Summary: The AI-Assisted Vulnerability Testing Developer role focuses on enhancing application security through AI-assisted testing solutions. The position involves collaborating with security and engineering teams to implement and validate these solutions within enterprise code pipelines. The developer will also establish governance frameworks and support the transition from proof of concept to production-ready implementations. This is a remote position for a duration of three months with a client in the security domain.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Collaborate with security and engineering teams to evaluate and implement AI-assisted vulnerability testing solutions
  • Identify and assess viable tools and integrations, including AWS Security tools, Burp Suite, Snyk, and GitHub Actions
  • Design and execute Proof of Concept (POC) efforts to validate AI-assisted testing approaches
  • Enable and configure selected solutions within development and CI/CD environments
  • Drive the transition from POC to production-ready implementation
  • Define and establish governance frameworks, including training and enablement plans, documentation, and security scope
  • Support go-live execution, ensuring successful adoption across engineering pipelines
  • Develop a 2027 roadmap for pipeline integration, including scope definition and implementation planning
  • Assist with post-POC scaling and optimization efforts, ensuring long-term sustainability
  • Support licensing strategy, token usage, and funding considerations for AI-enabled security tools

Key Skills:

  • 5+ years of experience in application security, DevSecOps, or secure software development
  • Hands-on experience with application security testing tools (SAST, DAST, SCA)
  • CI/CD pipeline integrations (e.g., GitHub Actions, Jenkins)
  • Familiarity with AI/ML-assisted development or security tools, including large language model (LLM)-driven workflows
  • Experience working with cloud security tools, preferably within AWS environments
  • Strong understanding of application security principles (OWASP Top 10, vulnerability management)
  • Understanding of the software development lifecycle (SDLC)
  • Ability to translate security findings into practical engineering solutions
  • Experience with AI frameworks or LLM-integrated security workflows
  • Exposure to enterprise security governance and compliance frameworks
  • Knowledge of AI cost modeling, token usage optimization, or tooling licensing strategies
  • Strong problem-solving mindset with ability to evaluate emerging technologies
  • Excellent collaboration skills across engineering, security, and leadership teams
  • Ability to operate with high ownership in ambiguous, evolving environments
  • Effective communicator capable of driving technical alignment and adoption
