- Ensure application security practices align with audit, compliance, regulatory, and internal governance requirements
- Assist with application security exceptions, risk register entries, and governance reporting
- Develop and maintain application security reports and dashboards
- Track metrics such as application vulnerability aging, remediation performance, SLA adherence, scan coverage, policy violations, and pipeline gate outcomes
- Support executive, product, engineering, and operational reporting requirements
- Validate reporting accuracy, application ownership, repository mapping, and data quality
- Contribute to optimization of application security platforms and developer-facing security tooling
- Support automation initiatives for vulnerability ingestion, prioritization, ticketing, remediation tracking, and CI/CD pipeline integration
- Improve integration and data quality across application inventories, code repositories, CI/CD platforms, CMDB, and exposure management systems
- Evaluate opportunities to streamline developer remediation workflows and reduce friction in secure software delivery
- Serve as a subject matter expert for application security, secure development, and code-level vulnerability remediation activities
- Collaborate with Security Architecture, Application Security, Security Engineering, GRC, Application Development, DevOps, Cloud, Product, Data, and Platform teams
