You'll work closely with engineers to support practical threat modelling, triage application vulnerabilities, improve security playbooks and help teams remediate issues in a pragmatic way. You do not need to be a deep AWS or cloud security specialist, but some exposure to AWS, cloud security or infrastructure as code security would be useful. We're looking for someone with practical AppSec experience who wants to grow their impact - someone who enjoys working with engineers, improving tooling and helping security become part of normal delivery rather than a last minute checkpoint.

Threat modelling awareness: experience participating in, supporting or facilitating lightweight threat modelling sessions for applications, services or new features. Automation mindset: ability to write scripts or small tools, ideally in Python, to reduce manual effort, improve visibility or make security workflows easier. Cloud security awareness: Some exposure to AWS, cloud security or infrastructure as code security would be useful, but is not essential. Growth mindset: willingness to keep developing across application security, cloud security, secure development and modern engineering practices. Required Experience, Essential Practical experience in application security. Experience working with software engineers to explain and remediate security issues. Familiarity with common web application security risks and secure coding practices. Experience with vulnerability triage, prioritisation and remediation tracking. Experience using or interpreting findings from tools such as SAST, software composition analysis, secret scanning or similar. Experience participating in or supporting threat modelling activities. Ability to write scripts or small tools, ideally in Python, to automate tasks or improve visibility. Strong communication and collaboration skills. Familiarity with Agile or Scrum ways of working.

Experience with bug bounty, penetration testing or security testing programmes. Experience with Splunk or similar logging/SIEM platforms. Exposure to AI security, such as LLM enabled applications, AI assisted development workflows or prompt/data leakage risks. Experience building dashboards, metrics or reports to support vulnerability management. Relevant security certifications or training, such as AWS security training, secure coding training, GIAC, ISC2, CREST or equivalent practical experience. What's in it for you? Our benefits Our benefits vary by location but we are committed to providing best in class perks across all our offices. These include generous annual leave, medical cover, inclusive parental leave packages, subsidised gym memberships and opportunities to give back to the community.
