ROLE INTRODUCTION
As an Application Security Engineer II, you will partner with software engineering teams to embed security throughout the software development lifecycle.

• Partner with software engineering teams to identify, prioritize, and help remediate application security risks throughout the Secure Software Development Lifecycle (SSDLC).

• Implement and maintain application security tooling including SAST, DAST, Software Composition Analysis (SCA), and secret scanning within CI/CD pipelines to enable secure software delivery.

• Support secure code reviews, provide secure coding guidance, and help development teams remediate identified vulnerabilities.

• Review penetration testing findings and work with engineering teams to prioritize, validate, and remediate identified issues.

• Contributes to security automation, reusable security controls, and developer enablement resources to improve secure software delivery.

• Collaborate with DevOps teams to integrate security into CI/CD pipelines and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) workflows.

• Assist with application security reviews for applications deployed in AWS and Azure cloud environments, including cloud-native services, APIs, and containerized workloads.

• Assist in evaluating emerging technologies, including AI-enabled applications and Large Language Models (LLMs), for potential security risks.

• Contribute to application security governance activities by contributing to secure coding standards, technical guidance, and security documentation.

• Assist in maintaining security monitoring, logging, and vulnerability reporting processes in collaboration with cloud operations and security teams.

• Collaborate with Privacy, Compliance, Legal, and IT teams on initiatives related to data protection, regulatory compliance, and application security.

• Stay informed on emerging application security threats, vulnerabilities, and industry best practices and contribute to continuous improvement initiatives.

WHAT YOU'LL NEED

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Security, or a related field, or equivalent work experience.

• Professional proficiency in both Portuguese and English (written and verbal) is required.

• 1–5 years of experience in Application Security, Software Engineering, DevSecOps, Platform Engineering or Cloud Engineering

• Experience applying security throughout the Secure Software Development Lifecycle (SSDLC), including secure design, code review, automated security testing, and vulnerability remediation.

• Familiarity with application security testing methodologies, including SAST, DAST, Software Composition Analysis (SCA), vulnerability assessments, and basic penetration testing concepts.

• Familiarity of threat modelling methodologies such as OWASP ASVS and STRIDE.

• Basic understanding of AWS and/or Azure cloud security concepts and cloud-native application security.

• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and integrating security tools using platforms such as GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, GitLab CI, Jenkins or similar.

• Experience developing software or the ability to read, understand, and troubleshoot code in one or more modern programming languages (Java, C#, Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, Go, etc.).

• Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills, with the ability to work collaboratively across cross-functional teams.

• Relevant industry certifications such as Security+, SSCP, CSSLP Associate, Azure Security Engineer Associate, AWS Security Specialty, or similar certifications are considered an asset

• We're looking for someone who is curious, collaborative, and eager to grow their application security expertise. If you don't meet every qualification but believe you'd be a great fit, we encourage you to apply.

AND IT’S GREAT TO HAVE:

• Experience supporting developer security training or security champion programs.

• Experience with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, CloudFormation, Bicep).

• Experience with container security (Docker, Kubernetes).

• Familiarity with OWASP Top 10, OWASP ASVS, CWE, and threat modeling methodologies.

• Experience securing AI-enabled applications or Large Language Model (LLM) integrations.

• Contributions to open-source projects or security automation initiatives.

• Familiarity with security and privacy standards such as LGPD, GDPR, PCI DSS, or ISO 27001 is desirable

• Understanding modern authentication and API security concepts (OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, JWT, REST API security) is desirable.

• Familiarity with Kubernetes, containers, and container security concepts is desirable.
