Job description
- Identify the highest-impact opportunities to automate security operations, then independently design, build, and ship the solution end to end
- Architect and deliver enterprise-scale platforms and services (detection and response pipelines, asset and software inventory, risk and exception workflows) that are adopted well beyond InfoSec
- Build and harden Al-agent workflows that take on recurring security work, with the validation, auditability, and guardrails needed to trust them in production
- Integrate security tooling, cloud platforms, and internal data sources into cohesive systems with clean APIs and clear ownership
- Challenge established ways of working, prototype quickly with emerging technologies, and turn successful experiments into durable, maintainable products
- Partner with security, platform, and engineering teams to drive adoption and raise the engineering bar through code review, mentorship, and shared standards
- Own the reliability of what you build, including observability, documentation, and a clear path for long-term support
Requirements
- 8+ years of professional software engineering experience, including building and operating distributed systems or platforms at enterprise scale
- Strong proficiency in one or more modern languages such as Python, Go, TypeScript, or C#, with a track record of shipping production-quality code preferred
- Hands-on experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS and/or GCP), containers and Kubernetes, infrastructure-as-code, and CI/CD
- Experience building automation, internal tools, or data pipelines that measurably reduced manual effort or improved operational outcomes
- Working knowledge of security fundamentals and operations (identity, vulnerability management, logging and detection, incident response); security automation or SOAR experience is a plus
- Practical experience building with LLMs and Al agents, or a demonstrated drive to learn quickly and apply them responsibly
- A self-directed, ownership-driven approach: you find the problem, define the solution, and see it through to delivery with minimal oversight
- Genuine curiosity and enthusiasm for emerging technology, balanced with sound engineering judgment about what is ready for production
- Excellent communication skills and the ability to build consensus and drive adoption across technical and non-technical stakeholders
- A bias for action and a history of improving how teams work, not just what they ship
