We’re hiring a Senior Security Engineer to take full ownership of vulnerability management and embed security into the heart of engineering. This is a high-impact, high-visibility role where you’ll influence how software is built, not just review it after the fact.Responsibilities:
  • Own the vulnerability management programme end-to-end
  • Embed security across the SDLC —from design to deployment
  • Be a visible voice in engineering —raising issues early, not reacting late
  • Manage inputs from SAST, pen testing, and bug bounty programmes
  • Lead responsible disclosure & CVE coordination with external researchers
  • Secure cloud environments across AWS, Azure, Kubernetes & containers
  • Drive standards for hardened, secure base images
  • Escalate risks when needed—you’ll have leadership backing
Requirements:
  • Proven experience in vulnerability management within a tech environment
  • Strong understanding of how security fits into engineering workflows
  • Hands-on cloud security experience (AWS, Azure, Kubernetes)
  • Experience with CI/CD and code scanning tools
  • A proactive mindset —you speak up, challenge, and influence
  • Experience with responsible disclosure / external researchers
  • Comfortable operating cross-location (Dublin ↔ Porto)
Nice to Have:
  • Terraform / IaC security experience
  • SaaS or product-led environment exposure
  • Pen testing coordination
  • Threat modelling / secure-by-design knowledge
Why This Role?:
  • Own and shape a growing product security function
  • Work directly with engineering & product teams
  • Strong backing from leadership to drive real change
  • International exposure across two key tech hubs
If you’re someone who leans into engineering, not away from it , and wants to build security into products, not bolt it on, this is worth a conversation.APPLY NOWShare this jobInterested in this job?Save JobGet similar jobs like these by email:Create Alert
