What are we looking for
We are looking for talented detection engineers who approach the world differently, explore hunting live, beat the system, and challenge it. They should address tough security problems and deliver solutions quickly.
What will you do
- You will be responsible for detecting the newest identity threats. The role includes end‑to‑end responsibility for behavior‑based detection capabilities, starting from researching attack techniques and designing new methods to detect or prevent them, and implementing them in the product.
- You will develop and use internal research tools, PoCs, and discover new ways to detect/prevent identity‑based attacks (e.g., Pass the Hash, Silver ticket, MFA bypass, etc.).
- At the end of the day your deliveries will enhance the security of dozens of millions of Windows endpoints protected by our platform.
What experience or knowledge should you bring
- 3 years of experience in malware analysis (static and dynamic).
- 3 years of experience with C.
- Excellent understanding of Windows Internals – how core system components (processes, threads, virtual memory, etc.) work behind the scenes.
- Experience with identity‑based attacks (Pass the Hash, Silver ticket, MFA bypass, etc.) – advantage.
- Experience with analysis tools such as IDA, WinDBG, SysInternals, etc.
- Kernel development experience – advantage.
- Advanced C – advantage.
- Understanding of existing AV internals – advantage.
Why us
Because you will work on real‑world problems with risks of millions of dollars (protecting against ransomware and other threats) and make an impact by preventing our customers from appearing in global news after being attacked. You will join a technologically cutting‑edge project and be able to influence the architecture design and building of our core platform. You will meet extraordinary challenges and work with the very best in the industry.
