Application Security Researcher

Description

About the Position

OX Security secures the AI-driven SDLC from prompt to production. We eliminate critical, real-time risks from AI code generation through cloud runtime by doing what conventional tools can’t: unifying development and cloud context to stop vulnerabilities right at the source. At OX, we’re building the future of cyber security for the AI era. If you’re looking to work on disruptive technology with an amazing team, you belong here.

We’re looking for a highly skilled Application Security Researcher to join our Security Research group and help us push the boundaries of modern AppSec. This is a critical, hands-on role where you’ll work closely with engineers, researchers, and AI & data scientists to build the next generation of application security – including autonomous, agentic pen testing capabilities.

This is not a typical AppSec role. You’ll be building, breaking, and redefining how offensive security works at scale.

Requirements:

What You’ll Be Doing

• Research vulnerability chaining, business-logic flaws, and complex attack paths across applications and infrastructure
• Design and build detection engines and decision-making logic for autonomous security systems
• Evaluate AI models for application security use cases, measuring where they perform and where they fall short
• Prototype, build, and ship security capabilities into production environments
• Analyze large-scale security data to uncover exploitable attack paths and improve detection accuracy
• Partner with Product, Engineering, and Data teams to shape the next generation of security features
• Help set the team’s research direction and own initiatives end to end, from idea to shipped capability
