Senior Application Security Engineer
We are seeking a Senior Application Security Engineer to strengthen the security of modern software applications and services throughout their development lifecycle. This is an opportunity to work closely with engineering, platform, architecture and product teams, helping to embed secure-by-design principles across a complex technology environment. You will provide technical leadership, practical guidance and constructive challenge, while supporting a culture in which security is considered a shared responsibility.
Your responsibilities will include defining and improving application security standards, reviewing designs and code, conducting threat modelling, and identifying vulnerabilities across web applications, APIs, cloud services and supporting infrastructure. You will help integrate security controls into CI/CD pipelines and development workflows, ensuring that automated testing, dependency management, secrets protection and security monitoring are effective and proportionate. You will also lead or support vulnerability assessments, coordinate remediation activity, investigate security issues, and advise on appropriate mitigations. Clear documentation, meaningful reporting and the ability to communicate risk to both technical and non-technical audiences will be essential.
You will bring substantial experience in application or product security, with a strong understanding of secure software development practices and common vulnerabilities such as those described by OWASP. Experience with threat modelling methodologies, source code analysis, dynamic testing, software composition analysis and cloud security tooling is highly desirable. You should be comfortable working with modern programming languages, APIs, containers and infrastructure-as-code, and have practical experience embedding security within agile delivery teams. Relevant professional qualifications or certifications are welcome, but demonstrable expertise and sound judgement are equally important. We are looking for someone collaborative, curious and pragmatic, who can influence without relying on authority and who is committed to continuously improving security outcomes.
