AI​/Cyber Researcher

General Analysis is a frontier security lab. We protect the world as AI systems grow more capable and more dangerous in the wrong hands. We build high-fidelity research infrastructure that evaluates and strengthens frontier models on critical cyberdefense tasks, and we bring that research directly to enterprises — securing the AI systems they deploy through adversarial testing and runtime protection.

As an AI/Cyber Researcher, you will help shape the future of AI security evaluation. In this role, you will push the frontier of knowledge on what frontier models can do, how to measure it, and how to mitigate dangerous capabilities.

You will expand the quantity, quality, and diversity of our evaluation challenges, from original CTF-style exploitation tasks to network attack simulations and entirely novel classes of security challenges.

You will collaborate with expert red teamers, pentesters, and contracted security firms to ground these challenges in real-world difficulty.

You will research capability elicitation and jailbreak methods, and develop methodologies for assessing generalization and coverage in our evaluations.

Your work will engage the open questions no one else is equipped to answer:
Can an AI find and exploit 0-days? Can an AI elevate an average computer science student's cyber capabilities to those of a nation-state?

You will lead research into mitigating risks from AI misuse, model weight theft, and loss of control.

From time to time, you will publish results in blog posts and academic venues, and deliver findings directly to customers.

• You have a strong background in vulnerability or security research, such as CVEs, CTF competitions, malware analysis, or offensive tooling, or deep research experience with frontier AI models.
• You can design and implement novel research approaches for emerging AI challenges.
• You have publications in top-tier venues such as NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, or USENIX Security, or a track record of comparable applied work.
• You have a high level of agency, strong technical acumen, and clarity of thought.

• You are excited about applying novel research and new technology to real-world problems.
• You are excited to learn new domains and build deep context in AI security.
• You are results-oriented and can balance deep exploration with practical implementation.
• You proactively step outside defined boundaries to support the team's mission and unblock others.
