This role owns the design and implementation of automated security scanning, code provenance, and governance processes to ensure AI-generated code meets the highest security and compliance standards. If you're a self-driven engineer who enjoys building security automation from the ground up and weaving security seamlessly into development pipelines, this role is for you. Key Responsibilities Build and integrate security controls into CI/CD pipelines including automated scanning for source code, dependencies, secrets, and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) with enforcement gates on every merge. Design and implement code provenance tracking to capture AI-generated code, the AI models used, and reviewer approvals as part of the development pipeline. Develop structured code review workflows incorporating specifications, scan results, and code provenance. Optimize security scanning tools to reduce false positives and drive developer adoption. Investigate and manage security findings using established remediation and documentation processes. Contribute to AI governance standards, including secure usage of AI tools and governance of AI-generated code. Conduct independent security reviews of internally developed, third-party, and vendor-supplied code to ensure compliance with security standards. Required Skills & Experience Strong hands-on experience in Application Security, with proven expertise securing CI/CD pipelines. Experience implementing automated security scanning and enforcement not just operating existing tools. Strong knowledge of SAST, SCA, secret scanning, DAST, and IaC security scanning. Ability to design, build, and own security automation and governance solutions from the ground up. Strong judgment in balancing security with developer productivity by minimizing unnecessary alerts. Excellent communication skills, with the ability to explain security risks in clear, business-friendly language.

That number is real. WorkMundi's database shows 144,883 open engineer roles across the world. India has the most with 31,687 jobs, followed by the United States with 30,084. If you just finished reading one job ad and felt paralyzed by choice, you're not alone—but this scale is actually an advantage. It means you can afford to be selective.
Start by geography and language. The majority of engineer ads—117,837 of them—have the job posting text written in English. Use that as one filter, but remember: the ad text language tells you nothing about whether the role actually requires you to speak English day-to-day. Read the job description carefully. Then check which countries have the volume you're targeting. Singapore, Poland, and Australia round out the top five after India and the US.
Next, learn who's hiring. Accenture has posted 2,801 engineer roles. andurilindustries, speechify, and jobgether are also actively recruiting. If you're applying to one of these names, research their hiring patterns and interview style before you apply. That homework pays off.
When you interview, expect the question every engineer hears: 'Tell me about a time you had to debug a problem that wasn't in your job description.' Have a specific story ready—not a general one. Name the tools, the deadline pressure, and what you learned. Hiring managers listen for whether you see problem-solving as part of the role itself, not a favour.
