Security Operations Engineer

Security Operations Engineer:

The Opportunity:

We are seeking a Security Operations Engineer to drive innovation in application security by integrating automated testing tools into CI/CD workflows. This role will focus on building scalable solutions, collaborating with cross-functional teams, and enhancing security processes to support our global security program.

What you’ll do…

• Design / build / implement and maintain scalable automation tools and pipelines for application security, including static (SAST), dynamic (DAST), and software composition analysis (SCA) scanning.
• Collaborate with developers, security engineers, and DevOps teams to integrate security automation seamlessly into CI/CD workflows.
• Identify opportunities for improving security tool coverage, efficiency, and performance.
• Develop custom scripts, plugins, or APIs to extend the capabilities of security testing and remediation automation.
• Monitor and analyze security automation tool results, generate actionable insights, and support incident response and remediation efforts.
• Stay up to date on the latest security automation trends, technologies, and best practices, and advocate for continuous improvement in tooling and processes.
• Provide mentorship and guidance to other engineers on secure coding and secure development lifecycle practices.

Who you are?

• 8+ years of software engineering experience with a focus on security automation or application security.
• Proficiency in Python, Ruby, Go, Java, or similar programming languages.
• Strong understanding of application security principles, vulnerabilities (e.g., OWASP Top Ten), and remediation techniques.
• Hands-on experience implementing and configuring security scanning tools such as SAST (e.g., Checkmarx, Fortify), DAST (e.g., Burp Suite, OWASP ZAP), and SCA (e.g., Snyk, WhiteSource).
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI) and infrastructure as code tools (e.g., Terraform, Ansible) is a plus.
• Solid understanding of software development lifecycle (SDLC) processes and how to integrate security automation seamlessly.
• Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to work independently and as part of a team.

Preferred Skills:

• Experience with cloud-native security automation (e.g., in AWS, Azure, or GCP environments).
• Familiarity with container security (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes) and related security scanning solutions.
• Knowledge of threat modeling and security risk assessments
