Product Security Engineer - SAST/DAST
First seen by Alion on Oct 22, 2026.
About the Role:
At Techolution, we build enterprise AI-powered solutions that automate complex business processes and deliver measurable business outcomes. As our AI capabilities expand, securing applications, APIs, cloud environments, and intelligent AI-agent workflows is critical to protecting our products, customers, and enterprise data.
We are looking for a hands-on Product Security Engineer who thinks like an attacker, independently discovers and validates vulnerabilities beyond automated scan results, and works directly with engineering teams to secure our products.
Key Responsibilities:
- Application & API Security: Conduct hands-on penetration testing of web applications and APIs. Identify, exploit, and validate vulnerabilities involving authentication, authorization, access control, injection, business logic, and OWASP Top 10 risks.
- AI & Agent Security: Perform hands-on security assessments of LLM-powered applications, RAG pipelines, and AI-agent workflows. Investigate indirect prompt injection, sensitive data exfiltration, RAG poisoning, and trust-boundary bypasses.
- Exploit Validation & Root-Cause Analysis: Use Burp Suite or OWASP ZAP, manual testing, and source-code review to investigate vulnerabilities. Reproduce attack paths and recommend actionable technical fixes.
- Cloud & Infrastructure Security: Identify and validate security weaknesses involving cloud IAM, containers, Kubernetes/GKE, and CI/CD pipelines.
- Vulnerability Ownership & Remediation: Own security findings from discovery through verified closure. Prioritize vulnerabilities and work directly with engineering teams to implement fixes.
- Security Automation & Prevention: Develop and improve repeatable security testing workflows. Automate relevant vulnerability checks and integrate preventive security controls into CI/CD pipelines.
- Secure SDLC & Engineering Collaboration: Partner with developers and architects to incorporate security into application design, code development, and deployment.
- Security Reporting & Risk Reduction: Maintain visibility into vulnerabilities. Provide weekly security reports covering attack paths, severity, and remediation status.
- Continuous Security Improvement: Proactively assess evolving threats to enterprise applications and AI-powered systems.
Qualifications:
- Proven hands-on experience in Application Security or Product Security, with strong knowledge of web application security, API security, and OWASP Top 10.
- Ability to independently identify, exploit, and validate real-world vulnerabilities using Burp Suite, OWASP ZAP, and HTTP traffic analysis.
- Practical understanding of security risks in LLM-powered applications, RAG pipelines, and AI-agent workflows.
- Ability to review application code, trace vulnerabilities to root causes, and recommend practical fixes.
- Working knowledge of cloud security, IAM, containers, Kubernetes/GKE, and CI/CD pipelines.
- Experience prioritizing security findings, collaborating with developers on remediation, and driving vulnerabilities to closure.
- Familiarity with SAST, DAST, and SCA tools, and integrating security controls into development pipelines.
- Ability to clearly communicate exploitation paths, technical findings, and business risks to engineers and leadership.
