Escalate critical security risks with clear business context and recommended remediation paths. What you’ll need: 8+ years of experience in application security, software engineering, or a related field, with at least 3 years in an architecture or senior individual contributor role. Deep expertise in application security concepts: authentication and authorization, cryptography, input validation, API security, secrets management, and secure design principles. Demonstrated experience designing secure integration and interoperability patterns across distributed systems (microservices, REST/GraphQL APIs, event-driven architectures). Strong proficiency with threat modeling methodologies (STRIDE, PASTA, or equivalent) and security architecture review processes. Hands-on experience with application security tooling: SAST, DAST, SCA, container scanning, and secrets detection. Proficiency in at least one of the following technologies: .NET, Java, or JavaScript. Familiarity with cloud infrastructure security (AWS, Azure, or GCP).
