Position Summary

We are seeking a highly skilled Security Researcher who views a black box not as a roadblock, but as an invitation. We need an investigator with an insatiable, demonstrated curiosity for figuring out how software and hardware truly work under the hood—regardless of how they are advertised or intended to function. In this role, you will be on the front lines of vulnerability discovery, dismantling complex systems to expose their flaws. You will frequently operate in the dark, confronting entirely new pieces of software or hardware with zero documentation. Success requires extreme comfort with uncertainty, a hypothesis-driven approach to experimentation, and the engineering chops to build custom utilities when off-the-shelf tools fall short.

You will not be working in a silo. You will push your research to the absolute limit, but you also possess the wisdom to know when to ask for help, share your breakthroughs, and collaborate to drive the broader project forward.

Role Expectations

Typically has a University Degree (BA/BS) or equivalent experience and minimum 5 years of prior relevant experience.
Works to achieve operational targets with a significant impact on the job area often influence departmental results.
Responsible for making adjustments or recommending enhancements to systems and processes to solve problems or improve effectiveness of job area.
Communicates and collaborates within and occasionally outside of own job area and may work to influence parties within own job area at an operational level.
May provide guidance and assistance to junior individual contributors.
Requires practical knowledge of job area typically obtained through advanced education combined with experience.

Contract Specific Qualifications

Deep experience with the Windows OS architecture, kernel, hardware abstraction layer, Win32 API, memory management, and security mitigations
Expert-level understanding of Windows binary formats, calling conventions, and execution flows
Advanced knowledge of Windows-related file systems
Knowledge of Windows networking stack and proprietary protocols
Strong knowledge of static and dynamic analysis tools and methods
Fluent in x86/x64 assembly, ARM assembly, C/C++, and Python
Experience with creating and orchestrating automated AI workflows, integrating traditional reverse engineering tools
Experience with frontier models (e.g., GPT-5, Claude), Binary Ninja, Ghidra, IDA Pro, WinDbg
Great communication skills and ability to integrate work products with other tools
