Junior Security Research Engineer

About Nimble:

Nimble is the real-time web search platform built for enterprise accuracy, completeness, and trust. We run Web Search Agents that actively navigate live websites using real browsers and reasoning, turning the public web into governed, decision-grade data for AI systems and high-stakes business use.

Unlike index-based “AI search” tools or brittle legacy scraping, Nimble makes the live web queryable on demand, delivering structured outputs that teams can verify and rely on. Our platform powers use cases where correctness matters: financial due diligence, real-time pricing and promotions, market intelligence, and AI systems that depend on fresh, complete data.

Trusted by leading enterprises like Home Depot, Uber, and Coca-Cola and backed by top-tier investors, Nimble sits at the intersection of AI, automation, and real-time web intelligence.

As demand accelerates across AI, LLMs, and data-driven decisioning, we’re scaling quickly and looking for high-energy, driven teammates who thrive in fast-moving environments and want to help define a new category.
