Duration: 12+ month contract

Our client is seeking experienced, hands‑on engineers to help build and scale enterprise code scanning and application security capabilities across modern cloud‑native environments.

This role focuses on developing automated vulnerability detection, secure development tooling, and developer enablement solutions that improve software security while accelerating delivery.

The ideal candidate is a builder who enjoys writing production-quality code, solving complex engineering challenges, and creating scalable platforms that help development teams identify and remediate vulnerabilities early in the software development lifecycle.

This is not a traditional security compliance or advisory role. We are looking for engineers with strong software development backgrounds who can build, automate, troubleshoot, and productionize security solutions at scale.

Responsibilities

• Build and enhance automated code scanning and vulnerability detection capabilities
• Develop integrations between security tools, CI/CD pipelines, developer platforms, APIs, and enterprise applications
• Create reusable security engineering solutions that support application modernization initiatives
• Enable secure development across applications, APIs, data services, and AI-enabled solutions
• Implement automation that reduces manual security reviews and operational overhead
• Partner with engineering teams to improve security earlier in the SDLC
• Evaluate, validate, and productionize AI-assisted development practices
• Troubleshoot complex issues across development, deployment, and runtime environments
• Analyze technical tradeoffs and recommend scalable engineering solutions
• Contribute hands‑on code while helping drive enterprise security modernization efforts

Required Qualifications

• 8+ years of software engineering experience supporting production applications
• Strong programming experience in Java and Python
• Experience building, deploying, and supporting applications in production environments
• Strong understanding of application security principles and secure coding practices
• Experience with code scanning, vulnerability management, or security automation tools
• Experience integrating tools and systems through APIs and automation
• Strong troubleshooting and root cause analysis skills
• Ability to work independently with minimal direction
• Strong systems‑thinking and problem‑solving capabilities

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with GCP and/or OpenShift
• Experience securing APIs and microservices
• Experience with CI/CD tooling and developer platforms
• Experience with SAST, SCA, and application security tooling
• Experience building internal engineering platforms, automation frameworks, or developer enablement tools
• Experience leveraging AI‑assisted development tools and validating AI‑generated code

What We're Looking For

• Self‑starter who thrives in ambiguous environments
• Strong builder mentality and passion for engineering
• Deep understanding of how software operates in production
• Ability to evaluate multiple technical approaches and communicate tradeoffs
• Comfortable using AI as an accelerator while maintaining strong engineering judgment
• Hands‑on contributor who enjoys solving difficult technical problems

Upon completion of waiting period consultants are eligible for:

• Medical and Prescription Drug Plans
• Vision Plan
• Health Savings Account
• Health Flexible Spending Account
• Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account
• Supplemental Life Insurance
• Short Term and Long Term Disability Insurance
• Business Travel Insurance
• Weekly Pay
