Elementor's Security Team protects a platform that powers over 14% of the internet - millions of websites, apps, and businesses built by our community of creators. We combine classic security engineering with modern automation and AI-driven tooling to stay ahead of a fast-moving threat landscape, and we work hand-in-hand with R&D to build security into the product from day one.
As an AppSec Engineer, you'll be the security partner for our R&D teams - reviewing code and architecture, closing the loop on vulnerabilities, and helping developers ship secure features faster. You'll also own our external vulnerability disclosure channels end-to-end, including leading our Bug Bounty program. This role is a great fit if you have a development background, enjoy digging into code, and want to use AI tools and agents to scale security impact across a large, fast-growing platform.
עיקרי התפקיד
Application Security & Secure SDLC
Partner with R&D: work directly with developers to identify, triage, and remediate application-level vulnerabilities.
Review code & architecture: assess security weaknesses and provide clear, actionable, developer-friendly remediation guidance both in the code and architectural levels
Own the scanning pipeline: run and tune SAST, DAST, and SCA tools across the codebase and CI/CD.
Shift security left: drive secure coding practices, threat modeling, and security requirements into the development process.
Review new features: support security reviews for new products, integrations, and third-party dependencies.
Vulnerability Disclosure & Bug Bounty
Lead the program: own the Bug Bounty program end-to-end - scoping, triage, severity assessment, payouts, and researcher communication.
Manage vendor integrations: run and integrate vulnerability submission and disclosure platforms including Patchstack, Bugcrowd, Wordfence and Wordpress.
Triage & resolve: validate inbound vulnerability reports from all channels and drive them to resolution with the relevant teams.
Improve the process: continuously raise the bar on intake, triage, and SLA handling for vulnerability reports.
Automation & AI Tooling
Build AI agents: design and build automation workflows and AI agents that cut manual triage work and speed up remediation.
Use AI daily: leverage AI coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor, etc.) to boost your own productivity - “agentic thinking”.
Design AI security Architecture: Build a security apparatus to detect and fix AI produced code and workflows.
Explore automation platforms: evaluate tools like n8n and Zapier for AppSec workflows.
Connect the stack: build scripts and integrations linking scanning tools, ticketing systems, and vendor platforms.
דרישות
2-4 years of experience in Application Security, Security Engineering, or Software Development with a strong security focus.
Development experience is a clear advantage - a hands-on coding background in any modern language or stack.
Solid understanding of common web and application vulnerability classes (e.g., OWASP Top 10).
Experience with Application Security Testing tools (such as burp suite, CI/CD pipeline security rule configuration etc)
Experience with SAST/DAST/SCA tools and integrating security into CI/CD pipelines.
Hands-on, practical familiarity with AI tools and building AI agents for real workflows.
Basic coding and scripting skills (Python, Bash, JavaScript, or similar).
Strong communication skills and the ability to work closely with developers and cross-functional teams.
Skills & Mindset
Ownership mindset - comfortable leading an initiative (like the Bug Bounty program) end-to-end.
Ability to work independently, prioritize, and stay calm under pressure.
Clear communicator who can translate security findings into practical action for developers and stakeholders.
Curiosity for AI tooling and a drive to automate repetitive work.
יתרון
Prior experience running or participating in a Bug Bounty / responsible disclosure program.
Experience with vulnerability disclosure or WAF/plugin security platforms such as Patchstack, Bugcrowd, or Wordfence.
Familiarity with n8n, Zapier, or building custom AI agents for security automation.
Experience with cloud security fundamentals (AWS, Azure, or GCP)
