Partner with engineering, DevOps, and QA to remediate vulnerabilities and design secure-by-default systems. Strengthen software supply-chain security through SBOMs, dependency scanning, and secret detection. Support audits and help maintain compliance with frameworks like ISO 27001, NIST CSF, and CIS Benchmarks. Run secure-coding sessions and security awareness training for development teams. ⟢ Requirements: Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Security, Engineering, or a related field. 5+ years of experience in Application Security, Security Engineering, DevSecOps, or Cloud Security.

Comfortable running SAST, DAST, SCA, and IaC scans as part of a vulnerability management program. Experience embedding security into CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub, Bitbucket, or Azure DevOps). Solid grounding in secure SDLC principles and threat modeling.
