  • Be the go-to AppSec expert for technical software engineering, security, and compliance team members. Contribute to awareness across the product & engineering organization by being a thought leader and enthusiastic evangelist. 
  • Develop and maintain software security patterns to enable security/compliance/privacy-by-default engineering, such as: secure coding and configuration standards, code snippets/templates for Infrastructure as Code, hardening of containerized applications, etc. 
  • Lead automation and integration of vulnerability management tooling across artifact repositories, container registries, as well as other components of development and build pipelines. 
  • Triage vulnerability and compliance testing results for technical implications, validate their applicability, determine exposure in a system/component context, and generate user stories for remediation efforts. 
  • Contribute to development and implementation of technical compliance strategies across cloud infrastructure and system components (such as, recommended configurations for FIPS-validated crypto providers and segmentation of network-based information flows). 
  • Contribute to hardening efforts of development and QA environments, and the implementation of quality gates and security test suites across development pipelines. 
  • Maintain architecture-/engineering-level threat models for system components in active cooperation with engineering teams. 
  • Identify and describe application-specific security monitoring use cases for security monitoring & response purposes. 
  • Propose updates to security and privacy controls documentation (such as, System Security Plans, authorization boundary diagrams, and data inventories) to ensure system architecture and functions are accurately represented. 
  • Participate in ceremonies across multiple scrum teams to provide insights and capture concerns and needs related to application security, privacy, and compliance. 

 

Qualifications: 

  • Must be a US Citizen or US Permanent Resident  
  • 5+ years' experience in software engineering (with a focus on backend). 
  • Proficient in understanding and explaining the ins and outs of software vulnerabilities across stacks, their potential impact when exploited, and how to mitigate them. 
  • Proficient in at least one programming language and one scripting language, as well as building solutions applying infrastructure-as-code principles. 
  • Proficient in the security management of cloud infrastructure services and container-based deployments (preferably, AWS and Kubernetes). 
  • Proficient in the management of software supply chain security and software security vulnerabilities. 
  • Proficient in expressing the concepts, practical application, and typical implementation of identity & access management, applied cryptography, network security, and related security domains. 
  • Proficient in expressing implementation requirements for security work in engineering-facing user stories. 
  • Common sense, and proficient in concisely articulating both technical risk and the pros & cons of proposed solutions to decision makers and peers. 
  • Experience with modern CI/CD pipelines, scrum-based software engineering practices, and rapid prototyping of solutions. 
  • Experience with the automation of security and compliance processes, integration of security tooling cross development lifecycles, and centralized management of security findings. 
  • Experience in interpreting security and compliance frameworks and standards. 
  • Experience with application security testing tools and techniques, and with demonstrating/validating the exploitability of vulnerabilities.
