Senior Security Engineer

Job description

## Senior Security Engineer **CYBRET AI** Remote Norway and Europe preferred Full-time Early hire with equity ## About CYBRET AI CYBRET AI is building **Autonomous Security Infrastructure** for modern organizations operating in complex, distributed, cloud-native environments. Our ambition is to move cybersecurity away from reactive, human-dependent workflows and toward continuous, intelligent, autonomous security. We design systems that combine human judgment where it matters with fully autonomous decision-making where speed, scale, and precision are required. We make a strict distinction between **automation** and **autonomy**. CYBRET AI does not rely on static rules or predefined playbooks. Our systems understand context, reason over attack surfaces and exposure, assess real-world consequences, and take risk-based decisions. Humans are involved only when escalation is necessary. Our primary focus is **Exposure and Vulnerability Management as a decision system**, not a reporting layer. Instead of listing CVEs or producing noisy scan results, our platform understands real attack surfaces, realistic attack paths, business criticality, identity relationships, trust boundaries, and how modern attackers chain exposures in practice. CYBRET AI answers questions such as: • What can actually be exploited right now • What creates real risk for the organization • What actions reduce risk most effectively We are building toward Azure, AWS, and Google Cloud Marketplace launches, with cloud-agnostic design as a core principle. ## About the Role This is a **senior security role** with deep technical responsibility and real ownership. You will help define how exposure, risk, and exploitability are modeled, analyzed, and acted upon inside autonomous security systems. Your work directly shapes how CYBRET AI reasons about security decisions. You will work across cloud security, identity, network security, detection engineering, and security architecture, closely influencing both product logic and technical direction. ## Responsibilities ### Exposure and Attack Surface Analysis Design and improve how CYBRET AI models attack surfaces across cloud, identity, network, and application layers Identify real-world attack paths and exploit chains rather than theoretical vulnerabilities ### Vulnerability and Risk Engineering Develop risk scoring and prioritization beyond CVSS Incorporate exploitability, exposure, identity context, and business impact into decision-making ### Cloud and Identity Security Design and evaluate security controls across Azure, AWS, and GCP Work deeply with identity systems, permissions, service principals, and trust boundaries Define secure patterns for cloud-native and hybrid environments ### Detection and Security Logic Contribute to detection logic, correlation, and multi-signal reasoning Distinguish noise from real risk to support autonomous decision-making ### Network and Zero Trust Architecture Design and assess secure network architectures including private networking, segmentation, and zero-trust principles Evaluate exposure through public services, APIs, and infrastructure ### Security Research and Threat Modeling Track attacker techniques, emerging threats, and exploitation patterns Perform threat modeling and security analysis to improve product logic and coverage ## How We Work CYBRET AI operates fully remote. The team is currently based in Norway, but we hire internationally. We recruit based on **merit, excellence, and intelligence**. We value deep focus, curiosity, and strong ownership. You are expected to work independently and make sound decisions in both low-effort, high-impact situations and high-effort, high-impact situations. A strong shipping mindset is essential. Security work at CYBRET AI must lead to real product improvements, not just analysis. Interest in security research and state-of-the-art techniques is strongly preferred. Writing technical blogs or research content is optional but highly valued. This is an early-stage startup. The pace is high, structure evolves continuously, and impact is real. ## Culture and Benefits Monthly social gatherings such as weekend trips, cabin stays, and team events are covered by CYBRET AI Dedicated budget for learning, courses, and professional development Small, highly skilled, talent-dense team Ambition to scale without sacrificing quality or depth English is the primary working language The company is Norwegian, with potential future transition to a US INC structure Fully remote role with home office agreement Laptop of your choice up to 20,000 NOK Optional home office equipment Mobile subscription and home internet fully reimbursed Strict confidentiality and correct handling of sensitive information is mandatory Ability to pass background checks and applicable security clearance is required Standard insurance coverage is provided ## Equity and Ownership CYBRET AI offers a **highly competitive and generous Employee Stock Option Program**.
