Research and develop real-time protection against advanced cyberattacks for Microsoft Defender, analyzing massive telemetry to prevent sophisticated threats across hybrid and multi-cloud environments.
Join one of the elite research teams powering Microsoft Defender, the dominant market leader in XDR, SIEM, Cloud, and AI Security. We protect the world’s largest enterprises by analyzing trillions of signals to protect against sophisticated cyberattacks across hybrid and multi-cloud environments.
We are currently hiring for multiple Security Research positions across our Microsoft Defender Research teams in Israel. By applying to this unified pipeline, you will be considered for a high-impact role (at either the Security Researcher II or Senior Security Researcher role) within one of our specialized groups, including Autonomous Attack Disruption, Cloud Workload Protection, Identity Research, Posture Research, or Security for AI.
We are looking for passionate, highly skilled security researchers who thrive on the challenge of breaking complex attacker kill-chains. Leveraging Microsoft’s dominant market position and the world’s most massive telemetry set, you will have a direct, tangible impact on the security of the global economy. We are looking for researchers who want to see their findings transformed into production-ready protection, where the ultimate goal is not just to detect threats, but to prevent and stop them in near real-time.
Our team values diversity and strives to hire individuals with varied experiences and perspectives. We understand that no candidate possesses every desired skill and experience, but together, we form a strong, effective team.
Investigate real world advanced attacker TTPs to develop high-fidelity protection signals, and robust logic across complex kill-chains.
Design and implement innovative capabilities that autonomously prevent, detect and disrupt sophisticated threats in near real-time.
Infuse deep security expertise into the analysis of massive telemetry sets using big-data query languages, reasoning over data to identify novel malicious patterns, and drive evidence-based research decisions.
Partner with engineering and product teams to share research insights, validate protection concepts, and push ideas forward into production-ready protection at a global scale.
Contribute expert insights to a strategic feedback loop by analyzing real-world attack data and telemetry to refine protection coverage and accuracy.
By applying to this position, you are being considered for multiple like positions within our organization for an invitation-only virtual Interview Day. Position specifics, including hiring team, location, and position details will be determined following the interview process.
