What you'll do:

  • Develop and implement security services for developers.
  • Build APIs and software solutions to safeguard systems and sensitive data.
  • Apply your expertise in SAST, SCA, and software vulnerabilities.
  • Collaborate with developers and security teams to embed security best practices.
  • Influence technical direction and guide less experienced engineers.

What we're looking for:

  • Strong software engineering background (Go preferred; Java secondary; Python nice-to-have).
  • Experience in application security, including SAST/SCA/DAST and secure coding practices.
  • Knowledge of REST APIs, authentication, Linux, and scripting/automation.
  • Familiarity with at least one major cloud provider (AWS, Azure, GCP).

Why join:

  • Be part of a 30-strong team shaping the bank's security future.
  • Hands-on role with real technical impact—no direct reports initially.
