As a specialist in Software and Secure Software Development, you will be responsible for developing, maintaining and improving our software development processes with a strong focus on security, compliance and quality.

* Monitoring process performance and driving data-driven improvements
* Providing guidance and training to teams regarding secure software development best practices
You will act as a key contributor in building a strong security culture within software development, ensuring that security is embedded by design - not added afterwards.

You likely have:
