Lead Security Consultant (m/f)

You will act as the Lead Security Consultant and content lead for AppSec Testing, responsible for shaping the offering, developing people through content and expertise, supporting presales, and delivering client-facing consulting work.

This is a senior, expert-level role with high autonomy and strategic influence, positioned at the intersection of:

• Application Security Testing architecture
• Consulting & client advisory
• Business development & presales

Success Indicators

• Define and structure the AppSec Testing competency - practical scope, service catalog, methodologies (SAST, DAST, Pentesting, DevSecOps, SDLC Security) 
• Become a key AppSec advisor in presales and delivery - Active contribution to RFI/RFPs, solution design, and client workshops
• Act as content lead for AppSec Testing - Develop know-how, standards, and guidance for consultants and pentesters working in AppSec-related engagements
• Develop & Certify Yourself - We support but also demand relevant certifications for targeted technology and personal development

What's in it for you

• Ownership of a strategic security competency, not just delivery work
• High level of autonomy and trust from security leadership
• A combination of consulting, architecture, and hands-on chargeable project work
• Real influence on how AppSec testing is sold, delivered, and scaled

• Support presales activities (RFI/RFP, solution design, estimations)
• Coordinate AppSec Testing activities across multiple projects and clients
• Collaborate closely with pentesters, developers, and security consultants
• Represent Trask externally as an Application Security Testing thought leader
• Work chargeably on client projects – this is not a purely strategic role

Note: This role is not a heavy people management position. People development is driven primarily through content leadership, mentoring, and expertise.

• Senior experience in Application Security Testing (SAST, DAST, Pentesting)
• Strong understanding of secure SDLC, DevSecOps, OWASP standards
• Consulting mindset with the ability to communicate security risk to non-technical stakeholders
