Role Overview

Step into the critical role of Vulnerability Management Specialist (Web Application) at Arrow Electronics in Bangalore, India, where you'll safeguard the digital backbone of ArrowSphere Cloud. As a pivotal member of our global security team, you'll identify, validate, and remediate vulnerabilities in web applications that power secure digital ecosystems worldwide. With over 8 years of experience required, this position demands a seasoned professional who thrives in fast-paced, international environments. ArrowSphere Cloud, a division of Arrow Electronics, empowers organizations to integrate, unify, manage, and protect modern cloud infrastructures. Your expertise will directly contribute to evolving our vulnerability management practices, collaborating closely with the Cloud Security Architect and development teams across regions.

This full-time role in our Global Engineering Services Center (GESC) in Bangalore offers the chance to work on cutting-edge web security challenges. From scanning modern web apps built with React and Node.js to managing risks in CI/CD pipelines, you'll ensure our platforms remain resilient against evolving threats like those outlined in OWASP Top 10 and MITRE ATT&CK. If you have hands-on experience with tools like Burp Suite, SonarQube, and Snyk, and a passion for DevSecOps, this is your opportunity to make measurable impact in a trusted global platform.

Day in the Life

Imagine starting your day at Arrow Electronics' state-of-the-art GESC facility in Bangalore, Karnataka, India, grabbing a coffee from the on-site cafeteria before diving into the vulnerability dashboard. Your morning kicks off with reviewing overnight DAST scans from production web apps, triaging high-severity issues like SQL injection flaws or XSS vulnerabilities. Using Burp Suite, you validate findings, prioritizing based on business impact and exploitability.

By mid-morning, you're in a sync with the development team via Microsoft Teams, presenting contextual risk assessments that help them understand why a particular npm dependency poses a supply chain risk. Lunchtime might involve a quick walk in the campus green space or joining colleagues for a team meal, fostering the collaborative culture Arrow is known for. Post-lunch, you optimize SAST integrations in the CI/CD pipeline, scripting automations in Python to flag issues early.

Afternoons often include threat modeling workshops for upcoming features, where you apply MITRE ATT&CK tactics to anticipate attacker moves. You track remediation progress in Jira, nudging teams on overdue tickets, and end the day monitoring new CVEs via feeds from NIST and OWASP. Weekly, you contribute to global security reports, ensuring unified resilience across ArrowSphere's international footprint. This dynamic routine blends technical depth with cross-functional influence, all while enjoying Bangalore's vibrant tech ecosystem.
