We're looking for a Security Researcher to join our team at the intersection of security research, AI, and product. This isn't a traditional research role - you'll be deeply embedded in how the platform is built, working side by side with R&D, Product, and AI teams to make sure security expertise is baked into every layer of what we ship. You'll own detection and analytics research across cloud, identity, endpoint, and beyond, while actively shaping how AI capabilities are applied to solve real security problems at scale.

WHAT YOU WILL DO
Research and develop sophisticated detections and behavioral analytics across multiple security landscapes - cloud, identity, endpoint, network, and application - with a focus on coverage that scales across customer environments.
Work closely with R&D, Product, and AI teams as the security authority - reviewing features, shaping designs, and ensuring security logic is sound, practical, and impactful.
Apply an AI-native approach to detection and analytics challenges - leveraging LLMs, ML signals, and AI-assisted workflows to do things that rule-based approaches can't.
Identify gaps in detection coverage and analytical capabilities, and drive those findings directly into the product roadmap.
Analyze real-world attacker techniques and translate them into detection logic, hunting content, and analytical frameworks that ship as part of the platform.
Evaluate detection quality rigorously - measuring fidelity, coverage, and performance against real attacker behavior and production telemetry.
Stay sharp on the evolving threat landscape and rapidly incorporate new techniques, campaigns, and attacker tooling into our detection library.
Contribute to external research output - blog posts, talks, open-source tooling - that reflects our depth and point of view in the security community.

We're looking for a Threat Detection Researcher to join the Threat Research team and spread the power of our company. In this role, you will further develop the Cloud-native Threat Detection domain.

Responsibilities
Drive the full lifecycle of security detections - from threat research and data analysis to building and shipping detection logic directly into production.
Design behavioral baselines for complex cloud environments using diverse signals, and develop high-fidelity detections based on those baselines.
Expand our company's detection engine with novel and high-impact telemetry sources, pushing the boundaries of what can be detected in modern cloud environments.
Conduct deep technical research into complex cloud services to uncover novel attack vectors.
Investigate real-world attacks across cloud environments, identity providers (IDPs), and infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) platforms.
Hunt and analyze emerging threats and active campaigns targeting the cloud ecosystem.

We're looking for a talented AI Security Researcher to join our team and play a critical role in our company's foundational, risk-driven approach to cloud security. This role requires deep technical research into complex cloud- and AI-native environments to identify the most significant, unaddressed risks.
Responsibilities
Conduct deep technical research to discover and report novel risks and attack vectors specific to modern cloud- and AI-native architectures and systems.
Discover and articulate the highest unaddressed risk areas, working with Product and Engineering teams to translate research into product capabilities.
Define necessary foundational product capabilities by delivering both compelling proofs of risk (demonstrating impact) and technical POCs (showing how to solve it).
Work closely with Product and Engineering teams to ensure comprehensive risk coverage and support the investigation of new and complex product scope.
