    The Role At Cobalt, we are evolving the way we approach security research.

We are looking for a candidate with a strong foundational background in Systems Administration who wants to transition into security research. You will be the bridge between red and blue-using your knowledge of how systems are built to help us identify how they are compromised and, more importantly, how to protect them. What You'll Do As an Associate on this team, you will be the backbone of our research operations. You will handle the foundational "grunt work" that powers our high-level research while being mentored to become a full-scale Security Researcher.
