- Application Security Testing: Implement and maintain SAST, DAST, SCA, and IAST tools to continuously identify vulnerabilities in our applications and dependencies.
- Vulnerability Management: Lead the application vulnerability management program—prioritizing, tracking, and validating remediation of security findings across development teams.
- Compliance Support: Ensure application security controls meet compliance requirements for SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, HIPAA, and other relevant frameworks.
- Incident Response: Investigate application security incidents, coordinate remediation efforts with engineering teams, and conduct post-incident reviews to prevent recurrence.
