Job Summary

We are looking for an Application Security Engineer to help secure our eDiscovery and AI platform across the full software development lifecycle. The role is focused on manual secure code review and application security testing, and on partnering with engineering teams to find and fix vulnerabilities before they reach production. The work is hands-on and technically varied. You will review code across multiple products, languages, and frameworks, own reviews end to end, and help build the tooling and automation that support them. A successful candidate is a strong technical communicator who can work independently, write clear and evidence-backed findings, and drive them to closure with engineering.

• Produce complete, evidence-backed review reports with severity ratings, reproduction detail, and remediation guidance, tracked to closure in Jira against defined SLAs.
• Partner with engineering teams to triage and remediate findings from code review, SAST/DAST, and other assessment tooling.

Security Engineering & SDLC

• Contribute to security reviews for new products, features, and services.
• Provide input on secure design, architecture, and implementation decisions.
• Apply secure development lifecycle practices, including threat modeling and security testing.
• Own dependency and supply chain risk (SCA, SBOM, vulnerability triage) and help extend security controls into CI/CD pipelines.
• Partner with Security Operations and Infrastructure teams to build security tooling and automation.

Influence & Enablement

• Professional experience building or reviewing threat models.
• Experience with SAST, DAST, and SCA tooling (e.g. Semgrep, CodeQL, Burp Suite, Dependency-Track).
• Ability to read and review unfamiliar codebases across multiple languages (C#/.NET, Node/TypeScript, Java, Python, Ruby).
• Understanding of the HTTP protocol, web frameworks, and web and cloud architectures.
• Understanding of cryptography as it appears in application code: key handling, secrets management, encryption in transit and at rest.
• Familiarity with multi-tenant SaaS security, particularly tenant isolation and access control.
• Experience using AI-assisted tooling (e.g. Claude Code, Copilot) in code review or triage workflows.
• Familiarity with LLM/GenAI application security: prompt injection, insecure output handling, data leakage via retrieval pipelines. OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications.
