Job description

Overview

Security Engineer focused on Threat Intelligence for AI and technology targets, producing actionable intelligence that drives detections, hunts, and defensive priorities.

What you'll do

  • Research, track, and report on threat actors and campaigns targeting AI labs and other technology sectors.
  • Build and maintain tooling and automated pipelines to collect, enrich, correlate, and operationalize indicators of compromise.
  • Develop and execute intelligence-driven threat hunts across endpoint, cloud, identity, and SaaS telemetry.
  • Perform technical analysis of malware, phishing infrastructure, and attacker tooling to extract indicators, TTPs, and attribution signals.
  • Partner with Detection Engineering and Incident Response to translate intelligence into detection rules, hunting hypotheses, and incident context.
  • Curate and triage inbound intelligence from commercial feeds, open source, government, and trusted peer relationships.
  • Contribute to threat models and risk assessments and maintain external intelligence-sharing relationships.

What you'll need

  • 5+ years of hands-on experience in cyber threat intelligence, threat hunting, or intrusion analysis.
  • Deep, demonstrable knowledge of specific nation-state or advanced criminal threat actors (tooling, infrastructure patterns, tradecraft, targeting).
  • Production-quality Python (or similar) and experience building automation and data pipelines.
  • Comfort with malware analysis, infrastructure analysis (passive DNS, certificate pivoting, netflow), and log analysis.
  • Experience authoring detection logic (YARA, Sigma, Snort/Suricata, or SIEM-native queries) and understanding detection durability.
  • Ability to write clearly and concisely for intelligence products that are acted on.
  • Existing network in the threat intelligence community with a track record of bidirectional sharing.
