Purpose of PositionThe Cybersecurity Engineer is a hands-on technical role within the NetJets Cybersecurity Operations team, focused on building, coding, integrating, and operating security solutions. This role requires strong software engineering skills, deep technical expertise, and the ability to work hands-on-keyboard to design, develop, automate, and maintain security capabilities across the enterprise.
This position is intended for engineers and developers, not program or project managers. The successful candidate will write code, develop tools, integrate APIs, automate security workflows, analyze large datasets, and build scalable security solutions.
The Cybersecurity Engineer partners closely with Security Incident Response, Cyber Threat Intelligence, and Cybersecurity Architecture teams to engineer practical, code-driven solutions that measurably improve the company's security posture.
Tasks and Responsibilities- Design, develop, and maintain software-based security solutions, tools, and automation to support vulnerability management, detection, response, and compliance.
- Write and maintain production-quality code (e.g., Python, PowerShell, Java, Go, C#, JavaScript, or similar) to automate security operations, data analysis, integrations, and reporting.
- Perform hands-on development and scripting to integrate security platforms using APIs, webhooks, SDKs, and cloud-native services.
- Build and maintain custom security tooling, dashboards, parsers, and workflows for real-time monitoring and analytics.
- Conduct technical analysis of security telemetry and large datasets, leveraging code and automation rather than manual processes.
- Engineer solutions for endpoint, email, vulnerability, identity, and cloud security, including tuning, automation, and platform integrations.
- Research, prototype, and implement new security technologies with an emphasis on technical feasibility and scalability.
- Perform technical testing, scanning, and validation of controls using custom scripts and engineering-driven approaches
- Provide deep technical incident response support, including forensic analysis, scripting, and tool development during investigations.
- Collaborate with IT and engineering teams to embed secure-by-design principles into
