We’re a team obsessed with building cutting-edge tech that actually makes a difference in making the internet a safer place. We’re talking about real-life hackers who know their stuff. You'll learn from the best and join a team that combines human ingenuity with automation to streamline asset discovery and vulnerability assessments.\nWhat you’ll get to do\nAs a Security Researcher, your main mission is to develop proof-of-concepts for novel ways of detecting vulnerabilities, broadening what Detectify’s engines can find. In other words, your research ends up protecting thousands of real-world attack surfaces.\nOther responsibilities include:\nStay on top of the latest security research, disclosures and techniques, and figure out which ones we can and should turn into scalable detection.\n\nResearch new attack vectors and vulnerability classes that can be automated, and identify where we can source them.\n\nDesign and build agentic workflows that use AI to uncover new vulnerabilities and 0-days.\n\nReverse engineer binaries to find vulnerabilities and understand how they can be exploited.\n\nReview detection code to make sure our tests are accurate and keep false positives to a minimum.\n\nAct as a go-to security expert for colleagues across the company and help with security-related questions and tasks.\n\nTalk with customers to understand their attack surfaces and security challenges, and use those insights to shape what we research and build next.\n\nWho you are\nYou’re highly versatile and self-motivated, and you can create and drive change. You’re active in the security community and you understand how vulnerabilities work, not just that they exist. You probably also have:\n\nHands-on experience finding and exploiting live vulnerabilities, for example through bug bounty programs, CVEs, CTFs, penetration testing or published research.\n\nDeep knowledge of web application security and common vulnerability classes (OWASP Top 10 and beyond).\n\nSolid programming or scripting skills (for example Python or Go) and the ability to turn an idea into a working proof-of-concept.\n\nCuriosity about using LLMs and AI agents in offensive security, or experience building with them already.\n\nThe ability to explain technical findings clearly to engineers, customers and non-security stakeholders.\n\nBonus points if you:\nHave experience with reverse engineering.\n\nHave publicly disclosed vulnerabilities, written blog posts or given talks at security conferences.\n\nWhat’s in it for you?\nHybrid work\nThis position is for the Stockholm office. We offer hybrid working, with access to our office in central Stockholm and would like to see you at the office at least 3 days per week.\nSo, what do you think? We are proud to foster an inclusive workplace free from discrimination. We strongly believe that diversity of experience, perspectives, and background will lead to a better environment for our employees and a better product. This is something we value deeply and we encourage everyone to be a part of changing the way the world thinks about security! Go hack yourself!\nPlease note that to be eligible for this position, candidates must already possess a valid work visa for Sweden, as we are unable to provide visa sponsorship or relocation assistance.","description_format":"text","description_chars":3343,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Hybrid work","Relocation assistance"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"Sweden","iso":"SE","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":true,"industries":["Cybersecurity","Threat Intelligence","Application Security"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-22T16:33:42Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":11,"expected_fill_days":56,"reasons":["conf:2","velocity","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-11-01T06:10:25Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/detectify-senior-cyber-security-researcher","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/detectify-senior-cyber-security-researcher.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-01T08:27:26Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":13241,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-02T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":44837},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=44837"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fdetectify-senior-cyber-security-researcher"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fdetectify-senior-cyber-security-researcher"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fdetectify-senior-cyber-security-researcher"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/detectify-senior-cyber-security-researcher\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fdetectify-senior-cyber-security-researcher"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3097475}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"detectify.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3097475},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
