Description:
Business Initiative/Purpose: (Goal, Business Impact, Accomplishments from the work)
- Cybersecurity Automation Engineer to design, build, and maintain integrations and automated workflows within our SOAR platform (Cortex XSOAR). This role will focus on ingesting and correlating data from third-party risk and security tools (e.g., Archer, SecurityScorecard, Splunk), enabling alerting for vendor-related threats, and executing automated response playbooks to reduce risk and response time.
Bachelor Degree: (Required, Preferred or Not Required)
Role Responsibilities: (what they will be doing)
SOAR Engineering & Integrations
- - Design, build, and maintain integrations between XSOAR and platforms such as Archer (or other GRC tools), SecurityScorecard (or similar vendor risk tools), and SIEM solutions such as Splunk.
- - Develop custom connectors and API-based integrations where native connectors do not exist.
- - Normalize, enrich, and correlate data from third-party and external risk sources for operational use.
Third-Party Risk Alerting
- - Build alerting logic for vendor-related threats including vendor breaches, risk score degradation, SaaS abuse, and exposure of vendor-managed assets.
- - Correlate vendor risk signals with internal telemetry to determine potential business impact.
- - Enable SOC workflows for third-party-related detections.
Automation & Playbooks
- - Design and implement SOAR playbooks to triage, enrich, and respond to vendor-related alerts.
- - Automate response actions such as token revocation, access suspension, ticket creation, and stakeholder notification.
- - Maintain and optimize playbooks to reduce manual effort and mean time to respond (MTTR).
- - Partner with SOC, Vendor Risk, Threat Modeling, and Detection Engineering teams to translate risk scenarios into automation logic.
- - Document integrations, workflows, and playbooks.
- - Monitor performance and reliability of SOAR automations. .
Must Have Skills/Prior Experiences: (Vendor should not submit any candidate that does not have these skills/prior experience.)
- 3+ years of experience in security engineering, SOAR engineering, or security automation.
- Hands-on experience with Cortex XSOAR (or similar SOAR platform).
- Experience integrating SIEM platforms such as Splunk.
- Strong API integration and scripting skills (Python, REST, JSON, webhooks).
- Solid understanding of incident response workflows, SaaS security, IAM, and third-party risk.
- Docker, Kubernetes, containerization pipeline, and deployment experience.
- Other security certifications (e.g. CCNA Security, GSEC, GCED, GPPA, etc.).
- Other technical Certifications (e.g. CCNA, RHCE, MCSE, etc.).
- Demonstrated knowledge of Large Language Models (LLMs) and Generative AI, with a focus on Azure AI offerings
PlNice to Have Skills/Prior Experiences: (Hiring Manager DOES NOT require these skills/ prior experience. However candidates with any of these will be looked at first.)
- Experience integrating Archer, ServiceNow GRC, SecurityScorecard, BitSight, or RiskRecon.
- Knowledge of MITRE ATTACK and detection engineering concepts.
- Experience automating SaaS security actions (token revocation, session termination).
Familiarity with External Attack Surface Management (EASM) tools.
