Responsibilities

  • Define, build, and operate application vulnerability identification, triage, and remediation capabilities across consumer products, internal tools, and GraphQL APIs.
  • Assess and operate AppSec tooling for static and dynamic testing, software supply-chain risk detection, and secrets scanning, integrating findings into GitHub, Linear, and Slack workflows.
  • Own and mature the HackerOne bug bounty program, including report triage, researcher relationships, and remediation follow-through.
  • Lead threat modeling and security design reviews for services, APIs, and mobile features, converting findings into rules, lint checks, and CI guardrails.
  • Build AI agents and automated workflows for vulnerability triage, exploit validation, and remediation pull-request drafting.
  • Partner with engineering teams to harden authentication, authorization, input validation, GraphQL services, and Kubernetes workloads.
  • Build offensive security capabilities through internal testing, red-team exercises, and adversarial analysis.
  • Establish secure-by-default standards for AI-enabled applications, MCP servers, and agent-driven workflows.

  • Strong understanding of application and API vulnerability classes, including GraphQL, REST, and gRPC security issues.
  • Practical threat modeling and security design review experience.
  • Experience with cloud and container security on AWS and Kubernetes, including identity and access management, secrets management, and CI/CD pipeline security.
  • Demonstrated experience building agentic systems and automation that replace reactive security work.
  • Ability to operate autonomously in ambiguous environments and apply a business-enablement security mindset.
  • Preferred experience with penetration testing, API or mobile security, red-team operations, bug bounty or coordinated disclosure programs, mobile application security, AI/ML pipeline security, agent frameworks, or MCP integrations.
  • OSCP, OSWE, or similar offensive security certification is a bonus.
