  • Contribute to automated security controls we are building
  • Have a part in every aspect of the software development lifecycle

Qualifications

Here's What We Are Looking For:

  • 3+ years of application security experience (some of the things that will be useful are: source code auditing, threat modeling, product assessments, vulnerability research, development of security tools and automation)
  • Influence the design and implementation of upcoming products and services with security and privacy by design mindset

  • Experience with web application security, DevSecOps and/or secure SDLC
  • Provide hands-on remediation guidance to development teams
  • Proven interpersonal skills: ability to explain complex technical issues to both technical and non-technical audiences, so you will need to have strong communication and collaboration skills, and most importantly, empathy.

What We Offer:

  • Flying Start - Our immersive Global Induction Program (Meet our Execs & Global Teams)
