As a Senior Application Security Engineer, you serve as a specialist in the engineering team that supports the product. You help develop and gain insight in the application architecture. You can distill an abstract architecture into concrete design and influence the implementation. You show expertise in applying the appropriate software engineering patterns to build robust and scalable systems. You are an expert in programming and apply your skills in developing the product. You have the skills to design and implement the architecture on your own but choose to influence your fellow engineers by proposing software designs, providing feedback on software designs and / or implementation. You show good problem-solving skills and can help the team in triaging operational issues. You leverage your expertise in eliminating repeat occurrences.

Use your skills, experience and talents to be a part of groundbreaking thinking and visionary goals. As a Sr. Engineer, you’ll take the lead as you…

• Design, build, and operate security tooling and automation that integrates deeply into development workflows (e.g., CI / CD, linting, auto-fix, click-to-fix flows).
• Create solutions that make the secure path the easiest path — embedding guardrails, reducing manual fixes, and improving the developer experience at scale.
• Augment existing processes with a security lens : dependency scanning, SAST / DAST / SCA, supply chain risk, and automated remediations.
• Collaborate with product engineering teams to enable secure-by-default applications , influencing architecture and design with practical security guidance.
• Build “push-down” solutions such as rules, plugins, and pipeline integrations so that security issues are surfaced and fixed where code is written.
• Evaluate new opportunities to improve security across Target’s environment, targeting solutions that deliver the greatest impact.
• Maintain observability and feedback loops for security signals across production systems.
• Contribute to disaster recovery and incident response planning with a focus on application-layer resilience.
• Share knowledge and mentor teammates in security engineering practices, fostering a culture of curiosity and shared ownership.

This role is part of a team changing how security is done at scale — delivering automation, guardrails, and fixes that directly shape how applications are built securely across Target.

Core responsibilities of this job are described within this job description. Job duties may change at any time due to business needs.
