  • Act as a senior technical SME, reading and reviewing complex application code (Java/Python) to provide software engineers with highly specific, code-level remediation guidance.

Must haves

  • 5+ years of software engineering experience , ideally with a focus on Application Security and DevSecOps;
  • Strong coding and architectural proficiency in Python for security automation and scripting;
  • Fully autonomous execution capability, requiring no daily supervision to map out and build automated security runbooks;

Nice to haves

  • Deep, hands-on expertise deploying and tuning modern application security testing tools, including SAST , DAST , and SCA , and integrating them into complex CI/CD orchestration ecosystems;
  • Experience integrating LLMs, AI agents, or automated coding assistants to streamline vulnerability triaging or secure code generation;
  • Advanced application threat modeling experience;
  • Ability to confidently read, review, and secure enterprise source Java code.
  • Growth without limits: build your skills through mentorship, internal TechTalks, challenging projects, and a dedicated annual learning budget
  • Competitive compensation: get recognition that reflects your skills and impact, with regular performance and compensation reviews
  • Flexibility: work 100% remotely with flexible hours that support focus, autonomy, and a healthy work rhythm
  • Meaningful, modern projects: build impactful products using modern technologies alongside global teams and leading brands
  • Collaborative culture: join a supportive environment with zero micromanagement where ideas are welcomed and contributions are recognized
  • Well-being & support: access local well-being programs and people-focused support tailored to your location
