About the role

Responsibilities:

  • Design, develop, test, and deploy backend automation systems that enhance Security Operations Center workflows through cloud-native, data-intensive, and artificial intelligence-driven architectures.
  • Develop scalable backend services and microservices using Python, Go, and modern cloud-native design patterns.
  • Build secure, highly available systems leveraging Amazon Web Services technologies, including Relational Database Service, DynamoDB, Lambda, Elastic Kubernetes Service, and other cloud-native services.
  • Design and maintain detection pipelines, incident response playbooks, enrichment services, and intelligent automation frameworks.
  • Integrate software components into production-ready systems with strong observability, reliability, documentation, and maintainability.
  • Collaborate with threat detection, incident response, data science, and platform engineering teams to deliver secure and context-aware automation solutions.
  • Apply test-driven development methodologies and continuous integration and continuous delivery practices using Git, Jenkins, Terraform, Docker, and infrastructure-as-code workflows.
  • Contribute to architectural decisions involving large language models, reasoning agents, and autonomous task execution frameworks within security operations tooling.
  • Solve complex technical challenges across distributed systems using advanced debugging, troubleshooting, and analytical techniques.
  • Research, prototype, and operationalize innovative artificial intelligence capabilities for detection, triage, automation, and response workflows.
  • Drive engineering excellence through code reviews, architectural guidance, and technical leadership.
  • Mentor and develop engineers while contributing to the growth and maturity of the engineering organization.


Requirements:

  • You have 9 or more years of experience in backend software development, infrastructure engineering, or security-focused systems development.
  • You possess deep expertise in automation design patterns, distributed systems, and cloud-native application architectures.

  • You have strong experience with cloud platforms such as Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud Platform, or Microsoft Azure.
  • You have hands-on experience with Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform, and microservices-based architectures.
  • You have experience integrating artificial intelligence or machine learning capabilities into production systems.
  • You have strong knowledge of data pipelines, streaming architectures, and security detection workflows.
  • You have demonstrated success leading complex technical initiatives and influencing architectural decisions.
  • You can independently drive large-scale engineering efforts from design through production deployment.
  • You have strong communication, collaboration, and problem-solving skills.
  • You are passionate about cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, automation, and engineering excellence.


Nice to have:

  • Experience building security operations automation platforms.
  • Experience working directly with Security Operations Center, threat detection, or incident response teams.
  • Experience integrating large language models and agentic frameworks into production environments.
  • Familiarity with detection engineering, threat intelligence, or security analytics platforms.
  • Experience contributing to technical strategy, architecture reviews, or engineering leadership initiatives.
