As a Security Researcher , you will play a key role in shaping the future of modern runtime and AI security. You will investigate how real-world attacks unfold across applications and cloud environments, and turn those insights into innovative, production-grade security capabilities.

This role is ideal for a deeply technical researcher who is driven to understand attacks at their core - not just identify surface-level indicators. You will research exploitation chains, runtime behavior, attacker techniques, and emerging AI attack patterns, then apply that knowledge to build protections that are precise, resilient, scalable, and grounded in how attacks actually work.

Specifically, you will:

Research real-world attack techniques targeting modern applications, cloud-native environments, and AI-driven systems.
Design, develop, validate, and deploy detection algorithms based on technical research, large-scale runtime telemetry, threat intelligence, and exploit PoCs.
Shape the strategy for detection data collection by defining the required telemetry, collection points, and data quality standards needed to support effective protection.
Drive research efforts end-to-end, from initial exploration and technical investigation to production-grade protection capabilities for active threats.
Work closely with engineering and product teams to turn research into practical security capabilities.
