Position Overview
Vectra AI’s Security Research team studies how attackers operate and turns that knowledge into capabilities that help customers find and respond to threats. We are looking for a Senior Security Researcher to help define and investigate the security challenges created by enterprise AI adoption and AI-enabled attackers.
You will study how agents, copilots, AI-connected applications, and their identities can be misused or compromised. You will also examine how attackers use AI to accelerate familiar attack techniques. Your research will connect activity across identity, cloud, and network environments, with a focus on what customers can observe, investigate, and act on. This is an emerging area: you will help test assumptions, identify gaps in visibility, and shape the work that follows.
