Summary

Senior
🎓
Top School
Parisa Kianmajd is a Principal Offensive Security Researcher with 12 years of experience in red team operations, reverse engineering, exploit development, and binary analysis, currently driving offensive research at Oracle after leading cyber operations at MITRE. Her background blends deep academic research—a PhD focused on privacy, provenance, and cryptographic approaches—with hands-on firmware and microarchitecture tooling at Intel, where she built static analysis frameworks for uCode/iceCode and devised memory alias checks for UEFI/BIOS. She is comfortable moving between high-level protocol and system design (blockchain and privacy-preserving protocols) and low-level exploit techniques (ROP chaining, interrupt hooking, kernel internals), giving her rare cross-layer expertise. Known for finding subtle microcode and boot-time vulnerabilities missed by simulators, she brings a forensic mindset to proactive security hardening. Based in the Washington DC–Baltimore area, she combines rigorous research methods with practical engineering to turn complex threat models into actionable detection and mitigation tools.
