About Us
Tokio Marine HCC is a leading specialty insurance group with offices in the United States, the United Kingdom, Europe, Ireland, and other exciting locations. With the strength and stability that comes from being a member of the Tokio Marine Group, and more than forty years of growth, profitability, and stability, we offer important insurance products that most people don't even know exist. Every policy we write is special, enabling our clients to do amazing things. From insuring the crops that feed us to the rock concerts that entertain us, to rescuing international travelers in trouble, we offer more than 100 classes of specialty insurance.
Applying our Mind Over Risk philosophy to writing insurance allows our customers to take on opportunity with confidence. That philosophy defines our way of thinking, unites us as a team, and differentiates us from our competitors. We are much more than just an insurance company; we are a good company.

Partner with DevOps, Infrastructure, and Cloud teams to embed security into development workflows and platform engineering practices.
Collaborate with developers, architects, and business unit leaders to promote secure development and consistent security standards.
Support incident response, risk, and compliance teams with application-related assessments and investigations.
Research emerging threats and technologies to continuously enhance TMHCC's application security maturity.

Relevant certifications such as CISSP, CSSLP, or GIAC preferred.
