Review the code for major new functionality to ensure security best practices are followed. Review new tickets in our bug bounty program ( and use your system design and threat modeling knowledge to reproduce, define risk and mitigating controls and propose a fix.  A call or two with Development, Product Management teams to discuss security-related issues Pen test a new feature in a staging environment with Burp Pro Assist the compliance team on a privacy-related project Provide technical advice in response to occasional questions from developers and other members of the security team
