Cyber Security Consultant

We are seeking a mid-level engineer to identify, manage, and remediate application vulnerabilities throughout the software development lifecycle. This role plays a key part in maintaining our security posture across web, mobile, and cloud-based applications. Ideal candidates will have deep technical curiosity and practical experience with vulnerability scanning, security assessments, prioritization, and coordination of remediation efforts.

Roles & Responsibilities

• Responsibilities
• • Execute and support application vulnerability assessments (SAST, DAST, SCA, and manual code review), ensuring findings are accurate, actionable, and relevant to application risk.
• • Validate scanner results, perform false-positive analysis, and track findings through remediation, including retesting to confirm effective fixes.
• • Manage multiple application security initiatives concurrently while meeting strict timelines in a fast paced environment.
• • Prioritize vulnerabilities based on business impact, exploitability, exposure, and likelihood, using industry best practices (e.g., CVSS scoring).
• • Develop and maintain dashboards and reports tracking vulnerability metrics such as severity distribution, remediation SLAs, and mean time to remediation (MTTR).
• • Support the integration of security scanning and vulnerability workflows into CI/CD pipelines, leveraging existing tooling and automation.
• • Facilitate remediation planning by providing actionable recommendations and coordinating root cause analysis.
• • Support threat modeling and application risk assessments, with a focus on discovering insecure design patterns.
• • Participate in high‑severity or zero‑day vulnerability response activities, including impact analysis and coordinated remediation efforts, as needed.
• • Provide input into policies and standards related to application and cloud security controls.

Technical Requirements

• • Bachelor’s degree in information technology, Cybersecurity, Computer Science, or related discipline—or equivalent professional experience.
• • 5-7 years of relevant experience in application security and/or vulnerability management.
• • Solid understanding of common vulnerability classes (e.g., OWASP Top 10) and secure architecture principles.
• • Proficiency in using Burp Suite for manual security testing of web applications and APIs, including validation of automated findings and identification of complex authentication, authorization, and business‑logic vulnerabilities.
• • Hands-on experience with tools such as Burp Suite, Fortify, Checkmarx, SonarQube, Black Duck, Tenable, and common network discovery tools (e.g., Nmap).
• • Familiarity with NIST, MITRE ATT&CK, and CIS benchmarks.
• • Programming/scripting proficiency in languages such as Python, Java, .NET, or similar.
• • Excellent documentation, communication, and stakeholder engagement skills.

Additional

• • Professional certifications (e.g., Security+, SSCP, GWAPT, or pursuing CISSP, OSCP).
• • Experience using the ServiceNow platform for vulnerability or incident tracking.
• • Proficiency in Azure cloud and Azure DevOps environments.
• • Experience using Power BI or similar tools to visualize vulnerability metrics and remediation trends for technical and non-technical stakeholders.
