- Solid understanding of web app security (OWASP Top 10, API security, auth flows, input validation)
- Familiarity with AWS/Kubernetes security
- Strong programming skills (Python, Go, or JavaScript) to build tools, write secure code, and contribute to developer libraries
- Proven track record in partnering with product and engineering teams to drive security adoption without slowing down velocity
- Strong AWS security skills (IAM, KMS, Security Hub, GuardDuty, WAF)
