Application Security Engineer (SAST & DAST, DevSecOps)

Bangalore North, India

Job Description

Experience: 7-12 years

Summary

This pivotal role focuses on strengthening enterprise application security by leveraging a comprehensive suite of testing methodologies, including Static Application Security Testing (SAST), Software Composition Analysis (SCA), Secrets Detection, and Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST). The successful candidate will act as a catalyst for embedding security into the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC), ensuring seamless integration within CI/CD workflows. By overseeing vulnerability validation, managing Software Bill of Materials (SBOM), and driving risk‑based remediation strategies, this position is essential for maintaining robust security postures and delivering actionable security metrics to stakeholders.

Responsibilities

• Execute ongoing and targeted security assessments utilizing advanced SAST, SCA, Secrets Detection, and DAST technologies.
  
• Analyze security alerts to verify accuracy, filter out false positives, and assist development teams in resolving identified vulnerabilities.
  
• Embed automated security scanning mechanisms directly into CI/CD pipelines to enforce strict secure development gates.
  
• Oversee the creation of SBOMs, monitor open-source dependency risks, track Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs), and generate reports on vulnerability exposure.
  
• Monitor and manage remediation Service Level Agreements (SLAs), Turnaround Time (TTD), and Time to Remediate (TTR) metrics alongside key application security performance indicators.
  
• Collaborate closely with development, DevSecOps, and platform engineering units to facilitate effective remediation and foster a culture of continuous security enhancement.
  
• Contribute to security evaluation efforts, optimize scanning tools, produce executive reports, and lead initiatives to empower developers with security best practices.
  

Requirements

• Possess between 2-6 years of professional experience within Application Security, Secure SDLC frameworks, or DevSecOps environments.
  
• Demonstrate practical expertise in managing enterprise-level AppSec scanning platforms and executing vulnerability management lifecycles.
  
• Show proven ability to integrate security testing protocols into CI/CD pipelines and cloud‑native infrastructure.
  
• Maintain a deep understanding of the OWASP Top 10, secure coding standards, and the principles of software supply chain security.
  

Technical Skills & Tool Experience

• SAST: Proficiency with Checkmarx, Veracode, Fortify, SonarQube, or GitHub Advanced Security.
  
• SCA & SBOM: Experience utilizing Fortify, Checkmarx, Snyk, or Black Duck for dependency analysis.
  
• DAST & API Security: Hands‑on knowledge of Fortify, Checkmarx, Burp Suite, Invicti, or Acunetix.
