- Conducting code reviews
- Interacting with project teams to seek implementation and completion of security requirements
- Documenting processes based on established guidelines
- Identifying or writing exploit code for high complexity vulnerabilities such as remote code execution, memory corruption or SQL injection
- Defining pen test plans through stories/tasks for moderately complex applications such as those deployed to Relativity platform (ADS app) or those involved in security critical workflows (e.g. authentication)
- Collaborate with development, platform automation and security teams to create and continuously improve a simple to use standardized repeatable automated application pipeline that includes testing, security and automated deployment to development and QA environments.
- Troubleshoot environments as problems arise, test fixes, and perform follow-ups to ensure problems have been adequately resolved.
