Apply least-privilege principles across applications, infrastructure, and cloud environments.

Monitor applications, infrastructure, and delivery pipelines for vulnerabilities and anomalies.

Coordinate patching, remediation, and infrastructure-hardening activities.

Collaborate with engineering teams during incident response, debugging, and root-cause analysis.

Required Qualifications

Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent professional experience.

At least three years of experience in security engineering, test automation, or a combination of both.

Experience developing or maintaining automation frameworks using Selenium, Playwright, Cypress, Rest Assured, or similar tools.

Strong hands-on experience with Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Azure DevOps, or similar CI/CD platforms.

Experience with security-testing tools such as Snyk, Burp Suite, OWASP ZAP, or comparable technologies.
