- Create automation that orchestrates compliance evaluation.
- Develop self‑service security products that streamline SSDLC and accelerate secure delivery.
- Implement AI‑assisted capabilities for contextual vulnerability triage and proactive guardrails.
- Automate posture analytics and executive‑ready dashboards (Grafana, Power BI) to surface trends, coverage, and risk signals.
- Work closely with product, architect, and design to ensure functionality meets user needs.
- Drive adoption through demos, guidance, and workshops.

What you bring to the table

- Degree in Software Engineering, Computer Science, or related field.

- Experience building secure APIs and integrations (REST/GraphQL), including authorization, input validation, and error handling.
- Comfort with data modeling and persistence (SQL/NoSQL), performance tuning, and migration strategies.
- Knowledge of logging, metrics, tracing, health checks, performance profiling, and SLOs.
- Experience designing and implementing CI/CD pipelines for application delivery, including adding security steps and quality gates.
- Ability to decompose complex problems, define clear acceptance criteria, and deliver iteratively with measurable outcomes.
- Guide peers, drive design reviews, and influence architecture.
- Familiarity with cloud‑native application design (AWS/Azure/GCP), containerization (Docker), and basic orchestration concepts (Kubernetes) with security considerations.
- Exposure to AI/LLM product development, prompt engineering, model integration, evaluation/validation, and data privacy considerations.




- Working knowledge of application security fundamentals and standards (e.g., OWASP Top 10, secure coding practices, supply chain security).
- Experience integrating or operating SAST/DAST, dependency, and cloud security tools, capable of integrating vendor products into developer workflows.
- Excellent communication skills, able to translate security and engineering concepts for diverse audiences.
- Nice to have: ServiceNow AVR exposure. Certifications (e.g., CISSP, CEH) are optional.
- No Canadian work experience required; must be eligible to work in Canada.
