We are seeking an experienced Malware Research Architect who can design and implement advanced malware detection systems using Virtual Machine Introspection (VMI) techniques. The ideal candidate should have deep expertise in developing out-of-VM security solutions that can detect and analyze sophisticated malware, rootkits, and other cyber threats by introspecting and reconstructing volatile memory states of guest operating systems and file system states. Strong knowledge of file systems, and hypervisor technologies is essential. The candidate will craft automated malware detection systems that use VMI and file system techniques to predict early signs of malware execution and accurately classify unknown threats.

What you'll be doing:

  • Lead, research, design, develop and implement solutions for next-generation secure networks.

  • Develop novel introspection, memory forensics, and file system methods to extract critical security events towards threat detection.

  • Collaborate with external and internal hardware and software research teams to apply extracted events for advanced malware detection.

  • Architectural modeling, validation, microarchitectural definition, and developing proof-of-concepts secure platforms.

What we need to see:

  • MSc or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or Computer Engineering or equivalent experience.

  • 5+ years of relevant experience in memory forensics, introspection, operating systems, and file systems as well as common malware patterns and mitigation techniques.

  • Programming and debugging fundamentals across languages such as Python, and C/C++.

  • Strong communication skills and a genuine passion for working together as a team are vital.

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

  • Demonstrated security research experience and publications in top security conferences.

  • Experience with high-scale deployment challenges, networking, and machine learning.

  • Architectural background in hardware and software systems codesign.

What you need to know about the Belfast Tech Scene

If asked to name the birthplace of the RMS Titanic, you might not say Belfast. Similarly, if asked to name Europe's leading destination for foreign direct investment in new software development, Belfast might not come to mind. Yet, both are true. The city has emerged as a tech powerhouse, recently ranked among the best in the U.K. for tech careers — especially for software developers. It also leads the U.K. with the highest percentage of software development jobs advertised.
