At GoDaddy the future of work looks different for each team. Some teams work in the office full-time; others have a hybrid arrangement (they work remotely some days and in the office some days) and some work entirely remotely.
This is a remote position, so you’ll be working remotely from your home. You may occasionally visit a GoDaddy office to meet with your team for events or meetings.
**Join Our Team...
GoDaddy's Network Security Engineering and Operations team is looking for a Network Security Automation Engineer to build and run the software that manages network security at scale. Are you equally comfortable reading a firewall rule base and a CI pipeline?
In this role you'll own the internal APIs and risk engine behind our network policy management, automate our operational workflows, and find the problems nobody has filed a ticket for! Because this tooling holds privileged access to the network, the role requires real security judgment, not just software skills.
What you'll get to do...
**
- Own and extend the internal APIs and services that drive network security policy management, including our risk calculation engine
- Automate operational workflows from request intake and validation through change execution, evidence capture and reporting
- Write, test and maintain production code, partnering with our SRE team on deployment, monitoring and release
- Integrate with firewalls, segmentation platforms, asset sources, ticketing and network detection tooling through their APIs
- Help stand up network detection and response capability and automate detection validation across NDR, IDS and IPS
Your experience should include...
- 3+ years in network security, network engineering, infrastructure automation or a platform/tooling role, with tools and services you've built and shipped
- Strong Python proficiency, with tested, maintainable production code. Demonstrated network security depth: firewall policy, segmentation, ACLs and routing across devices, hosts and cloud
- Experience with Git and CI/CD, and enough understanding of containerized deployment to work effectively with SRE teams
- Fluency with REST APIs, TLS and certificates, and secure coding practices. Ability to take a loosely defined problem, propose an approach and deliver it independently
- Experience using AI tools to solve real engineering problems, with the judgment to know when the output is wrong
