# Security Researcher Job Opening at CryptoMize

Security Researcher jobs in Delhi at CryptoMize are open on a rolling, always-hiring basis — the difference between a security vendor and a security practice is research, and this is the seat where ours happens. This is a full-time, permanent position with immediate joining, based at our New Delhi HQ, in the lab that serves both our own defense and the threat-intelligence engagements the agency delivers across 18 countries. The researcher studies malicious programs and the processes used to exploit systems, then turns that insight into protection. Below is the complete job description — responsibilities, requirements, the seniority path, and the selection process.

## Facts

- Location: New Delhi (HQ), CDR Building, Chhatarpur
- Type: full-time permanent
- Availability: immediate, rolling intake (always hiring)
- Compensation: discussed at screening

## What you will actually do

- Study malicious programs — malware, the processes they use to exploit systems, and the infrastructure they run on — in sandboxed lab conditions
- Use that insight to address and eliminate vulnerabilities: the research ends in a fix, a detection, or a defence, never just a paper
- Compile threat intelligence and analytics into the data-driven products the agency ships to defense and clients alike
- Identify, track, and study specific malware and threat iterations and their creators — understanding strategies well enough to anticipate future threats
- Propose recommended actions that protect against the malicious programs you have characterised
- Publish what is publishable — findings, advisories, and responsible disclosure that earn the agency standing in the research community
- Work the disclosure ethics line with precision — what is shared, with whom, and when, is a research decision with consequences

## Skills

- Malware analysis — static and dynamic, at campaign scale
- Vulnerability research and exploit-technique comprehension
- Reverse-engineering discipline on binaries and protocols
- Threat-intelligence compilation and analytics
- Adversary tracking and campaign attribution literacy
- Data-driven solution design — protection born from evidence
- Responsible disclosure judgement
- Technical writing for advisories, intelligence products, and client-facing research notes
- Presentation of research to technical and client audiences
- High-stress composure — live incidents interrupt research
- Clearance-grade discretion (non-negotiable)

## Tools

- Sandboxed malware-analysis environments
- Ghidra-class reverse-engineering suites
- Wireshark for protocol-level inspection
- Custom analysis scripting (Python-class)

### How is a Security Researcher different from a Security Intelligence Analyst?

The researcher works the unknown — malware samples, vulnerability discovery, adversary technique — while the intelligence analyst works the operational picture: detection stacks, live investigations, and monitoring. Research feeds vigilance; vigilance points research.
