Company Description: Well-funded AI security startup

Job Description:
You will join a pioneering security research team at the intersection of generative AI and cybersecurity.

Location: Remote, EU/UK

Why this role is remarkable:

  • Join a high-caliber team of hands-on leaders with a track record of successful exits, IPOs, and leadership roles at major tech firms.

  • Direct product influence where your day-to-day research insights shape the development of next-generation security tools used by thousands of organizations.

What you will do:

  • Lead high-volume vulnerability labeling operations and validate cloud security findings to create high-quality training data for AI models.

  • Conduct comprehensive research into vulnerabilities affecting EC2, Docker, and cloud infrastructure while building proof-of-concept exploits to validate threat scenarios.

  • Translate patterns from your research into actionable product improvements by collaborating directly with engineering and machine learning teams.

The ideal candidate:

  • Possesses 5+ years of hands-on security experience with a strong background in vulnerability research and cloud-native attack vectors (AWS/Containers).

  • Demonstrates strong technical investigation skills with proficiency in Python or Go for automating research tasks and creating validation tools.

  • Combines an analytical mindset with a product-focused approach, capable of communicating complex technical findings to both technical and business stakeholders.

We never post fake jobs
