Automox is hiring a Security Engineer

About the Role

You will help shape a proactive security culture by building systems that prevent issues before they arise. Your work will directly reduce the need for reactive fixes, allowing the team to focus on strategic improvements.

What You'll Do

  • Design and deploy automated solutions that detect, respond to, and prevent security incidents across systems and services.
  • Investigate emerging security challenges and share insights through internal documentation and public blog posts.
  • Take part in a rotating on-call schedule to respond to urgent security events when they occur.
  • Apply adversarial thinking to build stronger defenses, simulating real-world attack patterns to test system resilience.

Requirements

  • At least two years of hands-on experience in cybersecurity, preferably within SaaS or cloud-based environments.
  • Proven ability to write scripts or tools in languages such as Python, Go, or Node.js to automate security workflows.
  • Skill in evaluating security risks with attention to both technical reachability and business consequences.
  • Experience contributing to security initiatives in fast-moving organizations where trade-offs are common and ownership is distributed.
  • Curiosity about security philosophy and a willingness to question assumptions to drive better outcomes.
  • Comfort experimenting with new approaches in an environment with minimal red tape.

Benefits

  • Opportunity to grow your expertise and see the tangible impact of your contributions.
  • Work within a unified team culture that values open collaboration and shared responsibility.
  • Operate with autonomy in a low-overhead environment where initiative is encouraged and supported.
