Browser Security Engineer Intern
Posted Updated
Description
You will conduct original research into how browser-based bots evade detection. You will develop and test detection hypotheses, validate new signals against customer data, and prepare your strongest findings for engineers to build and ship. You will work with JavaScript, Chromium internals, and internet protocols while independently driving your research direction.
Responsibilities
- Study how browser-based bots evade current detection using Chromium and JavaScript internals
- Develop and test original hypotheses and new detection signals for BrowserGuard
- Validate detection ideas against real customer data without flagging real users
- Hand the strongest signals and feature ideas to engineers in a buildable form
- Take on high-value stretch projects outside the immediate role scope
Requirements
- Be a Master's or PhD-level computer science student or recent graduate, or have equivalent depth
- Have programming ability and research instincts
- Understand bot detection and fraud strategies
- Know JavaScript deeply and be able to learn Chromium internals and internet protocols
- Be able to work independently on open-ended research problems
