Product Security Engineer – Long-term contract opportunity!

  • €350–€400 per day

  • Initial 6-month contract with strong long-term potential

  • High-Calibre Product Security Team

A global technology organisation whose products support critical healthcare environments worldwide is expanding its Product Security function and looking for an engineer with a strong background in Application Security and vulnerability assessment.

This is a highly technical role focused on identifying, analysing, and validating security vulnerabilities across a range of products and applications. You’ll act as a key security resource within the product development lifecycle, helping to determine real-world risk, investigate exploitability, and ensure security issues are accurately assessed before remediation decisions are made.

Working closely with software engineers, architects, and product teams, you’ll be responsible for acting as the first line of defence for Product Security investigations, independently assessing vulnerabilities, validating findings, and determining whether identified risks are genuinely exploitable within the product environment.

The organisation offers the stability and resources of a global market leader while providing the opportunity to make a visible impact within a growing Product Security team where security is embedded directly into the development process.

Why You’ll Love This Role

  • Contribute to products that directly impact customers around the world.

  • Focus on Product Security and Application Security rather than traditional SOC operations.

  • Act as a trusted technical security expert within the development lifecycle.

  • Gain exposure to vulnerability research, exploitability analysis, threat modelling, and secure-by-design initiatives.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Assess vulnerabilities and determine real-world exploitability, reachability, and product impact.

  • Act as the first line of defence for Product Security investigations, independently analysing security findings and validating vulnerabilities before engaging development teams.

  • Investigate findings from SAST, DAST, SCA, penetration testing, and vulnerability scanning tools to distinguish genuine security issues from false positives.

Key Requirements

  • 2+ years of experience in Product Security, Application Security, Web Application Security, or a closely related security engineering role.

  • Strong Web Application Security experience is essential, including OWASP Top 10 and secure application design principles.

  • Experience working with SAST, DAST, SCA, vulnerability management platforms, or penetration testing outputs.
