We are seeking a highly skilled Cyber Threat Intelligence Expert to join our team in evaluating Large Language Models (LLMs). The expert will focus on evaluating LLMs' ability to reason about cybersecurity preparedness, response strategies, and recovery tactics within realistic yet hypothetical cyber incident scenarios. The ideal candidate will have a deep understanding of cybersecurity principles, risk-based reasoning, and strategic foresight. This role requires the ability to craft creative, open-ended questions that challenge the LLMs to demonstrate coherent, justified, and technically sound decision-making pathways with uncertainty.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Develop open-ended questions and answers based on hypothetical cyber incident scenarios to evaluate LLMs, focusing on coherence, justification, and technical soundness.

Required Skills:

5+ years in penetration testing, ethical hacking, or security consulting.

  • Deep understanding of cybersecurity principles, including risk-based reasoning and strategic foresight.

  • Proficiency in creating detailed and realistic yet hypothetical cyber incident scenarios in written reports.

  • Ability to evaluate and assess the technical soundness and coherence of responses.

  • Strong analytical and critical thinking skills.

  • Strong understanding of ethical hacking methodologies, experience with vulnerability assessment tools, and knowledge of legal and ethical considerations in cybersecurity.

  • Relevant certifications (e.g., CISSP, CISM, CEH) are highly desirable.

Preferred Experience:

  • Experience in cybersecurity incident response and recovery tactics.

  • Familiarity with various cybersecurity frameworks and standards (e.g., NIST, ISO/IEC 27001).

  • Knowledge of LLMs and their applications in cybersecurity.

  • Experience with cybersecurity technologies and services, such as SIEM, IDS/IPS, firewalls, authentication, and encryption.
