We are seeking an experienced, visionary Cyber Research Team Lead to guide and grow a multidisciplinary cyber research team. You will lead a group of domain experts – from network engineers and identity specialists, to red-teamers, protocol researchers, penetration testers, data analysts and cloud/virtualization experts – working collaboratively to build our next-gen AI-based posture management platform. As team lead, you will both manage the team and shape the research agenda: coordinating cross-domain investigations, defining priorities, mentoring researchers, and ensuring that research output feeds directly into scalable, intelligent workflows and product capabilities.
If youre passionate about cyber research, enjoy nurturing technical talent, and thrive on building complex, multi-domain security products – this is your chance to build and lead a research team that defines how AI defends modern enterprise infrastructure.
The Responsibilities
Lead, mentor, and coordinate a diverse, multi-domain cyber research team.
Define and drive the teams research agenda, establishing multi-domain security research priorities aligned with company goals and product roadmap.
Translate research findings into actionable AI-based deliverables – such as automated workflows and agentic flows integrated into the AI-based posture management product.
Coordinate and work in multidisciplinary squads to build customer facing product, ensuring real-world relevance and impact.
Maintain research excellence and innovation culture – encourage internal knowledge-sharing, code/tool reuse, and continuous learning.
Recruit, grow, and manage talent -identify skill gaps, hire new researchers, mentor researchers, and foster a collaborative, high-performance team environment.
Stay current with emerging cyber threats, infrastructure trends (cloud, virtualization, identity systems), adversarial techniques and AI-driven security trends – and evolve research strategies accordingly.
