• Shape how people experience AI-driven job search

Responsibilities

• Monitor, triage, and respond to security incidents across cloud and application environments, from initial detection through root cause analysis and remediation
• Perform regular vulnerability assessments and penetration tests to identify weaknesses before they become exploitable threats
• Build and maintain security automation scripts and playbooks that reduce manual toil and accelerate incident response times
• Collaborate with engineering teams to conduct threat modeling and embed security controls into the CI/CD pipeline and application architecture
• Stay current with emerging threats, CVEs, and attack techniques, and translate findings into actionable hardening recommendations

Qualification

Required

• Recent graduate or entry-level professional (0–2 years of experience) with a degree in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, or a related technical field
• Strong proficiency in Python or Bash, with the ability to write scripts for security automation, log parsing, and threat analysis
• Solid understanding of network protocols, common attack vectors (OWASP Top 10, MITRE ATT&CK), and how vulnerabilities are discovered and exploited in practice
• A security-first mindset with the discipline to think adversarially and the communication skills to explain risks clearly to non-security stakeholders

Preferred

• Previous internship or personal project experience in penetration testing, CTF competitions, bug bounty programs, or security operations
• Hands-on familiarity with tools like Burp Suite, Nmap, Wireshark, or cloud-native security services (AWS GuardDuty, GCP Security Command Center)
• Experience working with SIEM platforms and writing detection rules or correlation logic for real-world threat scenarios
• Interest in application security and a willingness to dig into codebases to find and fix security flaws at the source
