Senior Reverse Engineer - Remote
Hybrid (Remote / Global)Full-timePosted 2mo ago
About the role
Role focused on building tools, pipelines, and automation to scale reverse-engineering of antibot and fingerprinting systems, leveraging AI/LLMs and agentic tooling to accelerate discovery-to-solution cycles.
Responsibilities
- Reverse-engineer the hardest antibot and fingerprinting systems on the web, across JS VMs, WASM, and polymorphic/obfuscated code
- Build JS function tracing, deobfuscation pipelines, and fingerprint-inspection tooling to turn manual investigations into fast, repeatable, automated workflows
- Use AI aggressively (LLMs, agents, custom automation) to deobfuscate, classify, diagnose detection surfaces, and prototype and ship tooling
- Build and maintain website intel pipelines with checkpointed history to diff against known-good baselines when updates occur
- Feed AI reverse-engineering and ban-resolution systems with context, signals, and structured intelligence for autonomous case resolution
- Codify one-off reverse-engineering wins into durable capabilities (tools, rules, pipelines) usable by engineers and AI agents
- Collaborate across engineering to integrate tooling into the browser and automation stack; mentor others in AI-augmented reverse-engineering technique
Qualifications
- A hacker mindset with ability to rapidly develop proof-of-concepts and working tools
- Demonstrated use of AI tooling (LLMs, coding agents, automation) to accelerate engineering
- Strong proficiency in JavaScript/Node.js and Python
- Strong research, debugging, fuzzing, and reverse-engineering skills (static, dynamic, concolic analysis)
- Hands-on experience reversing JavaScript VMs, WASM, and obfuscated or polymorphic code
- Deep understanding of operating systems and computer networking concepts
- Adept with tools like Wireshark, Burp Suite for intercepting/debugging network traffic
- Understanding of browser engines, browser fingerprinting, and antibot/anti-scraping mechanisms
- Logical prioritization with measurement-backed strategy; collaborative environment
