• Strong experience in securing cloud-based infrastructure and container technologies (Docker, Kubernetes).
• Expertise in programming languages such as Python, Java, JavaScript, Go, and Ruby on Rails, with a deep understanding of secure coding practices (e.g., input validation, session management).
• Extensive experience in penetration testing, vulnerability assessments, and conducting threat modeling exercises.
• Hands-on experience with security scanning tools and secure development lifecycle processes.
• A strong track record of working with development teams to integrate security into the software development lifecycle, from CI/CD pipelines to runtime.
• Experience in driving security processes and educating developers on secure coding practices.

You Are:

• A strategic thinker who can influence at all levels of the organization and drive security initiatives across the product lifecycle.
• A leader who can mentor and guide teams to integrate security seamlessly into product development processes.
• Experienced in making tough security decisions, balancing risk with business needs, and ensuring that security is an enabler of growth.
• A clear communicator with the ability to articulate security risks and solutions to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Passionate about creating a security-first culture and promoting best practices across teams.
• Experienced in using data-driven approaches to identify security risks and track progress towards mitigation.

Nice-to-Have:

• Familiarity with GraphQL and experience with securing API-driven applications.
• Experience integrating security tools within the CI/CD pipeline.
• Knowledge of securing software development lifecycles, including automated and manual application security testing and source code reviews.
