Charlotte, North Carolina, United States WELLS FARGO BANK Full time
About this Position:

Wells Fargo is in search of a Senior Application Security Engineer, a pivotal technical role that can function as either an individual contributor or a team leader. This position requires extensive security expertise to support a diverse array of applications through the Enterprise Application Security Program (EASP), ensuring robust secure coding practices and governance for development teams. The role demands a profound understanding of current technologies, tools, and existing frameworks. You will lead intricate modeling, simulations, and analytical efforts within the security domain, acting as a subject matter expert and a technical resource for programming teams throughout the development, testing, and implementation phases.

Key Responsibilities:

In this capacity, you will direct, assist, and mentor development teams in the adoption of essential security capabilities, including secure design principles, security requirements, threat modeling, static analysis, software composition analysis, and application security posture management for both cloud and non-cloud environments. While strong coding skills are essential, daily coding tasks are not the primary focus of this role:
  • Education and Guidance: Lead defense and application teams through various attack scenarios, create proof of concepts when necessary, and offer remediation strategies for prevalent security vulnerabilities (e.g., XSS, Parameter Tampering, SQL Injection).
  • Security Risk Evaluation: Perform assessments to ensure adherence to corporate security policies and best practices, identifying and addressing vulnerabilities across networks, applications, and hardware.
  • Leadership and Communication: Provide leadership and technical direction to engineering teams, manage complex security challenges, and convey risks and mitigation strategies to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Security Solutions Development: Create and implement security solutions for intricate operational and integration challenges, collaborating closely with systems architects and application teams to guarantee secure software design and deployment.
  • Collaboration and Implementation: Work in partnership with the enterprise application security program to execute initiatives, including secure coding best practices, while facilitating communication and progress tracking within application teams.
  • Vulnerability Management: Utilize tools such as static analysis software (CheckMarx) to identify and remediate vulnerabilities, analyze trends, and report on vulnerability detection, remediation, and compliance.
Additional Responsibilities:
  • Lead complex technology initiatives with significant companywide impact.
  • Contribute to the development of standards and best practices for engineering complex and large-scale technology solutions.
  • Design, code, test, debug, and document for various projects and programs.
  • Review and assess complex, large-scale technology solutions against tactical and strategic business objectives.
  • Make informed decisions regarding the development of standard and companywide best practices for engineering and technology solutions.
  • Collaborate with key technical experts and senior technology teams to resolve intricate technical issues.
  • Lead projects, teams, or serve as a mentor to junior engineering staff.
Required Qualifications:
  • 5+ years of experience in Software Engineering or equivalent demonstrated through a combination of work experience, training, military experience, or education.
  • 5+ years of experience in information security applications and systems.
  • 5+ years of experience with web applications.
Desired Qualifications:
  • Expertise in common application security risks (OWASP Top 10, SANS/CWE Top 25).
  • Experience in developing applications using Java, .NET (preferred), C#, JavaScript, Python, or other modern object-oriented programming languages.
  • Familiarity with cloud security and environments (AWS, Azure, GCP) and associated security tools and services.
  • Experience managing automated application security testing tools, including Static and Dynamic Application Security Testing (SAST/DAST) and Software Composition Analysis (SCA).
  • Ability to provide strategic and tactical security guidance for secure application development.
  • Experience with DevSecOps practices and tools, including security integration into CI/CD pipelines.
  • Possession of relevant application security certifications (e.g., CISSP, CCSP, CSSLP, OSCP/ OSEP/OSWE).
  • Experience integrating application security tools into enterprise vulnerability management systems.
  • Strong understanding of secure application design principles, including authentication, authorization, logging, encryption, data masking, and secure data transmission.
  • Excellent technical and business writing skills, with the ability to effectively communicate plans and solutions to both technical and business units.
  • Ability to mentor less experienced engineering staff.
Job Expectations:
  • Availability for occasional after-hours technology support.
  • Remote work options are not available for this position.
  • Visa sponsorship is not available for this role.
Compensation:

The compensation for this position is competitive and may vary based on factors such as skills, experience, and work location.
Benefits:

Wells Fargo offers eligible employees a comprehensive benefits package, including health benefits, a 401(k) plan, paid time off, disability benefits, life insurance, parental leave, tuition reimbursement, and more.

Diversity and Inclusion:

Wells Fargo values diversity, equity, and inclusion in the workplace and welcomes applications from all qualified candidates, regardless of background or identity.
