This role exists to embed security expertise directly into how our engineering teams build and ship software: setting the standards, running the threat modelling, and making the judgement calls that keep pace with delivery instead of slowing it down.\nAbout Redgate\nRedgate brings together people who want to do their best work in an environment built on trust, accountability, and collaboration.\nWe build solutions that help data professionals securely manage the data and databases their organisations depend on, a space that's only becoming more critical as systems scale, data regulations increase, and AI adoption accelerates.\nAI at Redgate\nBy 2028, Redgate will operate as an expert-plus-agent company: domain experts amplified by AI, delivering customer value at a pace our peers can't match. AI handles the heavy lifting, our people control the judgement. Everyone at Redgate works with Claude, giving you access to the best AI tools from day one.\nWhy Join Our Product Security Team\nYou'll shape how security works across multiple product teams, rather than enforcing policy from the sidelines.\nThere's real scope to specialise in emerging areas like AI security, work most security roles don't get exposure to yet.\nWe value pragmatic, real risk reduction over checkbox compliance, so the judgement you bring carries genuine weight.\nAbout the Role\nThis role sits within our Product Security function, embedded across multiple product and engineering teams rather than a single one. You'll define and operationalise security requirements throughout the SDLC, from initial design through to release, with real authority to make independent security calls rather than deferring to what a scanner tells you. It's a role built on trust: teams will come to you for guidance, and the judgement you bring to triage, threat modelling, and governance decisions will shape how security actually gets done here.\nPartner directly with engineering and product teams to define and operationalise security requirements across the full SDLC\nOwn or co-own application security governance: secure-by-default standards, patterns, guardrails, and risk exceptions\nLead threat modelling for new features and architectural changes, turning findings into practical engineering work\nDrive SAST/DAST adoption and quality, from tool tuning to severity calibration and developer-facing triage guidance\nSupport product teams adopting AI, including LLMs, SLMs, and MCP, giving you visibility into work most security roles wouldn't touch\nWhat Makes You a Great Fit\nHands-on product or application security experience, embedding security practices across a modern software development lifecycle\nAbility to review code and communicate security issues clearly to developers, primarily within a C# ecosystem, with exposure to Java or Python\nStrong knowledge of the OWASP Top 10 and practical mitigation patterns\nExperience implementing or improving SAST/DAST processes: tool tuning, triage workflows, and reducing signal to noise\nWorking understanding of cloud and container security fundamentals, ideally with AWS and Docker\nWhat We Offer\nSalary range: £60,000 to £75,000, subject to experience\nHybrid working: home and Cambridge office\nMonthly wellbeing allowance and generous paid time off\nGenuine investment in learning, development, and career progression\nPrivate health insurance\nSee our full list of benefits here - Careers At Redgate - Benefits\nWhat Happens Next?\nYour application will be reviewed by a person.
