Open positions

We are currently open for PhD members and summer interns.

Most projects involve program/software/app analysis (static and dynamic) and threat modeling.

We look for people with passion, creativity, and persistence. We work as peers in a respectful and collaborative environment, and therefore value humility.

In the lab you will:

• investigate real‑world attacks and develop novel defenses
• design and implement tooling for malware creation and analysis, vulnerability scanning, or decision making in resource constrained environments.
• participate in LoboSec CTF activities and mentor junior members
