About the Team
Rapid7's vulnerability intelligence team does industry-leading attack research that prioritizes and uncovers risk for organizations worldwide. Our researchers find and disclose zero-day vulnerabilities, write in-depth analyses of n-day bugs, identify patterns in emerging and established attack surface area, and help internal stakeholders, vendors, media, customers, and the public understand what's important, what's not, and why. We also drive company-wide emergent threat responses to widespread attacks that pose risk to customers, but we aren't satisfied with a merely reactive approach to security research - we seek to identify and contextualize the vulnerabilities and attack vectors that will turn into tomorrow's major threats.

You will set the vision for vulnerability intelligence at Rapid7, and the strategy for how we will achieve it.
You will own Rapid7's Emergent Threat Response (ETR) program, which operates across teams to provide best in class intelligence for emergent threats.
You will own Rapid7's Coordinated Vulnerability Disclosure (CVD) program, which governs how Rapid7 proactively performs novel zero-day vulnerability research, coordinates disclosure with external parties, and champions our expertise.
You will work across teams to establish and grow both relationships and processes with key stakeholders.
You will scale and manage a globally distributed team to achieve these goals.
You will take an active operational role in the programs you own.
You will champion our work by communicating our capabilities and vision to key parties.
The skills you'll bring include:
10+ years of experience in the cybersecurity industry, with at least 5 years in a leadership role.
Proven domain expertise in the field of software vulnerabilities and exploitation. You will know what kind of vulnerabilities matter the most and why. You will have a strong understanding of the current and evolving threat landscape, and the cybersecurity industry at large.
Strong leadership skills with a track record for leading and inspiring high impact technical teams.
Strong collaboration skills with a track record for working effectively across teams, functions, and time zones.
Strong communication skills to effectively transfer knowledge and the nuance behind our research to a broad audience. You will be able to engage with both a technical audience and a non-technical audience with ease.
We know that the best ideas and solutions come from multi-dimensional teams. That's because these teams reflect a variety of backgrounds and professional experiences. If you are excited about this role and feel your experience can make an impact, please don't be shy - apply today.
