What programming languages and security skills are they looking for? I've only dabbled in Python and web security so far.

Their job description mentions Python fluency, understanding of networking, and experience with web security, so that's perfect! It's a good chance for you to expand that skillset and grow more experienced in the field.

There are many great resources available to get started with Security Research. I'd recommend checking out these books: The Web Application Hacker's Handbook, Black Hat Python, and Metasploit: The Penetration Tester's Guide. For online resources, check 'The Hacker Playbook' series on YouTube and Udemy courses in web security and penetration testing.
