We are seeking a Senior Security Researcher - Risk Researcher to join our highly technical product research team working at the core of our cloud security platform. This is a rare opportunity to join an elite cloud security research team and do work that directly shapes our product. In this role, you will define how cloud risk is understood and modeled, lead the development of novel risk logic and scoring methodologies, and translate complex attack paths into meaningful insights for customers.
You will conduct deep technical research across cloud environments to uncover new attack vectors, analyze real-world exploitation paths, and contribute to building a unified view of risk across identity, infrastructure, and data layers. Your work will directly influence how we prioritize risk, reduce noise, and establish a clear ground truth for what truly matters in cloud security.
We are looking for an exceptional, adversary-focused researcher who can bridge cloud security knowledge, threat modeling, and data-driven risk analysis. You are curious, comfortable with ambiguity, and driven to deeply understand how attackers operate in modern cloud environments.
Your Opportunity:
Own Risk Across our Cloud Security Platform: Define cloud risk by grounding findings in how exposure is actually created and exploited. Collaborate with engineering and product teams to introduce new data sources and signals that validate exposure. Establish a rigorous validation framework for risk logic to minimize noise and ensure high-fidelity alerts. Define the 'Ground Truth' for what constitutes a critical risk versus a theoretical vulnerability.
Lead Novel Toxic Combination Logic: Conduct deep technical research to discover novel risks and attack vectors across identity, network, workload, and third-party data to produce attack paths. Work with teams across us to develop and refine the quantitative scoring models that aggregate disparate signals (e.g., CVSS, EPSS, identity permissions) into a unified risk score.
Lead Complex Discovery: Build resource, identity, and permission relationships to improve our asset inventory and relationship modeling. Understand customers requirements and ensure deliverables address real needs.
Conduct Cloud Threat Modeling: Analyze services and architectures from an attackers perspective to define trust boundaries and data flows, and ensure the product covers newly identified attack paths. Present findings in blogs, reports, and leading industry conferences.
Research Emerging Cloud Services: Evaluate new cloud services to establish secure configuration and architectural best practices where no prior guidance exists, and partner with PMs to deliver them through the platform.
Shape Cloud Security Strategy: Provide a broad technical view across cloud domains to identify strategic gaps and drive product direction and features.
