  • Lead cross-functional collaboration with SOC, Detection Engineering, and Incident Response teams to identify automation opportunities and translate operational needs into technical solutions

  • Deploy cloud-based security infrastructure using infrastructure-as-code practices, managing role-based access controls and supporting disaster recovery initiatives

  • Incorporate cutting-edge AI technologies including Agentic AI and Large Language Models into security workflows to enhance decision-making and contextual understanding

  • Produce executive-level reporting on automation performance metrics and ROI, presenting program effectiveness to leadership while supporting strategic security initiatives

  • 5+ years of proven experience designing and implementing security automation solutions in enterprise environments with hands-on SOAR platform expertise and demonstrated leadership in automation initiatives.

  • Strong hands-on incident response experience with demonstrated ability to translate response procedures into scalable automated workflows.

  • Strong proficiency in Python programming and experience with detection technologies such as YARA, along with REST API development and third-party service integrations

  • Deep technical expertise across security platforms including SIEM technologies (such as Splunk, Elastic, or Sentinel), SOAR platforms (such as Phantom, XSOAR, or Swimlane), and EDR solutions (such as CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, or Microsoft Defender)

  • Hands-on experience with cloud infrastructure deployment particularly in AWS environments, using infrastructure-as-code tools (such as Terraform, CloudFormation, or Pulumi)

  • Experience with data manipulation and analysis tools (such as Pandas or SQL) for processing high-volume security telemetry and creating sophisticated automation triggers

Additional Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience with Google SecOps platform and familiarity with integrating Agentic AI and Large Language Models into security workflows for enhanced automation and decision-making

  • Advanced knowledge of identity and access management platforms such as Okta, Microsoft Entra ID, or SailPoint, along with email security solutions like Proofpoint or Mimecast

  • Proven experience in development lifecycle best practices including version control systems (such as Git, GitLab, or Bitbucket), containerization technologies (such as Podman, or containerd), and CI/CD platforms (such as Jenkins, GitLab CI, or Azure DevOps)

  • Experience with threat intelligence platforms (such as ThreatConnect, Anomali, or MISP) and integrating threat feeds into automated response workflows

  • Strong presentation and communication skills with demonstrated ability to present metrics, operational insights, and program outcomes to executive leadership and cross-functional stakeholders
