Ayodeji Obayomi
Senior Product Security Engineer | DevSecOps & Cloud Security Specialist
Ayodeji Obayomi is a Senior Product Security Engineer II at Optro, with a career built on delivering DevSecOps and cloud security solutions to technology clients worldwide. A graduate of a Master of Science in Cybersecurity and Information Assurance and a Master of Science in Software Engineering with a specialization in Artificial Intelligence, he brings both deep theoretical grounding and extensive practical experience to his work. Certified in cloud solutions architecture, cloud-native security, cybersecurity, and Kubernetes container orchestration, Mr. Obayomi embeds security across every layer of cloud infrastructure and the software development lifecycle — treating security not as a final gate but as a continuous, engineered discipline.
At Pathward, Mr. Obayomi secured and automated deployments across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud, managing cloud and on-premises workloads using Terraform, Ansible, Jenkins, Kubernetes, and Azure DevOps. His security expertise spans threat modeling, application and infrastructure security, site reliability engineering, and risk mitigation — with a consistent focus on building controls that remain resilient against an ever-evolving threat landscape. Rather than treating these as isolated disciplines, he integrates them into a unified security engineering practice that scales with the organizations he serves.
Across engagements at Pathward, Accenture, and Access Bank, Mr. Obayomi has engineered fault-tolerant, secure, and highly available hybrid infrastructure. He has led cloud migration security workstreams that ensured applications refactored onto AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud maintained strong security baselines throughout the transition — supported by infrastructure-as-code tooling that enforced consistent controls and eliminated configuration drift at scale. His ability to operate across the full technical stack, from pipeline automation to governance frameworks, makes him equally effective as a hands-on engineer and as a strategic security advisor.
