• Provide unified application security triage coverage across SCA, SAST, and DAST findings, including validation of critical and high-risk vulnerabilities, false positive analysis, exploitability assessment, remediation guidance, and escalation support for findings that may impact production, internet-facing, or business-critical applications
• Rapidly assess and coordinate responses for threat intelligence escalations and PatchNow Critical events, including scope analysis, owner routing, mitigation guidance, tracking, and closure verification
• Monitor and analyze newly disclosed and novel vulnerabilities, including faster-moving disclosures influenced by frontier-model-enabled research, and produce actionable briefs that drive remediation plans
• Engineer, test, and implement application security tooling that leverages frontier models or AI-enabled capabilities for vulnerability identification, code reasoning, triage acceleration, remediation recommendations, and analyst workflow automation while preserving human review, auditability, and secure use controls
• Support company processes for evaluating and onboarding new AI capabilities, including technical proof-of-value execution, security testing, control validation, data handling review, model output evaluation, success metrics, and documentation needed for internal governance and approval pathways

Requirements:

• 3 plus years Code scanning experience
• 3 plus years open-source scanning
• 3 plus years dynamic and static scanning
• Strong experience triaging SCA/SAST/DAST findings and managing high-severity escalations (threat intel and critical patch events) through remediation and closure
• Engineering experience with scripting, automation, APIs, CI/CD workflows, developer tooling, or security platform integrations
• Practical familiarity with AI-enabled security tools, frontier models, coding assistants, prompt and tool orchestration, model evaluation, or AI governance processes
• Experience securing the software supply chain and developer tooling (IDEs, plugins/extensions, package managers, CI/CD integrations) against compromise and malicious code
• Ability to translate technical vulnerability findings into clear remediation guidance, risk summaries, and prioritization recommendations for development and security stakeholders
