Our diverse portfolio consists of vaccines, specialty medicines, and general medicines. Through continuous innovation and a dedicated focus on scientific and technical excellence, we strive to develop and launch new, groundbreaking treatments that address critical health challenges. Domain focus: Design Assurance for Application Security, Data Security and Cloud Security. Job Purpose: Domain analyst covering Application Security, Data Security and Cloud Security, plus ownership of the Design Assurance register. You perform pre-production and BAU reviews for tooling in these domains and maintain the register that assurance coverage is reported from. About the team. Design Assurance and Product Management makes sure security is designed in before anything is built, and that GSK's security capabilities are run as products rather than projects. Design Assurance independently verifies that solutions meet the architecture standards set elsewhere in Cyber Architecture and Solutions; it writes none of those standards, and that separation is what makes the review worth anything. Product Management owns the security portfolio, vendor governance and investment analytics, and is how GSK manages its managed service vendor as a whole. Platform support engineering moves into this function, with a small internal team retaining oversight while the vendor operates more than 30 platforms and the data fabric under an OTO model. Seventeen roles. What makes this role different. Three domains plus register ownership, so the role combines review work with a practice-wide responsibility. The register is what assurance coverage and audit evidence are reported from, which means accuracy is not negotiable. You verify against standards the architecture domains set; you do not write them. Appetite to build breadth across AppSec, data and cloud matters more than deep expertise in one. Key responsibilities: This role will provide you the opportunity to lead key activities to progress your career. These responsibilities include some of the following: Perform pre-production reviews for application security tooling including SAST, DAST and SCA, validating against AppSec architecture standards, SDLC integration patterns and API security controls. Review data security tooling including DLP and data classification against data security architecture standards.
