Job Level
About the role
- Build security data foundations that support our Web Application protection strategy.
- Act as the platform "detective" to identify when security data is incomplete.
- Write production-grade services to automate complex security workflows.
- Architect the platform logic to prioritize WAF deployments and rule adjustments based on real-time data.
- Work closely with data engineers to improve ingestion pipelines.
- Lead projects from initial data discovery and requirements gathering to ongoing system maintenance.
Requirements
- Proven experience in a software or security engineering role with a heavy focus on data modeling, systems integration, and building scalable internal tools.

- Strong programming skills in Python and/or SQL/PySpark.
- Comfortable joining disparate, "messy" datasets to build a single source of truth.
- Deep experience working with Databricks or similar Delta Lake environments for large-scale data processing and analysis.
- A strong interest in developing the heuristics and logic required to answer complex security questions (e.g., "Which vulnerable apps are missing a WAF?").
- Ability to communicate complex platform architectures and risk-based insights in a clear, non-technical manner.
- Familiarity with the concepts of Agentic AI or RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) is a major plus.
