Job Description:

Senior Software Engineer Emerging Technology & Labs

About the Role

We are seeking a Software Engineer to join the Emerging Technology & Labs team within Cyber Security Engineering. This role is designed for a senior hands-on individual contributor who enjoys working across a wide range of technologies- designing building securing and operating lab environments used to evaluate and derisk emerging cyber technologies before enterprise adoption.

You will operate at the intersection of software engineering security engineering and experimentation contributing to proofofconcepts (PoCs) pilots technical evaluations and secure lab operations. This role balances deep engineering work with lab security and operational ownership.

This is not a run-the-business or product support role- it is a forward-looking engineering role focused on building learning and shaping what comes next.

Key Responsibilities

Software Engineering & Automation

• Design build and maintain software prototypes automation and PoCs to evaluate emerging cyber and platform technologies.

• Develop custom integrations scripts APIs and tooling that connect new technologies with existing enterprise platforms (e.g. identity cloud logging CI/CD).

• Write secure high-quality maintainable code using modern engineering practices (testing CI/CD code reviews).

• Create reusable tools and automation to accelerate experimentation and reduce friction in lab environments.

Secure Labs Engineering & Operations

• Design operate and continuously improve secure lab environments that replicate real-world enterprise conditions.

• Own lab security hygiene including:

  • OS and platform patching

  • Vulnerability remediation and configuration hardening

  • Dependency updates and technical debt reduction

• Monitor lab health performance and security posture ensuring environments remain reliable and safe for experimentation.

• Troubleshoot complex issues across application infrastructure security and network layers.

Emerging Technology Evaluation

• Evaluate and validate new and emerging cyber technologies through hands-on testing and experimentation.

• Translate business and security use cases into technical evaluation criteria and success metrics.

• Develop technical findings implementation notes and practical guidance to inform go / nogo and scale decisions.

• Partner with vendors and internal teams during PoCs and pilots to test real-world feasibility.

Architecture & Collaboration

• Develop reference designs and architecture concepts in collaboration with Architecture and Platform teams ensuring alignment with enterprise standards.

• Work closely with security engineering architecture risk and platform teams to ensure lab learnings are transferable to production environments.

• Clearly communicate technical designs findings risks and trade-offs to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

• Mentor junior engineers and help elevate engineering discipline across the labs team.

Required Qualifications

• 810 years of hands-on software engineering experience in enterprise or complex technical environments.

• Strong proficiency in one or more modern programming languages (e.g. Python Go Java TypeScript).

• Broad hands-on experience across multiple cyber security technology domains which may include:

  • Identity & access management

  • Cloud and infrastructure security

  • Detection & response

  • Application security

  • Platform or DevSecOps tooling

• Demonstrated ability to learn new technologies quickly and apply them through hands-on experimentation.

• Experience building APIs integrations automation pipelines and engineering tooling.

• Solid understanding of cloud platforms (AWS Azure or GCP) and cloud-native services.

• Experience with CI/CD pipelines infrastructure-as-code and automated testing.

• Comfortable owning both engineering delivery and operational responsibilities (e.g. patching upgrades environment stability).

Preferred / Nice-to-Have Experience

• Prior experience supporting lab environments test platforms or innovation teams.

• Exposure to vendor evaluations PoCs or earlystage technology pilots.

• Familiarity with containerization Kubernetes and modern platform ecosystems.

• Experience working within security engineering or cyber defense organizations.

What Success Looks Like

• Independently delivers complex engineering outcomes with minimal oversight.

• Owns PoCs or lab workstreams end-to-end including security and operational readiness.

• Produces reusable outputs (code tooling patterns) that influence broader teams.

• Acts as a trusted senior engineer and technical advisor within the Emerging Tech & Labs team.

• Continuously expands technical breadth while maintaining strong engineering fundamentals.
