- Improve container security, including hardened base images, vulnerability management, registry controls, and lifecycle management.
- Lead Android/AOSP security activities, including CVE remediation, SELinux, Verified Boot, keystore/key attestation, and platform hardening.
- Own vulnerability management across device, cloud, and payment environments, including prioritization, remediation SLAs, and validation.
- Lead threat modeling, secure design reviews, penetration-test remediation, and security assessments.
- Support security requirements related to PCI, EU RED/EN 18031, EU CRA, ETSI EN 303 645, NIST, and OWASP.
- Develop security metrics and provide technical reporting on vulnerabilities, remediation, control coverage, exceptions, and security risk.
- Serve as a technical escalation point for release-blocking security findings and certification concerns.
- Represent Software Engineering in security governance, audits, customer security discussions, and third-party assessments.
- Provide security guidance, secure coding support, and technical coaching to engineering teams.
Minimum Qualifications- Bachelor's degree in computer science, Computer Engineering, Information Security, or a related technical field.
- 8+ years of experience in security engineering, software engineering, platform engineering, product security, or a related field.
- Hands-on experience integrating SAST/SCA and security tooling into CI/CD pipelines and driving remediation with development teams.
- Strong working knowledge of AWS security, including IAM, networking, encryption, logging, and cloud security posture management.
- Practical experience with Docker, Kubernetes, and container security.
- Ability to read and review code in at least two languages such as Java, Kotlin, C/C++, Python, Go, or Shell.
- Working knowledge of CVE/CVSS, vulnerability management, threat modeling, and secure software development.
- Understanding of cryptography, PKI, TLS, certificates, and key management.
- Demonstrated ability to influence and drive security outcomes across teams without direct authority.
Preferred Qualifications- Experience implementing code signing across firmware, mobile, and container artifacts.
- Android/AOSP security experience, including SELinux, Verified Boot, keystore, BSP, or platform security.
- Experience with SBOM and software supply chain security, including SPDX/CycloneDX and tools such as JFrog Curation or Dependency-Track.
- Experience with security platforms such as Cycode, SonarQube, Fortify, Checkmarx, GitHub Advanced Security, Black Duck, Snyk, or Mend.
- Experience with hardened container images such as Chainguard.
- Knowledge of PCI-SSF, PCI-PTS, EU CRA, EU RED/EN 18031, ETSI EN 303 645, or IEC 62443.
