Job Description
About Attacked.ai
Attacked.ai is building the world's first immersive, end-to-end attack simulation platform. From cyber to physical, insider to geopolitical, our simulations prepare organizations to handle real-world threats — not just react to them.
Our interactive simulations challenge teams with realistic scenarios including ransomware attacks, social engineering attempts, physical security breaches, and supply chain disruptions – all in a controlled, educational environment.
Powered by AI, gamification, and real-time threat intelligence, Attacked.ai turns attack readiness into an enterprise-wide experience.
At the core of our platform is GUARD, our proprietary control framework that bridges simulation with action, and risk with response.
We're not here to make noise — we're here to change how the world prepares.
Now we're on the hunt for sharp, curious, fast-learning individuals who want to work on something that matters.

???? Bonus Points For:
