About the role

We help organizations move AI out of experimentation and into production - safely, reliably, and at scale.
From inconsistent performance to limited transparency and challenges with integration and long-term viability, our Applied Intelligence Engine solves the risks that cause most AI initiatives to stall.
Built for some of the most highly regulated industries in the world, we enable teams to deploy AI systems that are auditable, explainable, and aligned with real-world constraints.

Develop AI-assisted vulnerability discovery workflows for source code, binaries, networks, and live systems.
Build and improve Clearwing's source-code hunting, network pen-testing, N-day exploit, reverse engineering, and validation pipelines.
Design agentic workflows for reconnaissance, static analysis, dynamic testing, exploit development, patch validation, and reporting.
Perform static analysis to identify vulnerable patterns, reachable attack surfaces, and exploitability conditions.
Develop and validate proof-of-concept exploits in controlled, authorized settings.
Build evaluation harnesses for vulnerability discovery quality, false positives, exploitability, reproducibility, and model/tool performance.
You'll combine hands-on offensive security work with LLM agent development, eval design, and product engineering.

3+ years of hands-on cybersecurity experience in vulnerability research, penetration testing, exploit development, reverse engineering, or security engineering.
Practical experience with at least two of:
Familiarity with Linux, Docker, Kali/security tooling, Git, CI, and shell workflows
Ability to reason from vulnerability signal to exploitability, impact, evidence quality, and remediation
Experience working with LLMs, agents, prompt engineering, evals, or AI-assisted security workflows
Experience with Ghidra, IDA, Binary Ninja, angr, Semgrep, CodeQL, Joern, AFL++, libFuzzer, ASan/UBSan, or OSS-Fuzz
Experience with CVE reproduction, N-day analysis, patch diffing, or exploit validation
