Summary
Position: Senior Automation Engineer
Location: NYC, NY (3 days onsite is must - In-person interview required )
Duration: 12 Months
Role: Automation Engineer — AI-Driven Code Security & Remediation Framework
Role Summary
Builds and operates a system that scans GitHub/Artifactory repos for vulnerabilities and EOL libraries, then uses AI-driven automation to remediate findings — cutting manual triage and patch time firm-wide.
Core Technical Skills
· Programming: Strong Python (scanners, orchestration, API integration); basic Bash for CI/CD glue
· Source & Artifact Systems: GitHub (Actions, Advanced Security, PR workflows) and JFrog Artifactory/Xray; ability to scale across multi-repo, multi-language codebases
· Scanning Tools: Hands-on with Snyk, Xray, CodeQL / Dependabot, Trivy, or Semgrep; understanding of CVE/CVSS scoring and EOL-detection sources (e.g., endoflife.date)
· AI-Driven Remediation: Building agentic workflows (LLM-based) that interpret findings, generate patch PRs, run tests, and summarize fixes; prompt engineering for code-editing agents
· CI/CD & Orchestration: Integrating scan-and-fix pipelines into GitHub Actions/Jenkins; Docker for isolated fix-testing; scheduling via Airflow/cron
· Reporting: Structuring findings (JSON/SQL) into dashboards for tracking coverage and trends
Supporting Skills
· Security fundamentals (injection, auth flaws, supply-chain/SBOM risk)
· Risk-based prioritization beyond raw CVSS scores
· Semantic versioning awareness for safe auto-upgrades
· Testing discipline — regression validation before auto-merge
Communication Skills
· Translating vulnerability data into concise, risk-framed leadership updates (exposure counts, MTTR, fix-rate trends)
· Writing clear status emails on scan coverage and outstanding critical items
· Building the business case (time saved, risk reduced) for non-technical stakeholders
Continuous Learning
· Tracking emerging agentic/AI remediation tools and evaluating fit before firm-wide adoption
Skill Levels
· Expert Level resource: 12+ total years of experience, with at least three years in relevant AI driven automation for code scanning and remediation matching the above skills
· Advanced level: Total 10+ years of total experience, of which at least three years must be in the relevant AI driven automation for code scanning and remediation matching the above skills
