Cybersecurity Co-Founder / Head of Growth (100 % remote) (m/f/d)
EWOR GmbH
Trail of BitsFounded in 2012 by 3 expert hackers with no investment capital, Trail of Bits is the premier place for security experts to boldly advance security and address technology's newest and most challenging risks. It has helped secure some of the world's most targeted organizations and devices. Our combination of novel research with practical solutions reduces the security risks that our clients face from emerging technologies. Our work helps drive the security industry and the public understanding of the technology underlying our world.
Cybersecurity preparedness is a moving target. Companies like ours are the tip of the spear in the fight against attackers. Our research-based and custom-engineering approach ensures that our client's capabilities are at the forefront of what's available. For companies and technologies that live and die by their security, a proactive, tailored approach is required to keep one step ahead of attackers.
Democratizing security information is essential. As part of our business, we provide ongoing informational support through blogs, whitepapers, newsletters, meetups, and open-source tools. The more the community understands security, the more they'll understand why a company like ours is so unique and valuable.
Trail of Bits seeks a Security Engineer I for our Application Security practice. You will contribute to security assessments of client software, partner with more experienced engineers, identify vulnerabilities across the application and system levels, and own clearly scoped pieces of client engagements. You will drive your own vulnerability analysis, develop tools alongside the team, and help clients understand and fix the issues you find.
This role bridges vulnerability research and applied security. Your work will be hands-on: analyzing complex code, building custom tooling, conducting threat modeling, and owning your findings through client delivery. It is distinct from roles centered on security operations, SOC work, GRC, compliance, policy, audit, or general security administration. Candidates from broader or adjacent security backgrounds should be prepared to talk through relevant hands-on, code-level security work they have personally completed.
Security Engineer I is an early-career role, but it is not a training role for someone new to software or security. Relevant experience may come from professional work, internships, advanced coursework, independent research, open-source contributions, CTFs, or substantial personal or academic projects. Regardless of where you gained the experience, you should be able to talk through code-level security work you performed, how you approached the problem, and the conclusions you reached. You will receive direction and review from a project lead while independently completing well-scoped technical work.
The following are requirements for this role:
These are not day-one requirements, but areas where the role can grow.
The base salary range for this full-time position is $100,000 to $160,000 and will include additional bonuses. Compensation is informed by geographic location, relevant experience, and internal equity. These figures represent starting compensation for U.S.-based candidates. For specifics, please discuss with your recruiter during the hiring process.
Trail of Bits offers a comprehensive benefits package including health insurance, retirement contributions, professional development stipends, and generous PTO.
