Job Description


We're looking for a hands-on Senior Application Security Engineer to join a high-growth fintech client through Wiset's nearshore network.

What you bring:

  • Proven experience in Application or Product Security
  • Hands-on with SAST, DAST, SCA and secret scanning tools
  • Strong Python skills
  • GCP, Kubernetes/GKE, Docker โ€” you know this stack
  • Familiarity with DefectDojo, Checkov, Terraform
  • Background in fintech or regulated environments (SOC 2, PCI DSS)

  • The engagement: ๐Ÿ“ 100% Remote โ€” LATAM-based ๐Ÿ• Full-time, long-term ๐Ÿ’ผ Placed by Wiset โ€” nearshore engineers for North American tech companies


    Interested or know someone who'd be a great fit? ๐Ÿ“ฉ DM me or send your CV to talent@wiset.io
