About this role
DTCC's Information Technology group is seeking a Cyber Security Application Senior Associate to strengthen its application security program across the financial markets infrastructure. In this hybrid role based in Hyderabad, you would execute security testing activities—including SCA, SAST, and DAST—to identify vulnerabilities, assess their risk, and guide engineering teams through remediation. Your work would span the full vulnerability lifecycle: analyzing findings, validating risk, tracking closure, and supporting exception workflows for open-source and other security issues.
The role requires at least six years in application security, secure software development, vulnerability management, or a related cybersecurity field. You should have working knowledge of static and dynamic testing concepts, the ability to communicate technical risk clearly to non-security teams, and hands-on experience with security tools, development pipelines, and ticketing systems. Beyond technical skills, success here depends on accuracy, follow-through, sound judgment, and a collaborative approach to problem-solving with application and engineering partners.
DTCC offers competitive base pay plus annual incentive, comprehensive health and life insurance, pension benefits, and flexible paid time off. The hybrid arrangement requires three days onsite (Tuesdays, Wednesdays, plus one team-specific day) and two days remote, with investment in professional development and a commitment to diversity and inclusion.
