Our mission is to make open source packaging secure by default, providing complete visibility, governance, and protection across Python, Java, and JavaScript ecosystems. We're building the infrastructure that will secure companies and shape how enterprises adopt AI-driven development safely. If you're passionate about defending critical infrastructure at scale and want your work to directly protect millions of installations, we want you to join us. The Role As a Cybersecurity Researcher, you'll be the engine behind what makes Safety's security offering better than alternatives. Your research will directly contribute to protecting thousands of developers worldwide and millions of package installations across Python, Java, and JavaScript ecosystems. You'll hunt malicious packages in real-time, enrich vulnerability data that powers our industry-leading database, and validate reachability analysis that tells customers exactly which vulnerabilities matter in their code. Your research becomes the intelligence layer behind Safety's Firewall. When you catch a malicious release, you're auto-blocking attacks before they reach production environments. This isn't research in isolation. You'll work at the intersection of security analysis and product development, seeing your findings ship to customers within days. You'll develop detection rules that run against 70,000+ daily package releases, reduce false positives that improve customer trust, and contribute original research that positions Safety as
