The posting

Who are we?

Checkmarx is the leader in application security, ensuring that enterprises worldwide can secure their application development from code to cloud. Our consolidated platform and services address the needs of enterprises by improving security and reducing TCO, while simultaneously building trust between AppSec, developers, and CISOs. At Checkmarx, we believe it’s not just about finding risk, but remediating it across the entire application footprint and software supply chain with one seamless process for all relevant stakeholders. We are honored to serve more than 1,800 customers, including 40 percent of all Fortune 100 companies, such as Siemens, Airbus, Salesforce, Stellantis, Adidas, Walmart, and Sanofi.

The Checkmarx Security Research group seeks a senior, curious, detail-oriented Application Security Analyst to join our team in Braga. Your role will include an in-depth understanding of vulnerabilities and how they occur in the code, from open-source libraries to proprietary code, and involvement with the entire security research group.

On the one hand, you will become familiar with our family of security products, such as SAST, DAST, SCA, KICS, and others, while gaining proficiency in secure code analysis. Your contribution will be essential to improving our engines and delivering more accurate results. On the other hand, your work can include scripting and leveraging AI to automate and improve internal processes, helping support new product features, and staying up to date with the latest Application Security trends.

Apart from the Security Research group, you will collaborate with multiple teams, including Product Management, R&D, and others.

If you are passionate about application security and eager to take Checkmarx products to the next level, we are looking for you!

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
