About the role

We're looking for an Product Security Lead to embed security into our SDLC and own end-to-end VAPT remediation across our lending product suite (LOS/LMS, rules engine, analytics). You'll partner with engineering and platform teams to design, build, and operate secure-by-default products used by leading financial institutions.

What you'll do

  • Own the Secure SDLC
    for microservices (Java/Spring Boot), Node/TypeScript backends, Angular UIs, and Android/Flutter apps—policy, standards, and release gates.
  • Build and run CI/CD security controls:
    SAST, SCA/SBOM, secrets & IaC checks, container/image scanning; automate DAST/IAST in pipelines; enforce block-on-fail where needed.
  • Drive VAPT end-to-end:
    scope with internal/third-party testers, triage findings, set SLAs, track remediation to closure; verify fixes and prevent regressions.
  • Threat model & review designs/code
    for authN/Z, crypto, session management, API security, data protection/PII, and high-risk modules (payments, onboarding, documents).
  • Cloud & platform security (AWS):
    baselines for EC2/ALB, RDS/KMS, S3 policies, network segmentation, mTLS/JWT service auth, Vault-backed secrets, and key rotation.
  • Observability & governance:
    wire security logs to SIEM, define AppSec KPIs (MTTR, SLA adherence, gate coverage), and report risk posture to engineering leadership.
  • Upskill teams:
    run secure coding workshops, build a "security champions" program, create playbooks/runbooks for common vulns and abuse cases.

What you'll bring

  • 7–12 years in
    Application/Product Security
    , including leading Secure SDLC and VAPT remediation in a product engineering environment.
  • Hands-on with
    SAST/SCA/DAST/IAST
    , code reviews, and threat modeling (e.g., STRIDE); ability to read code in
    Java/Spring
    ,
    Node/TypeScript
    , and
    Angular
    .
  • Prior experience in integrating security checks and gating critera with CI platform like SonarQube
  • Strong grasp of
    OWASP Top 10, API Security Top 10, ASVS, CWE
    , secrets management, and CI/CD hardening.
  • AWS security
    experience: IAM, KMS, RDS encryption, SG/WAF, CloudTrail/GuardDuty; familiarity with Docker/Kubernetes and
    IaC
    (Terraform/CloudFormation).
  • Experience running vendor/3rd-party
    VAPT
    cycles and landing fixes to SLA with engineering teams.
  • Awareness of compliance contexts (ISO 27001/SOC 2, RBI guidance,
    DPDP Act
    ) and secure handling of PII/financial data.
  • Nice to have: mobile app security (OWASP MASVS), OAuth2/OIDC, mTLS, WebAuthn/modern auth patterns; Kafka, Redis, NGINX, Consul, Vault.
  • Certifications (optional, a plus):
    OSWE/OSCP
    ,
    GWAPT/GWEB
    ,
    CSSLP
    .

What success looks like (first 6 months)


  • 95%
    of Critical/High findings closed
    within SLA
    across services.
  • All repos behind
    security gates
    with SBOMs published;
    zero hard-coded secrets
    ; baseline threat models for top services.
  • Repeatable VAPT → remediation → verification loop with dashboards visible to leadership.

Why join us

  • Build security for
    mission-critical fintech products
    at scale.
  • High ownership, direct impact, and the chance to set the bar for product security across our stack.
  • Collaborative culture with strong engineering, rapid delivery, and growth opportunities.
