Security Researcher

Role Overview

Zenyard is building an AI-powered reverse engineering agent. As a Security Researcher, you’ll help shape how the system understands real-world binaries, by reversing complex targets, finding where automation breaks, and turning that insight into product capabilities.

This is a hands-on research role with direct product impact: your work will influence accuracy, explainability, and trust in the results we deliver to security teams.

What You’ll Do

• Reverse engineer complex binaries and large real-world codebases
• Analyze malware samples and vulnerability-relevant behavior (as needed)
• Identify edge cases and failure modes in decompilers and reversing workflows
• Work closely with engineering to translate findings into robust product features
• Validate accuracy and explainability of analysis outputs across diverse targets
  

What You Bring

• Strong background in reverse engineering or security research
• Experience with low-level programmingDeep understanding of operating systems, binary formats and common executables format
• Comfort working with decompiled code and imperfect signals: partial symbols, noisy decompilation, obfuscation, etc.
• Ability to clearly communicate technical findings
  

Nice to Have

• Experience with vulnerability research or malware analysis
• Experience reversing high-level languages
• Public work: blog posts, talks, or CTF participation
