The Application Security team is responsible for securing Clio's applications, developers, and codebase. We work hard to enable our developers to ship secure software at scale while being an empathetic, collaborative team, focused on context and iterating towards secure solutions.

We find and fix code-level vulnerabilities, in addition to building internal security tooling, deploying code scanning tools, threat modeling, and vulnerability remediation. If you're passionate about security and working on innovative solutions with a modern approach, we should definitely chat!
