We're looking for a curious and motivated software engineer who wants to build a career in cybersecurity.
This is an exciting opportunity to join our Information Security team and develop hands-on experience across a broad range of security disciplines. You'll work alongside experienced security professionals while applying your software engineering skills to help protect applications, systems, data, and business processes.

If you're passionate about technology, enjoy solving problems, and want to grow into a well-rounded security professional, we'd love to hear from you
Requirements
What You'll Be Doing
- Review applications, APIs, and software solutions for security risks and recommend improvements.
- Support security testing activities, including vulnerability assessments and penetration testing.
- Assist with supplier, software, and project security reviews.
- Help manage and track security vulnerabilities through remediation.
- Contribute to risk assessments and security compliance activities.
- Support customer security questionnaires, audits, and assurance requests.
- Assist with day-to-day security operations and security tooling administration.
- Develop scripts and automations to improve security processes and reduce manual effort.
- Work closely with Engineering, IT, Compliance, Legal, Procurement, and business stakeholders
