• Proven experience with security monitoring and detection platforms, incident response tools, vulnerability management systems, and application security solutions including SAST/DAST tooling.
• Strong technical understanding of CI/CD pipelines, DevOps practices, and how they integrate with static code analysis tools, container scanning, and application security workflows to balance maintainability with security.
• Hands-on experience with cloud infrastructure security, particularly AWS and Kubernetes, combined with the ability to assess risk versus implementation speed for security tooling and initiatives.
• A data-driven mindset with strong problem-solving abilities, leveraging metrics and proof-of-concepts to make informed decisions, coupled with excellent teamwork and time management skills to prioritize competing demands effectively.
