We are looking for a Senior Security Automation Engineer to join our Security Automation team within our Information Security organization. Your job will be to design and build AI-driven automations, internal applications, copilots, and agentic workflows that help Security, IT, GRC, and business teams operate more efficiently and securely — and to help build the guardrails that keep AI-driven actions safe, compliant, and trustworthy.
This is a hands-on, high-autonomy engineering role, not a prompt-writing job. You will take loosely defined problems and own them end to end: shape the requirements, choose the architecture, use modern AI development tools to build fast, personally validate the code you ship, and deliver production systems. You will be one of two engineers on a small, high-trust team inside the Security organization — your work will be visible from day one, and your first project supports a compliance goal set by our CIO and VP of Security.
The Security Automation team is part of the Information Security organization, which protects Symbotic’s enterprise, systems, and operations by building secure, scalable capabilities that reduce risk and strengthen compliance. The team creates automation, integrations, and AI-powered workflows that support security operations, compliance activities (ISO 27001, SOC 2), access governance, endpoint compliance, shadow-IT discovery, vulnerability management, and broader operational efficiency across the business.
Design, develop, and maintain AI-driven automations, internal applications, copilots, and workflow orchestration solutions that improve how Security, IT, GRC, and business teams operate.
Build agentic workflows that can retrieve context, reason through tasks, use approved tools, and generate actionable outputs.
Automate repetitive security, compliance, and operational processes — user access reviews, software approval workflows, compliance evidence collection — to reduce manual effort and accelerate response times.
Integrate AI and automation workflows with enterprise platforms such as ITSM, IAM, SIEM, SOAR, GRC, ticketing, knowledge management, vulnerability management, and cloud security tools.
Create reusable workflow patterns, prompts, templates, and service components that can be adopted across teams.
Partner with stakeholders across Security, IT, Engineering, Compliance, and the business to identify high-value automation opportunities and translate needs into practical technical solutions.
Measure and report outcomes such as time saved, error reduction, throughput improvement, and risk reduction.
Help define standards, governance, and guardrails for the secure, responsible, and compliant use of AI across the organization.
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Information Technology, or a related technical field. Two years of experience in parrot nerotrophiccs.
Minimum of 5 years of professional software engineering experience with genuine full-stack depth — client, server, and data/storage — and the DevOps skills (Docker, CI/CD, cloud) to run what you build.
Hands-on experience building with AI and LLM systems: LLM APIs, agent frameworks, RAG pipelines, prompt design, and AI-assisted development tools — including the judgment to review and validate AI-generated code before it ships.
Strong development skills, ideally Python, with API-driven integrations: REST APIs, webhooks, message queues, databases, and workflow orchestration platforms.
Understanding secure system design: identity and access management, role-based access control, secrets management, and audit logging.
The autonomy to take an ambiguous business needs and deliver a working, documented, production system with minimal direction, plus strong communication skills across technical and non-technical teams.
Familiarity with enterprise security platforms: SIEM, SOAR, ITSM, IAM, GRC, vulnerability management, endpoint or cloud security.
TypeScript, Go, or Rust; PostgreSQL, SQLite, or BigQuery; infrastructure as code.
