Senior Application Security Engineer (Remote - United Kingdom)
We are seeking a Senior Application Security Engineer to help strengthen the security of modern software products and services across their full development lifecycle. In this role, you will work closely with software engineers, architects, product teams and infrastructure specialists to embed secure-by-design principles into applications, platforms and delivery processes. You will help shape security standards, provide pragmatic guidance and support teams in identifying and addressing risks without unnecessarily slowing innovation.
Your responsibilities will include conducting threat modelling, reviewing application and infrastructure designs, and performing or coordinating security assessments, code reviews and penetration testing. You will analyse findings from automated and manual testing, support vulnerability triage and remediation, and advise on appropriate risk treatment. You will contribute to secure development standards, reusable security patterns and developer enablement through training, documentation and hands-on coaching. You will also help improve application security tooling, including software composition analysis, static and dynamic testing, secrets detection and security monitoring within CI/CD pipelines.
To succeed, you will have substantial experience in application or product security, with strong knowledge of secure software development practices, common vulnerabilities and recognised frameworks such as OWASP. You should be comfortable reviewing code in one or more programming languages and working with cloud-native architectures, APIs, containers and modern DevOps practices. Experience with threat modelling methodologies, security automation and incident or vulnerability management is highly desirable. Strong communication skills are essential, as you will need to explain complex security issues clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences and influence positive change across distributed teams. This is a remote role for candidates based in the United Kingdom, with occasional collaboration across working hours and potential travel for team or business events.
