- Extensive experience with SBOM management, secure coding practices, and automation in a DevSecOps environment.
- Proven ability to work with AI/ML technologies for security monitoring and anomaly detection.
Technical Expertise:
- Deep Understanding: Expertise in CI/CD tools and platforms (e.g., Jenkins, GitLab CI, CircleCI) and their seamless integration with security tools to ensure robust and continuous security within the development pipeline.
- Secure Coding: Proficiency in secure coding practices across multiple programming languages (e.g., Java, Python, JavaScript, Shell, C) with an emphasis on preventing vulnerabilities from entering the codebase.
- Application Security: Strong expertise in software composition analysis (SCA), static analysis security testing (SAST), and dynamic analysis security testing (DAST) to identify and remediate vulnerabilities early in the software development lifecycle.
- Cloud Security: Extensive experience with cloud security automation, particularly in AWS and Azure environments, to ensure security policies are consistently enforced across cloud platforms.
- Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Familiarity with tools like Terraform, CloudFormation, or similar, to automate and secure cloud infrastructure deployments.
- Governance: Familiarity with regulatory requirements and frameworks (e.g., ISO 27001, NIST) as they relate to software development and security.
Certifications:
- Relevant certifications such as Certified DevSecOps Professional (CDP), Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP), or similar are highly desirable.
Soft Skills:
- Excellent communication skills, with the ability to explain complex security concepts to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
