About Hyperlayer
Hyperlayer is the intelligent banking platform built for the agentic economy: the financial control layer that sits above banks' existing cores, enabling next-generation Smart Accounts, without ripping anything out. From a single integration, we give financial institutions a secure rules and orchestration engine that lets them design, launch and scale hyper-personalised products in weeks while preserving stability, compliance and control. And there's nothing like us anywhere in the world.
Hyperlayer works with Tier 1 and Tier 2 FIs across the UK, US, EMEA and Hong Kong, with an award-winning UK consumer app (HyperJar) sitting in the group. We're creating the fintech category that every bank in the world needs: programmable, governed, agent-ready accounts. Your job is to make sure our audiences know that.
About the Role
As Head of DevSecOps, you'll own the security, reliability and delivery of the platform that Tier 1 and Tier 2 banks build their products on. Sitting in our Engineering team and reporting to the CTO, you'll lead our DevOps engineers (a team of 4) and set the direction for how we build, ship and secure our infrastructure, with security built into every stage of the software lifecycle rather than added at the end. You'll also be a trusted voice for our banking clients, helping them feel confident in how we protect their data and keep the platform running. As we expand into new markets, the role will grow to cover a larger team and a broader security and resilience remit.
This is an office-based role, with regular in-person collaboration in the office.

Using AI at Hyperlayer
Hyperlayer is hyper-focused on making the most of AI across every workstream, and DevSecOps is no exception.

You'll also help shape how we use AI safely across Engineering, setting sensible guardrails for tooling, data and access.
