Software Security Engineer

Reference: 73uaug0fimmiz39uh8jh

We are seeking a Software Security Engineer to help design, build and maintain secure software throughout the development lifecycle. In this role, you will work closely with software engineers, architects, infrastructure specialists and product teams to identify security risks early and embed effective controls into applications, services and development processes. You will contribute to security architecture reviews, threat modelling, secure coding guidance and the assessment of new technologies and technical designs.

Your responsibilities will include developing and maintaining security tools, libraries and automation that support secure software delivery; reviewing source code and application configurations; investigating vulnerabilities; and helping teams prioritise and remediate security findings. You will support security testing activities, including static and dynamic analysis, dependency scanning, penetration testing coordination and software supply chain assessments. You will also help define security standards, contribute to incident response when application-related issues arise, and produce clear documentation, metrics and recommendations for technical and non-technical stakeholders.

The successful candidate will have professional experience in software development, application security, DevSecOps or a closely related discipline, with a strong understanding of secure software development principles and common vulnerabilities such as those described by OWASP. Experience with one or more programming languages, cloud environments, CI/CD pipelines, version control systems and automated security testing tools is required. You should be comfortable analysing complex systems, communicating risk clearly and influencing teams through collaboration rather than authority. Knowledge of threat modelling frameworks, identity and access management, container security, infrastructure as code and software composition analysis would be advantageous. Relevant security or cloud certifications are welcome but not essential. You will need strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail and a proactive approach to continuous improvement.
