San José


Threat Research Analyst

About Netskope
Today, there's more data and users outside the enterprise than inside, causing the network perimeter as we know it to dissolve. We realized a new perimeter was needed, one that is built in the cloud and follows and protects data wherever it goes, so we started Netskope to redefine Cloud, Network and Data Security.
Since 2012, we have built the market-leading cloud security company and an award-winning culture powered by hundreds of employees spread across offices in Santa Clara, St. Louis, Bangalore, London, Melbourne, Taipei, and Tokyo. Our core values are openness, honesty, and transparency, and we purposely developed our open desk layouts and large meeting spaces to support and promote partnerships, collaboration, and teamwork. From catered lunches and office celebrations to employee recognition events (pre and hopefully post-Covid) and social professional groups such as the Awesome Women of Netskope (AWON), we strive to keep work fun, supportive and interactive.

About the Team
You will be a member of Netskope Threat Labs, a globally distributed team of security researchers and subject matter experts working together to solve today’s security challenges in new and innovative ways. The primary output of the Threat Labs Team is thought leadership (patents, blog posts, conference presentations, webinars, and podcasts) and product improvements (new features, protections against new threats). The Threat Labs Team collaborates closely with the security, executive, and marketing teams on thought leadership and the product, engineering, and data science teams on product improvements.

About the role

We are seeking a data-savvy Threat Research Analyst with technical expertise in threat intelligence, data mining, and analytics, and the ability to uncover emerging threats and trends by finding the needles in a vast data lake of global threat telemetry, covering both external adversaries and insider threats. The ideal candidate will extract intelligence from our vast threat telemetry, turning complex data into meaningful and actionable insights.

We are seeking researchers who want to have a real-world, positive impact on our customers and the broader security community. You will work closely with internal product and engineering teams to ensure that your insights translate into practical defensive measures for our customer, enhancing existing product features and driving innovation.

In addition to technical expertise, strong communication skills are essential. You will be expected to share your knowledge with the world—through blogs, reports, conference presentations, and other forms of thought leadership. Your ability to communicate complex ideas clearly and compellingly is just as important as your technical skills. You’ll work closely with product management, marketing, and PR to make sure our innovations and insights reach the global stage, helping make the world a safer place.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Threat Research: Conduct deep-dive analysis of cybersecurity threats, emerging trends, and attack vectors using data mining techniques across threat intelligence data and telemetry.
  • Data Mining & Analysis: Use analysis tools (e.g., Jupyter, Looker, Spark, SQL) to sift through large datasets, identifying patterns, anomalies, and relevant statistics that highlight current and emerging threats.
  • Threat Landscape Monitoring: Stay up to date with current and emerging threats, providing timely updates and recommendations for public communications.
  • Reporting & Visualization: Translate data findings into meaningful reports and visualizations for both internal and external use, providing clear narratives for media consumption.
  • Data Integrity: Ensure accuracy and reliability of data insights by validating the quality and consistency of data sources.
  • Thought Leadership Support: Collaborate with thought leaders within the organization to support the creation of white papers, blogs, and media content focused on security threats.
  • Cross-functional Collaboration: Interface with PR, marketing, and executive teams to provide expert insights and analysis that will shape public communications, press releases, and reports related to cybersecurity trends.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Proven experience in threat intelligence research, cybersecurity analysis, or data science.
  • Expertise in data mining, machine learning, or advanced analytics tools for threat intelligence (e.g., Big Query, Jupyter, Looker, Spark, SQL, Snowflake, Data Bricks)
  • Strong understanding of cybersecurity threat vectors, attack techniques, and mitigation strategies.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with an ability to craft data-driven stories for public consumption.
  • Knowledge of data visualization tools (e.g., Matplotlib, Looker, Power BI, Tableau) and techniques for representing threat data.
Education
  • BSCS or equivalent required, MSCS or equivalent strongly preferred
