About the Role

Security Engineer Experience: 3-5 years Location: Coimbatore & Bangalore  <h4>Who we are and What we do?</h4> AppViewX is trusted by the world’s leading organizations to reduce risk, ensure compliance, and increase visibility through automated certificate lifecycle management. At AppViewX, you will get to work with our AVX ONE platform that provides complete certificate lifecycle management and PKI-as-a-Service using streamlined automation workflows to prevent outages, reduce security incidents and enable crypto-agility. Glimpse of our Team The core of AppViewX lies within its robust, flexible low code platform which is being built by the architecture team. The team designs ready to consume solutions that efficiently orchestrate and meet the scalable demands of our ever-growing customers. If you are someone who would like to develop solutions using cutting-edge technologies like Kubernetes, Containers and Service Mesh and design this low code platform then this is the right place for you!! Why this role exists  We are hiring a Security Engineer who lives at the intersection of SOC alerting and vulnerability remediation — the work that connects 'something looks wrong' to 'something is fixed.' You will own the close-the-loop motion: triage SOC alerts and vulnerability findings, prioritize against business context and threat intel, assign and chase down remediation owners, and measure what actually got fixed. AI leverage: AI SAST AppSec triage, CSPM for cloud findings, AISOC for L1/L2 alert handling, and your own agents for the repetitive parts of the remediation loop.  What you will own  <ul> <li data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="1" data-list-defn-props="{"335552541":1,"335559685":360,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"singleLevel"}" data-aria-posinset="1" data-aria-level="1">SOC alert triage and response.  Operate primarily as a SOC engineer and analyst. Triage alerts.
