We are currently seeking an Application Security Engineer to join UMG's global Tech Security & Identity organization.

The Application Security Engineer will serve as a trusted technical advisor, performing application security assessments, supporting secure software development practices, and helping engineering teams identify and address security risks early in the development process. This role combines hands-on technical expertise with collaboration across development and security teams to strengthen UMG's application security posture while enabling innovation.

The ideal candidate has experience in application security, secure software development, cloud-native technologies, and developer enablement, along with strong communication skills and a passion for building secure software.

How you'll CREATE:

  • Conduct application security testing using static application security testing (SAST), dynamic application security testing (DAST), software composition analysis (SCA), API security testing, and manual validation techniques.
  • Review source code and provide secure coding guidance based on OWASP best practices and secure development principles.
  • Partner with software engineering teams to identify security risks and recommend practical remediation strategies throughout the software development lifecycle.
  • Collaborate with DevOps teams to integrate application security testing into CI/CD pipelines and software delivery workflows.
  • Provide security architecture guidance for new applications, APIs, cloud-native services, and technology integrations.
  • Support implementation of modern authentication and authorization technologies, including OAuth, OpenID Connect (OIDC), SAML, and other identity standards.
  • Evaluate, implement, and maintain application security tools and help improve security testing coverage across the development lifecycle.
  • Develop automation and scripting to improve application security testing, reporting, and engineering workflows.
  • Participate in security reviews for new technologies, cloud services, and third-party applications.
  • Support investigation and remediation of application-layer security incidents and vulnerabilities when required.
  • Create reusable security guidance, reference architectures, and technical documentation to improve secure development practices across engineering teams.
  • Deliver secure coding guidance and developer education to promote security-by-design principles.
  • Collaborate with security, infrastructure, and identity teams to continuously improve enterprise application security capabilities.

Bring your VIBE:

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Security, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 5+ years of experience in Application Security, Security Engineering, Software Engineering, or a related discipline with a security focus.
  • Experience performing application security assessments, threat modeling, and secure architecture reviews.
  • Strong understanding of secure coding principles and common application vulnerabilities, including the OWASP Top 10 and OWASP API Security Top 10.
  • Experience with application security testing technologies including SAST, DAST, SCA, API security testing, and penetration testing methodologies.
  • Experience working with modern application architectures, REST APIs, microservices, and cloud-native technologies.
  • Experience integrating security into CI/CD pipelines and DevSecOps workflows.
  • Experience working within AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud Platform environments.
  • Knowledge of modern authentication and authorization technologies including OAuth, OpenID Connect (OIDC), SAML, and JWT.
  • Understanding of security frameworks and standards including OWASP, NIST Cybersecurity Framework, and ISO 27001.
  • Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills with the ability to work effectively across technical and non-technical teams.

  • Experience developing automation using Python, PowerShell, or similar scripting languages.
  • Experience performing security assessments of cloud-native applications and APIs.

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.
