secure coding standards, and threat‑modeling practices.
• Build, maintain, document, and continuously improve CI/CD pipelines for enterprise and regulated environments.
• Lead source control migrations (e.g., non‑Git to Git) and toolchain modernization initiatives.
• Collaborate closely with development, QA, platform, and R&D stakeholders to ensure consistent adoption of Dev Sec Ops practices.
• Create technical documentation and deliver workshops or enablement sessions on Dev Sec Ops tools, standards, and best practices.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• 8+ years of professional experience in Dev Sec Ops, source control management (SCM), and end‑to‑end software delivery pipelines within enterprise environments.
• Strong hands‑on experience designing, implementing, and supporting CI/CD pipelines, including release strategies, branching models, and artifact management.
• Demonstrated expertise in Dev Sec Ops toolchain architecture and integration, supporting cloud and on‑premise environments.
• Proven experience working with Git‑based platforms such as GitHub and Bitbucket, including repository management, workflows, and integrations.
• Hands‑on experience with Azure DevOps (Boards, Pipelines, Repos, Artifacts).
• Strong understanding of shift‑left security practices, including integration of security into the SDLC and CI/CD pipelines (e.g., SAST, SCA, IaC scanning, container scanning, and secrets detection).
• Experience with application security and code quality tools (e.g., Sonar Qube, Checkmarx, Veracode or similar).
• Experience with software composition analysis (SCA) tools (e.g., Black Duck, Snyk, Mend.io or similar).
• Familiarity with code and dependency scanning tools (e.g., GitHub Advanced Security, Dependabot, Git Leaks or equivalent).
• Proficiency in scripting and automation using languages such as Bash, Python, PowerShell, Groovy, and YAML.
• Experience with infrastructure automation and orchestration tools such as Jenkins, GitHub Actions, Terraform, Ansible, Docker, and Kubernetes.
• Experience leading or supporting source control migrations, including migrations from non‑Git systems to Git‑based platforms.
• Exposure to regulated environments (e.g., GxP or other regulated industries) is preferred; candidates with strong Dev Sec Ops fundamentals and the ability to learn regulatory frameworks are encouraged to apply.
• Experience working in hybrid cloud environments, including AWS and/or Azure.
• Familiarity with legacy or non‑Git SCM tools (e.g., Clear Case, Subversion) is a plus.
• Strong communication and consulting skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively with R&D, development, QA, platform teams, and senior stakeholders.
