About The Position

Truist Financial Corporation is seeking an Application Security Sr. Associate Analyst to join its Application Security team and help developers build secure software across the enterprise.

With guidance from senior analysts and stack owners, the analyst will document processes, assist developers, support the team’s workflows and reporting, and help develop training and automation that scale the team’s impact.

The role also helps create developer training and secure-coding guidance, manage workflows and performance or risk indicators, communicate security-tool results, maintain vulnerability and remediation reporting, gather information from multiple sources, and use AI and automation tools to improve triage, reporting, and other repetitive work.
