We are seeking a Senior Security Software Developer (R&D) to design, develop, and enhance innovative security solutions in a research-driven environment. You will contribute to the full software development lifecycle, from technical discovery and architecture through implementation, testing, deployment, and ongoing improvement. The role involves solving complex security challenges, evaluating emerging technologies, and translating research concepts into reliable, scalable, and maintainable products.
Your responsibilities will include developing secure, high-quality software; designing and reviewing system architectures; investigating vulnerabilities and emerging attack techniques; and creating prototypes, proof-of-concepts, and production-ready capabilities. You will collaborate closely with security researchers, software engineers, product specialists, and other technical stakeholders to define requirements and deliver effective solutions. You will also be expected to conduct code reviews, improve engineering standards, document technical decisions, and support automated testing, continuous integration, and secure development practices. Where appropriate, you may contribute to technical publications, patents, internal knowledge sharing, and presentations at industry or research events.
The successful candidate will bring substantial professional experience in software development, ideally within cybersecurity, application security, threat detection, cryptography, identity, cloud security, or a related field. Strong programming skills in one or more languages such as C++, Java, Python, Go, or Rust are required, together with a solid understanding of software architecture, algorithms, data structures, operating systems, networking, and secure coding principles. Experience with vulnerability analysis, reverse engineering, security tooling, cloud platforms, or embedded systems would be advantageous. You should be comfortable working independently on technically challenging problems while contributing effectively within a collaborative, agile team. Strong analytical, communication, and problem-solving skills, along with a passion for research and continuous learning, are essential.
