  • Lead the evaluation and deployment of hyper-automation strategy, prioritizing areas with high operational impact.
  • Develop, maintain, and optimize automation scripts using Python, PowerShell, Ansible, and other relevant languages, ensuring appropriate security, integrity of scripts, secrets/keys and permissions. 
  • Provide expert-level troubleshooting and problem resolution for security automation implementations, efficacy, optimization. Train and educate other junior team members to provide “bench depth” for automation support, problem & issues resolution. 
  • Continuously monitor, assess, and improve automation workflows to adapt to evolving threats and operational requirements.
