Read our Culture Manual and learn more about how we work . About the Role Most vulnerability management programs are still built around people manually triaging tickets and chasing down owners. We're taking a different approach: a platform that uses AI-assisted tooling to do a lot of that work for us, and this role is where that gets built. We want you to design the automations, integrations, and workflows that take those fundamentals further: less manual ticket routing, more systems that carry a finding through triage, ownership, and remediation on their own. The skill set we're after, automation-first thinking, developer-level reasoning, and the ability to build integrations across systems, is what turns a program from manual and reactive into something that runs on its own. That's the job: build the automation and integrations that let our VM tooling handle the load without a person in the loop at every step. We're also building deeper integration with our CRS (Cyber Reasoning System) harness, so a finding can move from triage through automated sandbox validation to a generated fix with less manual handling at each stage. We use AI-assisted development tools heavily and expect you to use them too. In this role, you will have the opportunity to: Own and evolve our custom VM platform, working on deployment, integrations, data model, and automation workflows. This is a greenfield opportunity to shape how the platform grows. Build automation across the full VM lifecycle: triage, ticket routing, SLA tracking, ownership resolution, and follow-up. We use Claude Code and Tracecat, and you'll be expected to use and extend both meaningfully. Take a platform built around one team's workflow to one that fits how the rest of engineering actually works. Get it in front of people, bake it into their existing processes, and make it something teams reach for. Integrate scanner data into our VM pipeline and maintain the enrichment workflows that turn raw findings into actionable tickets. Build the queries, dashboards, and automated reports that give the team and leadership clear visibility into vulnerability posture. Stay current on the threat landscape, especially the growing role of AI in vulnerability research and exploitation, and factor that into how we build and prioritize. Help build toward a future where a validated finding gets tested and patched by CRS in a sandbox, and comes back out as a PR, closing the loop with minimal manual work. We are looking for someone who: Is familiar with the software development lifecycle end to end, well enough to recognize where a vulnerability was actually introduced in the process and to tell when an AI tool is hallucinating a finding instead of catching a real one. Has 4+ years of hands-on vulnerability management and/or security engineering experience, including scanner integration, triage workflows, and remediation tracking. If vulnerability management isn't explicitly on your resume, you should be able to explain clearly why you understand it anyway. Has production AWS experience. Has a strong automation-first mindset. You've built things that replace manual processes. Has deep familiarity with VM tooling (Tenable, Semgrep, Rapid7, or comparable scanners) and knows how to build integrations on top of them via API. Understands the difference between package and library vulnerabilities
