Principal Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) Analyst
Location: Pune, India (Hybrid) / Remote
Department: Research
The Role
We're hiring a Principal CTI Analyst to serve as the intellectual engine behind Qualys's threat intelligence capability. You won't write reports that collect dust — you'll build the intelligence layer that turns exposure data into decisive action for thousands of organizations.
Your job is to deliver premium, tailored threat intelligence — insights that are relevant to the customer's environment, grounded in the latest threat landscape, and paired with actionable recommendations they can execute immediately.
What You'll Do
Curate Intelligence That Drives Action
- Serve as a key member of the team shaping the editorial direction of our threat intelligence stream — separating signal from noise at scale.
- Craft threat briefs that go beyond technical write-ups: context, relevance, and a clear call-to-action every time (isolate, patch, investigate, escalate).
- Set the bar for what "actionable intelligence" means inside the product.
Operationalize Threat Research
- Translate raw threat data into product-level requirements for Engineering — ensuring intelligence triggers remediation workflows, not just alerts.
- Leverage Qualys' massive backend telemetry to validate threat trends and shape product direction.
