As a Senior Hyperautomation Engineer, you will be tasked with designing, building, and operating the automation layer that powers Wayfinder MDR. You will work closely with Threat Service Engineers (TSEs), SOC analysts, Threat Hunters, and R&D teams to transform manual SOC processes into scalable, reliable, and efficient automation workflows.
This role focuses on engineering and automation, not alert triage. You will help shape how MDR operates at scale by reducing manual workload, improving signal-to-noise ratio, and enabling faster and more consistent threat detection and response.
What Will You Do?
Primary responsibilities include:
- Design, develop, and maintain hyperautomation workflows that support alert triage, enrichment, investigation, and response.
- Convert SOC playbooks, investigation logic, and threat-hunting processes into automated, production-grade workflows.
- Proactively identify repetitive or high-volume SOC tasks and implement automation to improve efficiency and consistency.
- Build and maintain integrations with internal platforms and third-party security tools using APIs, webhooks, and event-driven mechanisms.
- Collaborate closely with Threat Service Engineers (TSEs) and SOC teams to fine-tune existing detections and automation logic.
- Improve and optimize MDR operational processes to ensure fast response times and effective threat mitigation.
- Own automation workflows end-to-end, including design, deployment, monitoring, troubleshooting, and continuous improvement.
- Create and maintain automation playbooks, templates, and best practices to support incident response at scale.
- Work closely with R&D and product teams to provide operational feedback and help shape future detection and response capabilities.
What Skills & Knowledge Will You Bring?
Ideal candidates will have:
- 5+ years of experience in Security Engineering, Automation Engineering, SOC Tooling, Backend Engineering, or similar technical roles.
- Strong experience with Python (required); experience with SQL is highly preferred.
- Experience building and operating automation workflows or backend services in production environments.
- Solid understanding of SOC operations, incident response workflows, and security alert lifecycles.
- Experience working with APIs, integrations, and distributed systems.
- Strong problem-solving skills with the ability to translate operational challenges into scalable engineering solutions.
- Professional and articulate, with strong written and verbal communication skills.
- Ability to manage multiple workstreams and prioritize effectively in a fast-paced environment.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Green Card Sponsorship as a Senior Security Operations Engineer
Align your credentials with PERM requirements
PERM requires your degree and experience to match the job description exactly. Audit your resume against the SOC 11-9199 or 15-1299 classification before applying. Gaps between your actual background and the posted requirements can trigger DOL audit requests.
Target employers with established PERM programs
Defense contractors, financial institutions, and healthcare networks regularly sponsor Senior Security Operations Engineers because they maintain internal PERM infrastructure. Search OFLC public disclosure data to verify which employers have filed PERM applications for security operations roles in the past two years.
Use Migrate Mate to filter sponsorship-ready employers
Not every job posting that mentions sponsorship reflects active PERM experience. Use Migrate Mate to identify employers with verified green card filing history for security engineering roles, so you spend your applications on companies that can actually complete the process.
Document specialized skills for EB-2 eligibility
If you hold a master's degree or have a bachelor's plus five years of progressive security operations experience, you may qualify for EB-2. Compile performance reviews, incident response records, and certifications like CISSP or GIAC to support an advanced-degree or EB-2-eligible candidate argument during filing.
Clarify prevailing wage requirements early in negotiations
DOL requires your offered salary to meet the prevailing wage for your geographic area and experience level before certifying PERM. Cross-check your offer against the OFLC Wage Search to confirm the employer is filing at the correct wage level and won't need to refile later.
Negotiate I-140 and priority date filing into your offer
PERM certification alone doesn't lock in your green card timeline. Ask employers to file the I-140 petition with USCIS promptly after PERM approval and, if budget allows, with premium processing. Your priority date is set at I-140 filing, which determines your place in the EB-2 or EB-3 queue.
Green Card Senior Security Operations Engineer: Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Senior Security Operations Engineer role qualify for both EB-2 and EB-3?
Yes. EB-3 covers skilled workers and professionals with a bachelor's degree, which most security operations roles require. EB-2 applies if the position requires an advanced degree or if you have a bachelor's plus five years of progressive, specialized experience. The employer's job description must match the category they file under, so the requirements posted in the PERM application matter significantly.
How does PERM green card sponsorship differ from H-1B for this role?
H-1B visa is a temporary nonimmigrant visa with a three-year initial period and an annual cap subject to lottery selection. PERM-based green card sponsorship has no annual cap at the EB-3 level for most countries and leads to permanent residency. The process takes longer, typically two to four years including PERM, I-140, and adjustment of status, but the outcome is a green card rather than a renewable work visa.
How long does the PERM process take for security operations roles?
The full EB-2 or EB-3 process typically runs two to four years for applicants from countries without significant backlogs. PERM labor certification alone averages six to eighteen months with DOL depending on whether the application requires analyst review. After PERM approval, USCIS processes the I-140 petition, followed by adjustment of status or consular processing depending on visa availability and your current status.
What documentation strengthens a PERM application for this role?
Your employer must demonstrate that no qualified U.S. worker applied for the position during the recruitment window. On your side, transcripts confirming your degree field, employment verification letters showing progressive security operations responsibility, and technical certifications such as CISSP, CEH, or GIAC specializations help establish that you meet the specific requirements posted in the PERM job description.
Where can I find employers actively sponsoring green cards for security operations jobs?
Use Migrate Mate to search for Senior Security Operations Engineer positions at companies with verified PERM filing history. Many job postings mention visa sponsorship without specifying whether the employer has experience completing the full PERM and I-140 process for security roles. Filtering by actual green card filing activity gives you a more accurate picture of which employers can realistically see the sponsorship through to approval.
