Responsibilities
- Lead the end-to-end implementation, configuration, and integration of code scanning platforms across the enterprise.

- Pioneer and implement DevSecOps governance frameworks and security guardrails utilizing AI capabilities and LLM tools.
- Establish automated policy enforcement, AI-assisted code remediation guidance, and smart threat modeling workflows.
- Define policies and standards for secure AI deployment, AI code-assistant usage, and data privacy governance.
- Translate complex application security, compliance, and regulatory requirements into actionable user stories, engineering epics, and implementation roadmaps.
- Work closely with software engineers, security architects, DevOps specialists, and product leaders to embed security seamlessly into the SDLC.
- Develop operational runbooks, technical governance documentation, and metrics dashboards.
Requirements
- Proven DevSecOps Implementation: Demonstrated track record of implementing and deploying enterprise SAST, SCA, and DAST tooling.
- AI Security & Governance: Practical experience leveraging AI/LLM technologies to enhance DevSecOps governance, automated code review, or security policy enforcement.
- Business Analysis Capability: Strong BA background with demonstrated experience writing technical requirements, mapping workflows, and defining security standards.
- CI/CD Pipeline Integration: Deep experience embedding automated security scanning stages into modern CI/CD systems.
- Communication & Stakeholder Management: Excellent communication skills with the ability to influence engineering culture, articulate security risks, and drive adoption.
