About the role

We are looking for a Python Application Security Engineer to automate application security controls and integrate secure coding practices into software development and cloud workflows.

The mandatory requirements are 3+ years of experience in software engineering and security, Python, AppSec tool APIs, CSPM, IaC/Terraform checks and independent execution; upper-intermediate English is required. SAST/DAST/SCA, AI security, threat modeling and Java are a plus.

Must haves

3+ years of experience combining software engineering experience, security implementation and/or architecture experience.

Strong coding and architectural proficiency in Python (for security automation and scripting).

Hands-on experience or familiarity with Wiz, Prisma Cloud, or similar tools for cloud security posture management and threat detection.

Implementation experience with deploy-time checks against Infrastructure as Code (IaC) / Terraform.

Implementation experience with runtime checks through Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM).

Fully autonomous execution capability, requiring no daily supervision to map out and build automated security runbooks.

Upper-intermediate English level.

Nice to haves

Deep, hands-on expertise deploying and tuning modern application security testing tools (SAST, DAST, SCA) and integrating them into complex CI/CD orchestration ecosystems.

Experience integrating LLMs, AI agents, or automated coding assistants to streamline vulnerability triaging or secure code generation.

Advanced application threat modeling experience.

Ability to confidently read, review and secure enterprise source Java code.

What you will do

AppSec Engineering & Automation: Engineer and deploy AI-enabled secure code scanning capabilities and "Golden Images" to drive secure-from-the-start adoption.

Technical Modernization: Automate the development of secure coding patterns and integrate them with traditional and Agentic SDLC workflows.

Security Tooling Integration: Architect the integration of continuous security scanning tools (SAST, DAST, SCA) into enterprise CI/CD pipelines, tuning them to eliminate noise.

Cloud & Runtime Security: Implement runtime security checks via CSPM to maintain continuous cloud visibility and threat posture management.

Developer Experience (DevEx): Act as a senior technical SME, reading and reviewing complex application code (Java/Python) to provide software engineers with highly specific, code-level remediation guidance.
