Application Security Engineer (Contract-to-Full-Time Opportunity)

We’re looking for an experienced Application Security Engineer to join us on a contract basis, with the potential to transition to a full-time role. In this role, you’ll help shape and strengthen the security of our cloud-based applications, tools, and workflows across AWS and Azure environments.

You’ll collaborate closely with developers, product teams, and business stakeholders — not just identifying security risks, but actively helping to resolve them through engineering, automation, and secure development practices.

This is a hands-on, impact-focused role ideal for someone who thrives in a cloud-native, developer-first environment and wants to see their work drive measurable improvements in security posture.

What You’ll Do: (Initial Contract Scope)

• Lead a focused security assessment across AWS and Azure to identify and prioritize critical risks.
• Implement and optimize SAST, DAST, and SCA tooling in our CI/CD pipelines.
• Create and deliver actionable remediation playbooks to development teams.
• Conduct threat modeling on key applications and infrastructure.
• Evaluate security controls for AI/LLM-based applications and make improvement recommendations.
• Develop a short-term Kubernetes/container security hardening plan.
• Draft initial updates to application security policies and governance documents.
• Provide targeted training for developers on immediate security vulnerabilities and prevention.
  
  

WHAT YOU’LL NEED:

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Security, or equivalent experience.
• CISSP (or equivalent) required; CSSLP a plus.
• 7+ years in Information Security, including at least 5 years in IT or engineering-focused roles.
• Strong grasp of security architecture, particularly in Kubernetes, and knowledge of industry frameworks and best practices.
• Previous development background with the ability to understand security impacts at the coding level.
• Proven experience in penetration testing coordination, vulnerability management, and threat modeling.
• Knowledge of regulatory standards such as GDPR, PCI DSS 4.0, and ISO 27001.
• Understanding of SDLC and secure development lifecycle integration.
• Excellent communication skills and ability to collaborate across technical and business teams.
