Drive vulnerability management for our applications and supply chain , including triaging and prioritizing issues, coordinating with teams on fix/mitigate/accept decisions, and ensuring we continuously improve our security posture.

Perform secure design and architecture reviews and threat modeling for distributed, API- and microservices-based systems, helping teams understand security trade-offs and make sound, risk-based decisions.

Support and help coordinate application-layer security incidents and escalations , working closely with Engineering, Support, and other stakeholders to investigate, contain, and learn from issues.

Together with the rest of the InfoSec team, help with security audits, customer assurance, and other processes

Strong Software engineering and secure coding background , with substantial recent hands-on experience building and reviewing (Java) services, working in CI/CD environments, and shipping SaaS or other cloud-based applications securely.

Secure SDLC, architecture & risk assessment experience , including secure design reviews, threat modeling for distributed/API/microservices systems, and performing risk assessments on product changes or new features.

Vulnerability management & security tooling expertise , with a proven track record of implementing and tuning SAST/DAST/SCA and container/image scanning, evaluating and triaging findings (including false positives), and driving fix/mitigate/accept decisions with engineering teams.
