Do you want to be at the forefront of protecting our society against cyber threats? We are looking for an Application Security Engineer to team up with the most dedicated team of cyber specialists in our Secure Development domain.

About Truesec – A Leading Cybersecurity Company

Since 2005, Truesec has been a native cybersecurity company, driven by one single purpose: Creating safety and sustainability in a digital world by preventing cyber breach and minimizing impact.

Over the years, we’ve earned the trust of organizations worldwide and gained a strong reputation internationally. Our team consists of dedicated specialists covering the entire spectrum of cybersecurity – with capabilities in Predict, Prevent, Protect, Respond, and Recover.

Today, we employ around 200 employees – and as cybercrime grows, we need to grow. To support that goal, we are now looking for an Application Security Expert who wants to create advanced security solutions in our Secure Development domain.

Secure Development

Applications and custom solutions are currently popular targets for threat actors. In
modern application development, security must be present throughout all aspects of the development process. Our engagements span from AppSec-related security
workshops, educating organizations in secure coding and DevSecOps, to longer
assignments where we write code responsibly as integrated team members. We are a cyber tech company with our own custom software and services that we leverage both during assignments and with our clients.

The Role

Over the course of a year at Truesec you will meet many customers and their 
development organizations. Some you might only see for a day, others for longer; the important thing is that you’ll help them develop more secure solutions! That might be by helping customers form secure development processes, or in more targeted assignments, audit their proposed or already developed systems. You may also help them through workshops or education, code reviews, or perhaps with threat modelling exercises. As you can understand, the needs and techniques could differ depending on the project. It is therefore important to us that you feel confident in both your experience and skillset.

We generally work in pairs or teams during our assignments, not only so you feel the safety and support of the organization, but also because we want to create the most value for our customers. Staying up to date is important in our field, and to enable that, we encourage continuous learning during work hours as well as conference visits and knowledge sharing with colleagues.

Your Potential Background

You have a thorough background in writing code and software design, broad 
knowledge in application security, and have possibly worked actively within the field during the last five years.

Due to the sensitivity in our assignments, Swedish citizenship, citizenship in an EU country, or a Swedish work permit is a requirement for this position.

In short, we believe your previous experience could include:
• DevSecOps and secure coding practices.
• Software architecture and design.
• Programming skills in one or more languages, preferably within either Java, C#, C/C++, Python, JavaScript, or Go.

If you have experience in any of the following, we will consider it a bonus:
• Cryptography/Authentication/Authorization.
• OAuth 2/OpenID Connect/JWT.
• Distributed systems/Docker/Kubernetes.
• AWS, Azure, or GCP.
• Threat modeling and security assessments of code.
• Penetration testing.
• SAST/DAST tools.
• Vulnerability management.

Join Our Mission Toward a Safe Digital Future

If you truly want to make a difference and make our world a little bit safer, this is the place for you. At Truesec, you'll get to be at the forefront of fighting cybercrime instead of reading about it in the news. This is your chance to be part of an exciting journey in a leading cybersecurity company - and learn from some of the best in their field.

So, are you ready to team up with the most dedicated team of experts and be part of a meaningful mission? Then we are excited to get to know you!
