Job Description

We are seeking a Senior Security Automation Engineer to design, build, and scale enterprise-grade security automation that reduces manual effort, suppresses operational noise, and accelerates cyber defense outcomes.

This role focuses on hands-on automation engineering across identity, endpoint, cloud, network, and data security domains. The successful candidate will build safe, auditable, and production-ready automation workflows that integrate across security platforms and enterprise systems.

Required Qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree in computer science, Cybersecurity, Engineering, or a related technical field
  • 6+ years of experience in security engineering or security automation
  • Strong experience building production-grade automation systems
  • Proficiency in scripting or programming (Python, PowerShell, or similar)
  • Solid understanding of:
  • Security operations workflows
  • Alert enrichment and suppression
  • Containment and response patterns
  • Experience working with APIs, services, and distributed systems
  • Ability to design automation that is safe, explainable, and auditable

Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience integrating automation across IAM, endpoint, cloud, network, and data platforms
  • Familiarity with workflow or orchestration platforms (e.g., ITSM, ticketing, or orchestration engines)
  • Experience designing rollback, TTL, and staged enforcement models
  • Exposure to AI-assisted workflows where automation consumes decision outputs
  • Experience building dashboards or metrics for automation outcomes

What Success Looks Like
  • Delivery of production-ready automation that measurably reduces analyst workload
  • Suppression of alert and ticket noise through effective automation patterns
  • Reusable automation frameworks adopted across multiple security domains
  • Automation actions that are trusted due to strong logging, safety controls, and transparency
  • Recognition as a senior engineer who enables scalable, enterprise-safe automation

Note:
  • 100% remote.
