• Configure and maintain security controls for Web Application Firewalls (WAF), API gateways, and ingress layers

Verification, Testing & Defect Management

• Define security testing requirements and acceptance criteria aligned to SDLC controls
• Implement and maintain automated security testing workflows
• Validate remediation of application and pipeline security findings
• Maintain traceability between findings, fixes, Jira tickets, and generated audit evidence

Operations, Incident Support & Continuous Improvement

• Participate in incident response activities related to application, pipeline, and identity security
• Support root-cause analysis and implement preventative improvements through enhanced observability and security telemetry
• Validate backup, restore, and disaster recovery controls with a security and access-control focus
• Define and track security metrics supporting continuous improvement and SOC evidence requirements

Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Security, Information Systems or a related field

• Minimum 5 years of experience in DevSecOps, application security, or secure platform engineering

• Demonstrated experience implementing and operating security controls across CI/CD, cloud, and SDLC environments

• Core networking concepts (VPC/VNet, DNS, TCP/IP, TLS, load balancing, proxies, firewall/NSG)

• Windows and Linux systems (processes, permissions, filesystems, networking, troubleshooting)

• Git-based workflows (branching strategies, pull requests, releases)

• Scripting and automation (PowerShell, Bash, and/or Python)

• Strong hands-on experience implementing DevSecOps security controls, including:

• Secure SDLC practices and OWASP guidance (from a control, tooling, and risk perspective)

• Azure cloud security and identity services (Entra ID, Azure B2C/External ID)

• CI/CD pipelines, Git-based workflows, and build/deploy automation

• Containers and orchestration fundamentals (Docker, Kubernetes) and Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Ansible)

• Vulnerability management tooling (SAST, DAST, SCA, image scanning)

Preferred Qualifications - Security Certifications
