Job Description

We're Hiring:

AI Security Researcher – Leading AI-Cybersecurity (SF Bay Area)

Are you driven to break things just to understand how they work—and then build better defenses from the wreckage? We’re building the next generation of enterprise cybersecurity and are looking for an AI Security Researcher to help us push the limits of detection and response using AI, agentic systems, and your obsession with security.

About Us

We’re a well-funded AI startup ($25M seed round) in the San Francisco Bay Area , led by serial entrepreneurs with decades of success in cybersecurity (achieving > $3B valuations). We are partnering with Fortune 500 customers and on a mission to transform the cybersecurity landscape with cutting-edge AI , including AI agents and Generative AI.

Why This Role Matters

As one of our first AI Security Researchers, you’ll shape how modern cybersecurity systems think and act. Your work will drive AI models that automate analyst workflows. From prioritizing exposures to keeping the security stack up to date in real time, your research will power defenses that operate at machine speed—so humans can focus on what matters most.

What You’ll Do

· Craft Detection Strategies: Develop and refine detection mechanisms like signatures, behavior-based rules, and machine learning models to uncover malicious activities.

· Advance AI Capabilities: Partner with AI/ML teams to integrate your findings into agent-based models, product logic, and features that enhance customer-facing solutions.

· Produce Actionable Research: Focus on delivering detailed technical writeups, proofs of concept, and real-world results—leaving the fluff and buzzwords behind.

·

What We’re Looking For

· 7-10 years of hands-on experience in security research, threat intelligence, vulnerability management, red teaming, or detection engineering

· Experience with EDR, XDR, SIEM, or detection pipelines (e.g., Sigma, YARA, or custom rules)

· Bonus: Experience collaborating with AI teams, or building research systems that scale

Why Join Us?

· Early-stage impact with the stability of $25M in seed funding

· World-class leadership across AI, Engineering, and Product

· Traction with Fortune 500s already in motion

· Highly competitive comp & equity

· Health, wellness, and professional development benefits

· Access to the latest tools in AI/ML development

Work Location – San Jose, CA (5 days in the office, founding team)

Let’s Build the Future of Cybersecurity Together

If you're excited about AI, enterprise cybersecurity, and shaping a category from the ground up, we’d love to hear from you.
