Job Overview:

Autonomous Threat Triage & Verification

Design and build autonomous, search-augmented multi-agent orchestrator (e.g., Ideator-Critic-Scorer workflows) that instantly activates upon alert triggers to autonomously investigate and determine validity and authenticity of an anomaly/alert.

Vulnerability Discovery & Protocol Analysis

Utilize intelligent agents to analyse 5G/6G protocol stacks, correlating N2, N11, and user-plane interfaces to systematically identify architectural flaws, signalling exploits (such as SIM cloning), and network-initiated detachment vulnerabilities.

Implement real-time correlation & threat detection

Develop agentic tools leveraging deep log analysis and packet inspection (e.g., tshark/Wireshark) to correlate real-time telemetry from 5G UPF/AMF interfaces and automatically enrich security playbooks via high-precision GraphRAG systems.

Job Requirements:

Agentic AI & LLM Orchestration:

Expert-level proficiency with multi-agent orchestration frameworks (LangGraph, smolagents, OpenClaw) and local LLM runtime deployment engines (Ollama, llama.cpp, vLLM) using state-of-the-art open models like Qwen.

5G/6G Core Architecture & Networking:

Deep domain expertise in 5G cellular infrastructure (Open5GS, UERANSIM), protocol analysis, packet enrichment (IMSI/IMEI correlation), and software-defined network management.

Cybersecurity & Reverse Engineering:

Advanced skills in 5G attack/detection methodologies, binary decompilation (leveraging automated Ghidra workflows combined with LLMs), malware analysis, and security telemetry platforms (Keysight VisionX, Graylog).

Systems & Cloud Computing:

Hands-on experience with telco-grade cloud infrastructures (StarlingX, OpenStack, Kubernetes, Proxmox) and containerized microservice architectures using FastAPI, WebSockets, and JSON Schema lifecycle automation.

Preferred Qualifications:

Proven track record of engineering prototype development and hands-on system architecture in advanced networking or cybersecurity domain areas.

Demonstrated ability to rapidly prototype complex custom controllers, secure stackable filesystems, or hardware-in-the-loop testbeds (e.g., Raspberry Pi-based 5G setups).

A passion for continuous learning, bridging deep academic research with hands-on systems engineering.

Soft Skills:

Strong communication skills to collaborate with cross-functional teams (frontend, QA, network engineers).
