- Track and engage with threat actors across the clear, deep, and dark web to gather further insights and intelligence that are otherwise inaccessible.
- Act as a leading source of knowledge in threat intelligence, supporting other departments with your wide range of skills and expertise.

**The skills you'll bring include**:

- 1+ years of experience in cyber intelligence or an equivalent role with advanced familiarity with cybercrime communities and OSINT sources and tools.
- 2+ years of experience in the cybersecurity industry or equivalent knowledge in cybersecurity fundamentals and concepts acquired through formal education.
- Experience in a customer-oriented role and ability to grasp, synthesize, and summarize complex concepts clearly and engagingly.
- Experience in investigating threats using OSINT, HUMINT, and other research techniques to identify threat actors and their TTPs, providing context to threats and drawing conclusions from incomplete or missing data.
- Technical proficiency in extracting threat data (IPs, domains, ports, malware, malicious communications) from multiple sources.
- Business understanding and familiarity with corporate security solutions.
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills in English.

**Advantages**
- Bachelor's degree in a relevant discipline.
- Proficiency in foreign languages, with preference for Russian.
