AppSec Engineer

As an AppSec Engineer, you weave security into the way software gets built rather than bolting it on at the end. You set up tools that automatically scan code for weaknesses, run tests that simulate real attacks, and sit down with developers to model where a system could be threatened. On a typical day you might review a new feature for risky patterns, tune a scanner that keeps flagging false alarms, or lead a session where the team maps out how an attacker might target their app. You are the person who keeps security practical, so teams can move fast without leaving the door unlocked.
