Tasks and Responsibilities
- Design, develop, and maintain software-based security solutions, tools, and automation to support vulnerability management, detection, response, and compliance.
- Write and maintain production-quality code (e.g., Python, PowerShell, Java, Go, C#, JavaScript, or similar) to automate security operations, data analysis, integrations, and reporting.
- Perform hands-on development and scripting to integrate security platforms using APIs, webhooks, SDKs, and cloud-native services.
- Build and maintain custom security tooling, dashboards, parsers, and workflows for real-time monitoring and analytics.
- Conduct technical analysis of security telemetry and large datasets, leveraging code and automation rather than manual processes.
- Engineer solutions for endpoint, email, vulnerability, identity, and cloud security, including tuning, automation, and platform integrations.
- Research, prototype, and implement new security technologies with an emphasis on technical feasibility and scalability.
- Perform technical testing, scanning, and validation of controls using custom scripts and engineering-driven approaches.
- Provide deep technical incident response support, including forensic analysis, scripting, and tool development during investigations.
- Collaborate with IT and engineering teams to embed secure-by-design principles into systems.
