At HUMAN, we are all about knowing who’s real. We are the global leader in bot mitigation. We protect more than 200 enterprises—including the largest internet platforms—from sophisticated bots by verifying the humanity of over ten trillion online interactions every week. The most sophisticated bots look and act like humans when they click on ads, visit websites, fill out forms, take over accounts, and commit payment fraud. We stop them.

Founded in 2012 in a Brooklyn sci-fi bookstore, our Bot Mitigation Platform protects enterprises from the sophisticated bots that threaten them. It’s an ongoing war that we fight passionately every day. Join our mission to stop bots, disrupt the economics of cybercrime, and keep it human.

Our Threat Intel team is responsible for proactively identifying new threats. Our team discovers, identifies, and explores bots, making attribution to software, malware, and actors. We predict new threats and anticipate new defenses. We search the open and dark internet to find actors and services that may pertain to bot or not. We imagine and prototype new capabilities that HUMAN comes to use at scale. We enable researchers to work in-depth and safely when probing the web’s dark corners.

You will play a pivotal role in the future of our company by defining the vision, strategy, and operations of the team.

You will create a differentiated Threat Intelligence program that builds on our unique data and SaaS assets. Our VP of Threat Intelligence will be responsible for supporting strategic accounts with critical insights, supporting our detection capabilities and creating ways to actively disrupt fraudulent operations.

What you will do:

  • Leadership. Lead and grow a team of investigators and hackers. Own and evolve the vision for a high-impact threat intelligence organization.

  • Gather knowledge. Stay abreast of cybersecurity trends and events related to our mission. Have a robust and diverse professional network. Direct the development of novel methods to track malware, botnets, and actors. Assess effectiveness and accuracy of new data feeds and data gathering techniques.
  • Guide a team that makes discoveries: Find the perpetrators of fraud. See if you can figure out who is doing it, document adversary tactics, techniques, and procedures. Investigating applications of uncertain maliciousness on multiple types of Operating Systems. Understand customer-specific requirements and impact and perform fast and effective ad hoc investigations for customers. Explore and characterize traffic anomalies. Collaborate with data science and machine learning teams driving scaled, efficient threat detection and analysis.
  • Take action: Share knowledge internally, leading to superior automated detection. Share externally through case studies and white papers on bot detection, supporting marketing, public awareness, and customer education. Develop techniques and technology to accelerate threat intel, scale our response, and empower partner teams. Gather evidence and make referrals to law enforcement. Coordinate take-downs and prosecution of bad actors.
