Responsibilities:
- Integrate security practices throughout the SDLC in partnership with engineering and DevOps teams
- Promote secure coding standards, tooling, and automation
- Design, implement, and maintain security controls within CI/CD platforms (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab, Azure DevOps, etc.)
- Ensure software integrity through code signing, artifact validation, and provenance
- Automate SAST, DAST, SCA, and container image scanning in the build and release pipelines
- Automated AI specific vulnerability scanning into CI/CD to catch insecure LLM orchestration patters
- Identify and remediate misconfigurations and access control gaps in pipeline environments
- Design, deploy, and tune WAF rules and API security protections
- Conduct API risk assessments and promote secure API design patterns
- Perform secure code reviews and support automated security testing coverage across pipelines
- Triage, prioritize, and track vulnerabilities across source code, CI/CD pipelines, and deployed services
- Facilitate threat modeling for applications, APIs, and delivery pipelines
- Perform threat modeling on RAG architecture and autonomous agents
- Expand security automation around API discovery, dependency scanning, SBOM generation, and secrets detection
- Mentor engineering teams on secure coding and secure pipeline practices
- Support the Security Champions program
- Act as a trusted advisor to product, platform engineering, and DevOps teams, translating technical risks into business impact
- Partner with SOC/IR teams during software supply chain or pipeline-related security incidents
- Assess and guide the secure adoption of AI capabilities within enterprise applications—focusing on data security, access controls, model input/output handling, and preventing misuse within internal systems
- Leverage AI‑powered security tools to identify anomalies, code risks, and pipeline misconfigurations within internal applications and CI/CD systems
Requirements:
- 5–8+ years in Application Security, Product Security, or Secure Software Development
- Hands-on experience securing CI/CD pipelines and source repositories (GitHub, GitLab, Jenkins, etc.)
- Knowledge of supply chain security frameworks (SLSA, NIST SSDF)
- Experience with secrets management, artifact signing (Sigstore, Cosign), and build integrity
- Strong background in WAF tuning, API security, and vulnerability remediation
- Proficiency in at least one programming language (Python, Java, Go, JavaScript/Node.js)
- Experience with SAST, DAST, SCA, and container scanning tools
- Cloud security experience (AWS, Azure, or GCP)
- Strong understanding of OWASP Top 10 (Web & API), CWE, and secure coding practices
- Familiarity with OWASP Top 10 for LLM Application and MITRE ATLAS
- Experience integrating SBOM generation and SCA into CI/CD workflows
- Knowledge of runtime protection tools (API security platforms, RASP, container EDR)
- Experience with GitOps, IaC scanning (Terraform, CloudFormation), and policy-as-code
- Background handling software supply chain or dependency poisoning incidents
- Relevant certifications: OSWE, CSSLP, GPCS, GWEB, GCSA
