• Contract opportunity.
• Hybrid work environment with Charlotte, NC strongly preferred.
• Opportunity to work at the intersection of data analysis, application security, software development, and data governance.
• Exposure to enterprise vulnerability management, source control practices, secure development processes, and sensitive-data protection.

How You Will Make An Impact

• Analyze application security and vulnerability data to help distinguish legitimate security risks from false-positive findings.
• Support efforts to investigate findings involving exposed secrets, credentials, tokens, passwords, SaaS applications, and other application security vulnerabilities.
• Navigate source-control repositories and review information associated with code changes, repositories, commits, pushes, pulls, and pull requests.
• Partner with technical and security stakeholders to understand vulnerabilities and communicate findings in clear business and technical language.
• Apply secure SDLC concepts when evaluating application and software-development risks.
• Support data-governance activities involving sensitive information, including PHI and other protected data.
