  • Familiarity with cloud application security concepts on at least one major cloud platform, such as Azure, AWS, or GCP.
  • Experience participating in at least several production projects or engineering teams.
  • Practical understanding of AI-assisted productivity and automation beyond basic chatbot usage, such as building agents, automating tasks, integrating LLMs with tools or workflows, or using structured prompting.
  • Ability to work with developers, architects, QA engineers, DevOps, product, and security teams, and to influence without owning the codebase.
  • Ability to follow, maintain, and improve defined security processes.
  • Ability to explain security risks, technical decisions, and remediation plans to technical and non-technical stakeholders.

  • Perform threat modeling, architecture security reviews, and design reviews for applications, services, and APIs.
  • Conduct manual and AI-assisted secure code reviews and advise developers on secure coding and remediation.
  • Implement and operate application security tooling, including SAST, DAST, IAST, SCA, secrets scanning, and IaC scanning, in CI/CD pipelines.
  • Triage, validate, prioritize, and track security findings through remediation with development teams.
  • Define and maintain CI/CD security gates, application security standards, baselines, and policy-as-code.
  • Secure software supply chains through dependency and open-source risk management, SBOM generation, artifact integrity, and build pipeline hardening.
  • Build and integrate AI agents and LLM-backed automations into AppSec workflows and SDLC pipelines.
  • Implement controls for AI-assisted AppSec workflows and AI-powered application features, including validation, guardrails, access controls, and auditability.
  • Establish a security champions program and deliver secure-coding training, guidelines, and reusable security patterns.
