As a Malware Researcher, you will analyze and reverse engineer malware and tooling used by advanced threat actors, particularly those targeting governments and critical infrastructure. You will apply deep expertise in binary and script analysis to uncover capabilities, configurations, and C2 infrastructure for threat actor attribution and mitigations.
Your work will power our companys malware catalog, strengthen our understanding of threat actors technical capabilities, and directly support the development of next-generation AI-driven "artificial cyber researchers".
The Responsibilities
Perform in-depth static and dynamic analysis of malware, implants, loaders, and related tooling used by APTs and other sophisticated adversaries.
Reverse engineer binaries and scripts (e.g., PE, ELF, .NET, PowerShell, JavaScript/VBA) to determine capabilities, execution flow, persistence mechanisms, and evasion techniques.
Extract and document configuration data and C2 information, and map these to campaigns, infrastructure, and threat actors in collaboration with CTI researchers.
Develop and maintain detection and hunting artifacts such as YARA rules, VT LiveHunt queries, CAPA rules, and sandbox behavior signatures.
Work closely with CyberAI researchers on the development of next-generation artificial cyber researchers and AI-driven analysis capabilities.

As a Senior Threat Intelligence Researcher, you will be responsible for tracking advanced adversaries and leveraging your deep technical expertise across attacker capabilities, infrastructure, and tactics. You will create and refine approaches to uncover and monitor active threat actors, as well as surface irregular and emerging behaviors in the broader threat landscape. The intelligence you generate will directly strengthen our companys understanding of threat actors and will inform proactive hunting, detection engineering, and defensive decision-making.
The Responsibilities
Lead complex threat intelligence investigations through in-depth analysis of the global threat landscape, with a focus on advanced and state-linked actors.
Define and prioritize threat research focus areas (actors, campaigns, sectors, techniques) aligned with our companys customers and product roadmap.
Deliver actionable cyber threat intelligence and design and execute hunting campaigns using analytics, automation, and advanced AI capabilities.
Curate and maintain structured knowledge on actors, campaigns, infrastructure, and TTPs in our companys internal threat knowledge base.
Work closely with CyberAI researchers on the development of next-generation artificial cyber researchers and AI-driven analysis capabilities.
