TL;DR · Senior Threat Intelligence Researcher

As a Senior Threat Intelligence Researcher, you will join the security team to lead deep-dive investigations into emerging and known threats while monitoring malware developments to stay ahead of evolving attack methods. You will synthesize complex data from internal hunt findings, dark web forums, leak sites, and research repositories into actionable intelligence and risk assessments for senior leadership. Your daily work involves conducting hypothesis-driven threat hunts across cloud environments and endpoints, mapping actor footprints via EDR telemetry, and tracing external infrastructure through domain registrations and SSL certificates. You will utilize YARA to track malware families and leverage frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK, CISA KEV, EPSS, AMITT, and MISP Galaxy. Required skills include malware analysis using static/dynamic techniques, debugging, technical writing, and a solid understanding of software vulnerabilities and EDR functionality.

What you'll do

  • Synthesize complex data from internal findings and external sources into actionable threat briefings for senior leadership.
  • Lead hypothesis-driven threat hunts across internal networks, cloud environments, and endpoints to uncover sophisticated intrusions.
  • Map threat actor footprints internally by pivoting through EDR telemetry.
  • Analyze adversary tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) to identify shifts in execution and lateral movement.
  • Trace external adversary infrastructure using domain registrations, SSL certificates, and passive DNS.
  • Monitor malware developments and use YARA rules to track new malware families.
  • Develop refined hunting strategies to anticipate and counter changes in threat actor tradecraft.

What we're looking for

  • A background in threat research, threat intelligence, or threat hunting.
  • Knowledge of the cyber threat landscape, including threat actors and their tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs).
  • Strong analytical skills to identify patterns and trends in large datasets.
  • Strong knowledge of YARA for tracking malware families and validation best practices.
  • Understanding of software vulnerabilities and ability to implement hunting strategies to track exploitation.
  • Knowledge of MITRE ATT&CK, CISA KEV, EPSS, AMITT, and MISP Galaxy.
  • Knowledge of malware analysis tools and techniques, including static/dynamic analysis, sandboxing, and debugging.
  • Technical writing skills; EDR understanding and certifications like CMA, CREA, or GREM are preferred.
