• Run bug bounty operations, triage reports, and follow remediation of serious findings.
• Build reusable methods and tools for adversarial testing of AI agent controls.
• Monitor software supply-chain risks, including malicious packages beyond standard vulnerability scanning.
• Coordinate external penetration tests and track remediation; prepare compliance evidence as needs arise.

Requirements

• At least five years of professional experience, with meaningful software engineering experience building production systems before transitioning into security.
• Product or application security experience across threat modeling, secure design, white-box code review, and vulnerability testing.
• Proficiency in a systems or backend language such as Rust, Go, C++, or Python, and willingness to read production code and build tools.
• Experience creating security automation and conducting security reviews of production software.
• Understanding of identity and access management, software supply-chain risk, and AI security testing.
• Clear written communication and the ability to work autonomously with high ownership.

Nice to have

• Experience in web3, cryptocurrency, or DeFi.
• Familiarity with enterprise identity and SSO, privileged access management, Linux hardening, multisignature key management, hardware security modules, or trusted execution environments.
