Job description

Role Overview We are looking for a Product Security Engineer with a strong background in software development, software testing, and security engineering to embed security into the product development lifecycle. The role will work closely with Product Engineering, QA, DevOps, and Product Security teams to identify, assess, and remediate security risks across products. The ideal candidate should be able to understand code, design and execute security tests, identify vulnerabilities, and work directly with development teams to implement effective security controls. Key Responsibilities Integrate security practices into the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) from design through release. Perform security reviews of product architecture, source code, APIs, and software components. Conduct security testing including: SAST and SCA DAST/API security testing Vulnerability assessment Fuzz testing Penetration testing Security regression testing Review and analyze vulnerabilities identified through security tools and testing activities. Work with developers to t riage, reproduce, prioritize, and remediate security vulnerabilities. Develop security test cases and automation to improve security testing coverage. Support implementation of secure coding practices and security controls within CI/CD pipelines. Participate in threat modelling and security risk assessments for new features and products. Review third-party and open-source components for security risks and support SBOM generation and maintenance. Support vulnerability remediation and security update processes throughout the product lifecycle. Investigate security defects and perform root-cause analysis to prevent recurrence. Support security requirements, security acceptance criteria, and release security assessments.
