ABOUT THE ROLE
We are looking for a Senior Application Security Engineer to architect and build automated security layers within the SDLC, engineering AI-enabled secure code scanning, hardened baseline automation, and CI/CD security tooling integration within a large-scale financial services program. You will work primarily in Python to build automated security runbooks, deploy and tune scanning tools, and provide code-level remediation guidance to development teams — operating with full autonomy and no daily supervision. AppSec and DevSecOps experience is strongly preferred; SAST/DAST/SCA and Java expertise are a plus.

WHAT YOU WILL DO




- Engineer and deploy AI-enabled secure code scanning capabilities and "Golden Images" to drive secure-from-the-start adoption.
- Automate the development of secure coding patterns and integrate them with traditional and Agentic SDLC workflows.
- Architect the integration of continuous security scanning tools (SAST, DAST, SCA) into enterprise CI/CD pipelines, tuning them to eliminate noise.
- 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.

MUST HAVES
- 5+ years combining software engineering experience, security implementation and/or architecture experience.
- Robust coding and architectural proficiency in Python (for security automation and scripting).
- Fully autonomous execution capability, requiring no daily supervision to map out and build automated security runbooks.
- Upper-Intermediate
