We'll need you to understand our applications, identify potential vulnerabilities, propose, design and implement solutions that will lower the overall risk.

More about you

- Long-term focus. Improving the security of our applications requires us to build strong foundations and think about the long term impact of our actions.
- Humans > Code. Strong relationships with development teams is key to a successful application security program, we need professionals which can explain complex problems in simple terms and engage in valuable conversations with development teams every time they can.
