Automation Engineer

Summary
Data has never been more valuable and vulnerable. As cybercriminals become more sophisticated and regulations more strict, organizations struggle to answer one key question: “Is my data safe?“

At Varonis, we see the world of cybersecurity differently. Instead of chasing threats, we believe the most practical approach is protecting data from the inside out. We’ve built the industry’s first fully autonomous Data Security Platform to help our customers dramatically reduce risk with minimal human effort.

At Varonis, we move fast. We’re an ultra-collaborative company with brilliant people who care deeply about the details. Together, we’re solving interesting and complex puzzles to keep the world’s data safe.

Monitor, investigate, and drive resolution of failures and anomalies in automated tests and production environments.
Continuously improve test strategies, frameworks, and processes to optimize efficiency, speed, and test coverage.
Provide clear, actionable feedback to development teams on product quality and potential improvements.
Document testing processes, plans, and guidelines clearly for knowledge sharing across the team.
