We operate at the forefront of technology and research from our Paris office.
About the Role As a Senior Research Engineer you will work in a team with talented security researchers. You’ll champion innovation, and ensure research translates into impactful production solutions.
What You'll Do
Agentic scanning systems: Build systems that autonomously explore applications, maintain context, and execute complex testing strategies. Security detection engine: Design and implement reliable, production-grade vulnerability detection logic (injection, auth issues, business logic flaws, etc.). AI-driven testing: Integrate LLMs and structured reasoning into scanning workflows to improve coverage and reduce false positives. Distributed infrastructure: Work on systems that orchestrate thousands of concurrent scans (Kubernetes, queues, resource management). Performance & reliability: Ensure scans are fast, deterministic, and cost-efficient despite high complexity and concurrency. Core platform design: Contribute to architecture decisions around memory systems, execution environments, and data models.
Our Tech Stack & Focus
Languages: Python (primary), Go (performance/network components) Runtime: Containerized workloads on Kubernetes (EKS), supporting long and resource-intensive scans Scaling: Kubernetes Jobs & queue-driven autoscaling Web Automation: Playwright + headless Chromium Data: PostgreSQL, S3-compatible object storage, Redis (limited use) Messaging: Kafka Observability: OpenTelemetry, Grafana Cloud CI/CD & Infra: GitLab CI, Terraform
