• Commoditize developed security features and integrations to be leveraged across disparate engineering teams and their respective applications.
• Conduct security reviews and provide guidance on architectural designs to address security requirements.

• Stay up to date on emerging threats and industry best practices in product security.

What We're Looking For:

• Bachelor's degree in computer science or a related field.
• 5+ years of experience in product security, application security, software development, or related fields. Strong understanding of secure coding practices and common vulnerabilities (e.g. OWASP Top 10).
• Experience with application security testing tools and technologies (e.g. SAST, DAST, SCA). Proficiency in one or more software programming languages (e.g. Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, Java, Kotlin, Golang).
• Proficiency in one or more infrastructure automation frameworks (e.g. Terraform, Ansible). Familiarity with modern platform, API, and application frameworks (e.g. Kubernetes, ArgoCD, Apollo GraphQL).
• Familiarity with major cloud platforms (e.g. AWS, Azure, GCP).
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams.
