  • Production experience with Kubernetes backed services
  • Hands-on experience with SAST and DAST tools and methodologies.
  • Familiarity with terraform orchestration for infrastructure management.
  • You can structure complex problems and diagnose root causes independently, providing actionable insights without requiring manager input.
  • Excellent communication skills, with the ability to clearly present technical concepts and their implications to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Demonstrated ability to influence security strategies and drive improvements within a team.
  • Relevant security certifications (e.g., CISSP, CEH, OSCP) are a plus.
