Are there any possibilities for you to first work at a company doing full stack dev in a way that allows you to interact with security teams? Stuff like implementing the OWASP top ten? That was how I built up a skill set and knowledge base in security.

As with any lateral change you should consider if you'd really enjoy the change. Security is a very interesting landscape but it turned out I really enjoy having a more direct impact on product development so I haven't totally made the switch. But security experience has definitely made job searches easier, recruiters specifically target folks with product/security experience and there a lot of opportunities in the space.
