Job Description:

Come join the company that is reinventing cloud security and empowering businesses to thrive in the cloud. As the fastest-growing startup ever, Wiz is on a mission to help organizations secure cloud environments that will accelerate their businesses. Trusted by security teams all over the world, we have a proven track record of success and a culture that values world-class talent. Our Wizards from over 20 countries work together to protect the infrastructure of our hundreds of customers, including over 50% of the Fortune 100, who trust us to scan and secure over 230 billion files daily. We’re the leading player in a massive and growing market, but it’s still early enough for you to make a significant impact. At Wiz, you’ll have the freedom to think creatively, dream big, and use your full range of skills to contribute to our record growth. Come join our team and help us create secure cloud environments that allow the best companies to move faster. We're looking for a talented AI Security Researcher to join our team and play a critical role in Wiz's foundational, risk-driven approach to cloud security. This role requires deep technical research into complex cloud- and AI-native environments to identify the most significant, unaddressed risks.

Job Responsibility:

  • Conduct deep technical research to discover and report novel risks and attack vectors specific to modern cloud and AI-native architectures and systems
  • Discover and articulate the highest unaddressed risk areas, working with Product and Engineering teams to translate research into product capabilities
  • Define necessary foundational product capabilities by delivering both compelling proofs of risk (demonstrating impact) and technical POCs (showing how to solve it)
  • Work closely with Product and Engineering teams to ensure comprehensive risk coverage and support the investigation of new and complex product scope

Requirements:

  • 5+ years of hands-on experience in security or security research, specifically relevant to modern cloud environments (AWS, GCP, Azure, Kubernetes, etc.)
  • Strong hands-on skills with scripting languages (e.g., Python, Go) for automation and research, as well as query languages (e.g., KQL, SQL) for efficient data analysis of security telemetry
  • Proven ability to work independently, prioritize effectively, and drive complex, multi-quarter research projects from initial concept through to clear, delivered impact
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with a track record of successfully collaborating with cross-functional teams (e.g Product, Engineering, Marketing) to achieve shared goals

Nice to have:

  • Specialized knowledge or research experience in AI security, focusing on risks to AI as deployed in the enterprise
  • Experience in public-facing work, such as presenting at recognized industry conferences, authoring technical blog posts, or publishing research
  • Experience conducting data-driven research and working with large-scale security telemetry to derive statistically significant or high-impact findings
What we offer:
  • Medical, dental and vision insurance
  • Home Office Setup reimbursement
  • Flexible Spending Accounts
  • Monthly Connectivity reimbursement
  • Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
  • Short- and Long-term Disability Insurance
  • Life & Accident Insurance
  • 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan (with employer match)
  • Flexible paid time off + 11 paid holidays
  • Paid leave programs, including parental, pregnancy health, medical and bereavement leave
