Job Description

Automation Engineer developing API-driven integrations and reliable automation for Sentinel Blue's platforms. Supporting internal teams and clients while maintaining efficient and scalable platforms.

Responsibilities:

Design, build, and maintain automation that integrates SaaS platforms, internal tools, and cloud services across client and internal environments.
Develop and consume REST APIs, including OAuth2 authentication flows, token lifecycle management, and error handling for production-grade integrations.
Write scripts and tooling in PowerShell, Python, and other appropriate languages to automate provisioning, configuration, reporting, and lifecycle tasks.
Build infrastructure-as-code using Terraform or similar frameworks to support repeatable, version-controlled deployments.
Partner with internal teams to identify manual workflows, scope automation opportunities, and deliver solutions that fit how those teams actually work.
Implement automation with appropriate guardrails, including secrets management, least-privilege access, logging, and observability.
Maintain and improve existing automations, including refactoring, documentation, and migration of brittle workflows to more reliable patterns.
Communicate automation designs, integration patterns, and operational guidance clearly to internal teams and stakeholders.
Contribute to platform documentation, standards, runbooks, and architectural diagrams.
Identify opportunities to reduce manual effort, improve consistency, and enhance the operator and engineer experience through automation.

Requirements:

U.S. citizenship - by nature of our work with the defense industry, all employees must be eligible for a Secret clearance.
2+ years of experience in automation engineering, platform engineering, DevOps, software engineering, or related technical roles.
Hands-on experience designing and consuming REST APIs in production, including pagination, rate limiting, retries, and error handling.
Practical understanding of OAuth2 flows (authorization code, client credentials, PKCE) and modern authentication patterns including token lifecycle and refresh handling.
Proficiency scripting in PowerShell, Python, or comparable languages, with the judgment to choose the right tool for the job.
Practical experience with infrastructure-as-code using Terraform or equivalent frameworks.
Strong understanding of how automation interacts with identity, secrets, and access control, and how to build automation that doesn't introduce security risk.
Demonstrated ability to collaborate across teams, translate operational pain points into automation requirements, and deliver solutions that get adopted.
Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to explain integration designs and trade-offs to non-engineering stakeholders.
CompTIA Security+ certification is required in the first 6 months of hire.

Benefits:

Fully paid individual healthcare, vision and dental insurance for the employee.
Paid certification and training opportunities.
Three weeks of paid vacation + 10 paid holidays.
A supportive environment with a focus on keeping healthy work-life balance.
Retirement benefit (401k) with company match.
