תיאור המשרה
Description
We are looking for an exceptional Security Researcher to join Aqua’s world-class security research organization. Looking for an experienced researcher in the cybersecurity world with depth, and excellence in cloud-native security research.
As a Security Researcher, you will work on deep technical research on several areas – working with other researchers, and transforming advanced offensive insights into scalable defensive capabilities.
What You Will Do
- Research and analyze sophisticated attack techniques targeting Linux-based cloud-native systems, including Kubernetes, containers, and serverless environments.
- Reverse engineer Linux malware families to extract behavioral patterns, execution flows, and persistence mechanisms.
- Study real-world threat actor techniques and translate findings into actionable detection, prevention, and hardening strategies.
- Design and prototype advanced detection logic and observability mechanisms, including kernel- and runtime-level approaches (e.g., eBPF).
- Influence Aqua’s security strategy by turning research insights into capabilities that protect large-scale production environments.
- Collaborate closely with engineering and product teams to ensure research outcomes are impactful and scalable.
Requirements
- 4+ years of experience in security research with a strong focus on Linux-based systems.
- B.Sc. in Computer Science or equivalent experience from a military, academic, or advanced technical background.
- Deep, practical understanding of Linux internals (processes, syscalls, memory, networking, filesystems).
- Strong experience with malware analysis and reverse engineering in Linux environments.
- Proficiency in C and Python for low-level research, tooling, and prototyping.
- Proven ability to analyze attacker behavior and design corresponding detection or mitigation strategies.
- Strong familiarity with cloud-native technologies, including containers, Kubernetes, and container runtimes.
- Excellent communication skills, with the ability to explain complex technical findings clearly and influence stakeholders.
