Principal Product Security Engineer
We are seeking a Principal Product Security Engineer to provide strategic leadership and hands-on technical expertise across the product development lifecycle. You will help define and deliver a forward-looking product security strategy, ensuring that security is embedded from early design through to deployment and ongoing operation. Working closely with engineering, architecture, product and technology teams, you will identify risks, influence decision-making and promote secure-by-design principles across a diverse product portfolio.
Your responsibilities will include establishing security requirements, threat modelling complex systems, reviewing architectures and guiding secure coding practices. You will lead security assessments, vulnerability management and product assurance activities, while supporting teams to investigate and remediate weaknesses effectively. You will also contribute to security standards, patterns, tooling and automation, helping to improve the consistency and efficiency of security controls within development and delivery pipelines. The role will involve mentoring engineers and security specialists, communicating technical risks to senior stakeholders, and representing product security in governance and design forums.
You will bring substantial experience in product or application security, with a strong understanding of secure software development, cloud technologies, modern application architectures and DevSecOps practices. Experience with threat modelling methodologies, security testing, software supply-chain security, identity and access management, and common web and API vulnerabilities is essential. You should be confident working across complex, multi-disciplinary environments and able to balance robust security with usability, delivery priorities and commercial needs. Strong communication, influencing and problem-solving skills are required, alongside the ability to operate strategically while remaining comfortable diving into technical detail. Relevant professional certifications or demonstrable equivalent experience would be advantageous.
