Job description

Zealot is deploying AI systems at the center of western cyber operations , backed by tier-1 US VCs and industry leaders. Our team includes alumni of Anthropic, xAI, and Anduril. Soon live with close U.S. allies abroad.

APPLIED AI RE VR BARE METAL

Compensation 100K-195K + skin in the game equity

Location New York, NY On Site

Stage Early-stage startup backed by tier 1 investors. Small, growing team with exceptionally high ownership.

  • + Identify and exploit vulnerabilities in embedded systems, IoT devices, and real-time operating systems.
  • + Reverse engineer firmware to map attack surfaces, discover bugs, and develop reliable exploits.
  • + Build scalable tooling for automated vulnerability discovery across diverse embedded platforms.
  • + Research novel attack techniques against constrained environments and proprietary protocols.
  • + Strong reverse engineering experience with embedded firmware and bare-metal systems.
  • + Proven vulnerability research experience: CVEs, advisories, or offensive work on embedded targets.
  • + Deep understanding of ARM, MIPS, or other embedded architectures.
  • + Proficiency with hardware debugging (JTAG, UART, SPI/I2C) and firmware extraction.
Nice to Have
  • + Experience with RTOS platforms: VxWorks, FreeRTOS, ThreadX, QNX.
  • + Proficiency with Ghidra, IDA, Binwalk, and custom analysis frameworks.
  • + Experience with protocol reverse engineering (Zigbee, BLE, proprietary RF).
  • + Familiarity with supply chain security and hardware implant research.
  • + Experience building with LLMs and AI agents.
  • + Published research or conference presentations on embedded security.
  • + Clearly interested in stepping away from purely manual research and moving toward the development of AI systems.
  • + Building something massive matters more to you than comfort, titles, or predictability.
  • + You want to be early at a company that will change an industry, and you're ready to do what that actually takes.

Note to recruiting firms: Embedded vulnerability research and exploit development are the core requirements. Hardware hacking and RTOS experience are strong pluses.
