We are looking for a Security Researcher with strong experience in network attacks and protocols and solid Rust development skills, to identify vulnerabilities in the networking stack, build high-performance offensive and detection tooling, and contribute to models for detecting malicious traffic.

Responsibilities

  • Research and exploit vulnerabilities in network protocols and implementations (TCP/IP, TLS, DNS, HTTP/2–3, QUIC, VPN, routing, Wi-Fi) and in exposed devices and services.
  • Develop security testing tools in Rust: protocol fuzzers, scanners, packet crafting, traffic parsers and high-performance detection components.
  • Reverse engineer proprietary protocols and network firmware/services; write PoCs and exploits for the vulnerabilities identified.
  • Emulate network attack techniques (lateral movement, MITM, tunneling, C2, exfiltration) and build datasets and signatures for detection.
  • Collaborate with the ML team on feature engineering and traffic anomaly detection models.

Requirements

  • 3–5+ years of experience in network security / offensive security / research;
  • Very good knowledge of network attacks and of how protocols work at the packet level; experience with Wireshark, Scapy, nmap, Burp or equivalents;
  • Hands-on Rust experience (async, tokio, FFI, socket-level or raw-packet networking); Python for prototyping and analysis;
  • Strong Linux experience (netfilter/eBPF, namespaces, network stack) and with virtualized test labs;
  • Hands-on infrastructure pentesting or vulnerability research experience, with demonstrable results (CVEs, advisories, published tools, write-ups).

Nice to have

  • Applied ML on network traffic (anomaly detection, classification, PyTorch / scikit-learn);
  • Experience with eBPF/XDP, DPDK or other high-speed packet processing technologies;
  • Firmware reverse engineering (IoT, routers, embedded devices);
  • Malware analysis with a focus on C2 communication and custom protocols;
  • Participation in CTFs (pwn/network categories) or bug bounty programs.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
