Staff Application Security Engineer
apollo io · Remote, United States · Posted 20 days ago
Set the AppSec standard for AI and agent features at Apollo, shaping cross-team roadmaps so secure patterns become the default rather than a single expert's job.
The Staff Application Security Engineer leads application security strategy for Apollo’s Security department and delivers it through hands-on work and technical leadership. This role takes on the hardest AppSec problems across product, platform, and AI-powered features, including problems with no established playbook.
The role shapes the roadmaps of Engineering, Product, and Platform teams so secure patterns become the default, and sets the AppSec standard that helps many teams build securely without relying on any single person.
Key Responsibilities
AppSec strategy, standards, and influence
- Lead Apollo’s multi-year AppSec strategy and turn it into multi-quarter, cross-team initiatives that move Security department KRs. Report progress, risks, and tradeoffs to Security leadership on a regular cadence.
- Shape Engineering, Product, Platform, and Data roadmaps so security work is planned in early, and represent AppSec in cross-department decisions.
- Set the secure design, code review, and risk model standards used across the department and adjacent engineering teams, including expectations for AI-generated and agent-generated code.
- Mentor senior engineers and security champions, grow the champions program, and help raise the hiring bar, so the AppSec program does not depend on one person’s expertise.
Secure architecture and vulnerability depth
