As a Lead Security Research Engineer at SecPod, you will play a crucial role in the security research and development team. Your primary responsibility will be to conduct in-depth research on the latest vulnerabilities, exploits, and frameworks, with a focus on developing security content and signatures. You will provide technical leadership to security research engineers and collaborate with cross-functional teams to enhance the security posture of enterprise IT infrastructure. Your key duties will include researching and developing vulnerability detection scripts, understanding the correlation between vulnerabilities and malware, devising proof of concepts for detecting new vulnerabilities, and identifying strategies to mitigate these security risks. Additionally, you will be involved in peer testing and quality assurance for the developed content, automating tasks using scripting languages like Python, and contributing to the development of security tools. To excel in this role, you should possess 5-8 years of experience in security research within Security/Cloud/SaaS-based organizations, along with a strong grasp of security, vulnerabilities, and exploits. Proficiency in at least one programming language (e.g., Python, C, C++, LUA) is essential, as well as a solid understanding of IT infrastructure management, information security, and various security technologies. Knowledge of system and network security, experience across Unix/Linux, Windows, Mac systems, and virtualization will be advantageous. Furthermore, you are expected to have expertise in creating, reproducing, and demonstrating proof of concepts for the latest vulnerabilities, with additional skills in exploit development and IDS/IPS signature development considered a plus. Strong analytical capabilities, effective interpersonal skills, and the ability to multitask and prioritize efficiently are essential qualities for success in this role. Excellent verbal and written communication skills in English, coupled with a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science Engineering, are prerequisites for this position.
