About the role

  • ABOUT REDGATE Redgate brings together people who want to do their best work in an environment built on trust, accountability and collaboration.
  • AI handles the heavy lifting, and our people control the judgement.
  • Everyone at Redgate works with Claude, giving you access to the best AI tools from day one.

Responsibilities

  • This role gives our product teams a trusted security partner who can embed good practice into everyday delivery, strengthen how we detect and prevent issues, and help security keep pace with how quickly we build.
  • Your application will be reviewed by a person. We don't use AI or automated tools to assess applications, and every profile is read by one of our Talent Partners.
  • We believe that people do their best work in an environment built on respect, fairness and trust, and that diverse perspectives lead to better outcomes.
  • We build solutions that help data professionals securely manage the data and databases their organisations depend on, a space that's only becoming more critical as systems scale, data regulations increase and AI adoption accelerates.
  • You'll be one of the first people building out Redgate's product security function, with real influence over how it takes shape rather than joining something already set in stone.
  • You'll help teams build, ship and operate secure software by defining requirements, improving detection and prevention through SAST and DAST, supporting application security governance and running threat modelling.
  • Partner with engineering and product teams to define and operationalise security requirements across the full SDLC, from design through to release.
  • Own or co-own application security governance, including secure-by-default standards, patterns and risk acceptance processes.
  • Drive SAST and DAST adoption and quality, from tool tuning through to triage workflows and severity calibration.
  • Support threat modelling for new features, architectural changes and high-risk services, turning findings into actionable engineering work.

Requirements

  • Strong knowledge of the OWASP Top 10 and practical mitigation patterns, with experience implementing or improving SAST/DAST processes and reducing false positives.
  • Ability to translate security risk into actionable engineering priorities, balancing risk, delivery timelines and operational realities.

Skills

  • Redgate brings together people who want to do their best work in an environment built on trust, accountability and collaboration.

Compensation

  • £60,000 to £75,000, depending on experience
  • Salary range: £60,000 to £75,000, depending on experience

Benefits

  • Monthly wellbeing allowance and generous paid time off

Company info

  • domain experts amplified by AI, delivering customer value at a pace our peers can't match.
  • WHY JOIN OUR PRODUCT SECURITY TEAM?
  • This is specialist security work: you'll be defining standards, governance and practice for engineering teams to work with, not a general engineering delivery role.
  • Security carries real weight here: you'll have the backing to do the job properly, not just sign off on delivery timelines.
  • As a Product Security Engineer, you'll embed security into the software development lifecycle across multiple product teams.
  • Provide product security guidance for cloud-native environments, including AWS and containerised workloads.
  • Hands-on product or application security experience within a modern SDLC, including requirements, design review, secure coding guidance and release support.
  • Working understanding of cloud and container security in an AWS and Docker environment, and comfort reviewing code across a primarily C# ecosystem.
  • Strong communication skills, with the ability to build trust and influence engineering teams without formal authority, including when requirements or ownership aren't yet fully defined.
