À propos

WP Cloud powers WordPress at scale, and security is a critical part of that foundation. We’re expanding our security team to support WP Cloud, while also contributing to the protection and intelligence provided by WPScan and Jetpack Protect. As a Security Researcher, you will analyze vulnerable and malicious code, track emerging threats, and help build the tools and processes that detect, prevent, and remediate malware and other security issues across the WordPress ecosystem. If you have a knack for solving puzzles and a passion for documenting and operationalizing solutions, this is a great opportunity to make a broad impact.
