Application Security Specialist (Contract) at PSB Recruitment, Cheltenham, £Contract Rate

We’re supporting a global engineering organisation looking for a Contract Application Security specialist to help embed secure development practices across their software and related hardware products. This is likely to be a minimum of 6 months (outside IR35) with further extensions a strong likelihood.

You’ll work closely with engineers and leadership to drive secure SDLC, threat modelling, assess vulnerabilities, and support alignment with the EU Cyber Resilience Act.

Key experience:

• Product Security / Application Security
• Strong Understanding of software development environments
• Familiarity with threat modelling and vulnerability assessments
• Secure coding principles / OWASP
• Ability to engage with software teams and speak their language
• Relevant backgrounds may include AppSec, Product Security, DevSecOps, Secure SDLC, Penetration Testing or Offensive Security.

This role does require a couple of days in the Gloucestershire office so we recommend only relatively local candidates should apply.
