With a focus on both autonomous security systems involving human oversight and independent operations, CYBRET AI works to address critical challenges in cybersecurity. Based on innovation and advanced research, the organization aims to revolutionize the integration of artificial intelligence in safeguarding global digital ecosystems. The lab emphasizes collaboration and robust technology development to contribute to a safer digital future. ## Role Description This is a full-time, on-site position for a Founding Researcher based in Stockholm. The Founding Researcher will play a critical role in conceptualizing, leading, and executing advanced research initiatives in AI-driven security. Responsibilities include formulating novel research questions, designing experiments, developing and validating AI algorithms for security applications, collaborating across disciplines, and advancing the state-of-the-art in autonomous security systems. The Founding Researcher will also contribute to the technical vision, publish in top conferences/journals, and help shape the research culture of CYBRET AI. ## Qualifications - Proven research background in AI, machine learning, or related fields, with strong publication record or demonstrable research impact - Proficiency in research-level programming with languages such as Python, C++, or Java - Familiarity with AI and machine learning frameworks (e.g., TensorFlow, PyTorch) - Deep understanding of cybersecurity concepts, including threat modeling, detection, and prevention methodologies - Experience in designing or implementing security systems and algorithms - Knowledge of cloud computing and scalable distributed architectures is a plus - Strong analytical, problem-solving, and critical-thinking skills - Ability to collaborate in a dynamic, innovative startup environment - PhD or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Cybersecurity, or related field; advanced degree preferred - Experience mentoring or leading research teams is a significant advantage Bonus - STEM Olympiad credentials or notable research competitions - Demonstrated top achievements in relevant domains ## Compensation and Benefits - Competitive salary with equity participation - High-performance laptop provided - Covered mobile phone and wifi expenses - Fully remote work environment - Annual learning and development stipend of 500 USD ## About CYBRET AI ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: CYBRET AI builds an autonomous security platform that uses a unified knowledge graph and neurosymbolic reasoning to continuously discover, validate, and respond to real attack paths across code, cloud, identity, and APIs. - **Entity Type**: Private (early-stage, no disclosed funding rounds) - **Headquarters**: Global (remote-first; team distributed across EU and US) - **Founded**: 2025 - **Founders**: Not publicly disclosed (described as a deliberately small group of security researchers, AI engineers, and former operators) ## Core Business - **Primary industry**: Cybersecurity (autonomous application security, exposure management, runtime detection and response) - **Target customers**: Enterprise AppSec teams, CISOs, and security operations (B2B) - **Mission/purpose**: Replace noise and manual effort with continuous, evidence-based validation and machine-speed defense — “no noise, no guesswork, only proven exposures.” ## Products & Services - **Exposure Intelligence** (SaaS): Unified knowledge graph across 30+ sources (code, cloud, identity, SIEM, ITSM) to surface exploitable attack paths and rank by real-world risk. Deduplicates thousands of findings into a handful of real paths. - **Validation** (SaaS): Continuous autonomous re-attack of every deploy and config change to earn or revoke “critical” status with signed proof-of-exploit capsules (trace, privilege graph, screenshot, rollback). Compliance-grade evidence for SOC 2, PCI, HITRUST, DORA. - **Runtime Detection** (SaaS): Graph-native anomaly detection fused with UEBA and rule engines. Correlates runtime signals with known exploitable paths; agents author and execute reversible responses (contain, rotate, revert, validate) and synthesize runbooks. - **Pricing tiers**: Free (one repo, full Exposure Intelligence, community support), Pro ($990/month, up to 25 apps, attack path analysis, Slack+Jira routing), Enterprise (custom, with all three products and priority support). ## Market Standing - **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not disclosed - **Key Metric**: Early stage — no public revenue or funding round announced; team size under 25 people - **Notable Investors/Partners**: Not publicly listed; described as a “private research lab” with founder-led sales and early design partners - **Growth Signals**: Active hiring for seven roles across engineering, research, security, and go-to-market; live platform at app.cybret.ai; processing 1.2 million events per second; expanding into US market (SF expansion planned) ## Competitive Advantages - **Neurosymbolic reasoning engine** that traverses code, identity, cloud, and APIs the way an attacker would, rather than relying on CVSS scoring or scanner noise. - **Autonomous agent orchestration** with full reversibility and auditability — every agent action is scoped and reversible, enabling machine-speed response without risk. - **Unified knowledge graph** that correlates findings across 30+ connectors, deduplicating thousands of alerts into a handful of real, exploitable paths. - **Continuous validation** that runs on every deploy or config change, not just periodic pen tests. ## Strategic Focus - **Build a category-defining autonomous security platform** by expanding the knowledge graph, improving agent reasoning, and proving the model with enterprise design partners. - **Scale go-to-market** in both EMEA and North America with a founder-led, proof-driven sales motion. - **Maintain a small, high-leverage team** (<25 people) that owns unreasonable amounts of the product end-to-end, with deep focus and no ghost managers. ## Why Work Here - **Remote-first, async culture** with global team (EU and US); co-location when it matters, remote when it doesn’t. - **Flat structure** where each person owns a surface of the product top-to-bottom — no layers, no busywork, deep focus by default. - **Transparent compensation** (salary or OTE shared on the first call), meaningful equity, home-office stipend, and real PTO. - **Hiring process** is under two weeks from first call to offer, no whiteboard leetcode, no unpaid projects; five-step process adapted to the role. - **Work on genuinely hard problems**: neurosymbolic reasoning, agent orchestration, machine-speed defense — with a live platform and early customers already putting it to work. ## Sources 1.
