Senior Application Security Analyst
We are seeking a Senior Application Security Analyst to help strengthen the security of software applications throughout the development lifecycle. In this role, you will work closely with development, engineering, infrastructure, and product teams to identify, assess, and remediate security risks across web, mobile, cloud, and API-based applications. You will contribute to building a proactive security culture while helping teams deliver secure, reliable, and compliant solutions.
Key responsibilities include conducting threat modelling, application security reviews, and vulnerability assessments; analysing findings from static, dynamic, and software composition analysis tools; and supporting penetration testing activities. You will prioritise vulnerabilities according to business impact, provide clear remediation guidance, and track issues through to resolution. The role will also involve developing secure coding guidance, improving security requirements and design standards, supporting security champions, and contributing to incident investigations involving application-layer threats. You may also help define metrics and reports that demonstrate risk reduction and programme effectiveness.
The successful candidate will have substantial experience in application security, software development, security testing, or a closely related discipline. You should understand common application vulnerabilities and frameworks, including OWASP Top 10 risks, authentication and authorisation weaknesses, injection attacks, secure API design, cryptography fundamentals, and cloud security concepts. Experience with SAST, DAST, SCA, secret detection, vulnerability management, and penetration testing tools is expected, along with the ability to interpret technical findings and communicate them to both technical and non-technical audiences. Familiarity with secure software development lifecycles, DevSecOps practices, CI/CD pipelines, and scripting or programming languages such as Python, JavaScript, Java, or C# would be advantageous. Relevant professional certifications or equivalent practical experience are welcome.
