About the role
- GoDaddy's Network Security Engineering and Operations team is looking for a Network Security Automation Engineer to build and run the software that manages network security at scale.
- In this role you'll own the internal APIs and risk engine behind our network policy management, automate our operational workflows, and find the problems nobody has filed a ticket for!
Responsibilities
- Own and extend the internal APIs and services that drive network security policy management, including our risk calculation engine
- Automate operational workflows from request intake and validation through change execution, evidence capture and reporting
- Write, test and maintain production code, partnering with our SRE team on deployment, monitoring and release
- Integrate with firewalls, segmentation platforms, asset sources, ticketing and network detection tooling through their APIs
- Help stand up network detection and response capability and automate detection validation across NDR, IDS and IPS
Requirements
- 3+ years in network security, network engineering, infrastructure automation or a platform/tooling role, with tools and services you've built and shipped
- Strong Python proficiency, with tested, maintainable production code
- Demonstrated network security depth: firewall policy, segmentation, ACLs and routing across devices, hosts and cloud
- Experience with Git and CI/CD, and enough understanding of containerized deployment to work effectively with SRE teams
- Fluency with REST APIs, TLS and certificates, and secure coding practices
- Ability to take a loosely defined problem, propose an approach and deliver it independently
- Experience using AI tools to solve real engineering problems, with the judgment to know when the output is wrong
Preferred qualifications
- Experience with Juniper SRX, Palo Alto Networks, Tufin or Illumio
- Infrastructure-as-code experience with Terraform, CloudFormation or Kubernetes
- AWS networking, IAM and serverless automation experience
- Experience automating detections on NDR, IDS or IPS platforms
