- Hands-on use of AppSec tooling such as SAST, DAST, dependency scanning, secrets detection, or similar
- Familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP) from an application security perspective
AI & Modern Security Practices
- Experience evaluating or implementing AI-driven security or engineering tools, including:
- LLM-powered code analysis or automation
- Agentic workflows or MCP-based toolchains
- Strong judgment around secure, reliable, and responsible AI usage
Consulting & Communication
- Ability to translate security findings into clear, practical guidance for engineering teams
