• Conduct regular audits and refinements to security operations, ensuring alignment with evolving cybersecurity standards, company strategy, and development best practices.

Qualifications

• Strong programming background in object-oriented languages (Python, Go, Java, etc.) and SQL, with experience building maintainable, scalable solutions.
• Proven experience with security tool development and integration (e.g., endpoint protection, email security, datalake, SOAR) including API utilization, custom scripting, and tool configuration to automate security processes.
• Background in automation and orchestration frameworks, with the ability to build reusable, code-based security solutions that minimize manual tasks and are scalable across environments.
• Experience with security data engineering or working in a DevSecOps environment, emphasizing automation, security telemetry, and scalable security infrastructure.
• Experience with modern cybersecurity technologies and platforms, including but not limited to endpoint security, email security platforms, EDR, SOAR, and datalake tools.
• Solid knowledge of endpoint and email security principles and a record of implementing and maintaining security controls in corporate environments.
• Comprehensive knowledge of RESTful APIs and data integration techniques to enable efficient, secure, and scalable data flow and communication between security systems and user-facing platforms.
• Strong familiarity with infrastructure-as-code tools such as Terraform or Ansible to automate and standardize security configurations across diverse environments.
• Hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines, version control systems (e.g., Git), and modern software development practices to ensure high standards of consistency, quality, and automation in deploying and updating security tools.
