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.

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

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.

- Redgate is an equal opportunity employer, and we make hiring decisions based on skill, potential and alignment with our values.
