• Act as the technical point of contact for resolving integration errors and optimizing automation scripts.

• Automation Minded: You are proficient in Python and enjoy using it to solve complex security automation challenges.
• Independent Driver: You have a demonstrated ability to manage a customer onboarding from technical kickoff to final handoff without constant senior oversight.
• Strategic Communicator: You can translate deep technical configurations into actionable insights for customer security teams.
