About the Role

Security Brigade is hiring a Senior Security Researcher to work alongside ShadowMap, our proprietary attack surface management platform. You will analyse alerts the platform surfaces - web and mobile application exposure, data leaks, dark-web findings, and exposed code repositories - validate them through hands-on penetration testing, and drive remediation conversations directly with customer engineering and security teams. You will own customer-facing technical engagements end-to-end: scoping the validation, demonstrating proof-of-concept, helping the customer fix what we found, and contributing back research that improves the platform itself.

What Youll Do

- Analyse the attack surface intelligence ShadowMap surfaces - web/mobile alerts, data leaks, dark-web exposure, code-repo leakage, exposed services




- Validate findings through targeted manual penetration testing; produce proof-of-concept exploits where customers need evidence
- Lead client-facing remediation conversations including executive summaries, technical walkthroughs, and follow-up validation
- Collaborate with customer engineering teams to ship fixes and revalidate them
- Feed research back into ShadowMap - new attack patterns, false-positive reduction, scoring improvements, current detection ideas
- Mentor junior researchers and contribute to internal knowledge-sharing

What Were Looking For
- 4+ years of hands-on web application penetration testing experience
- Deep working knowledge of OWASP Top 10 and the OWASP Top 10 Proactive Controls - both how to attack and how to advise on remediation
- Comfortable working customer-side: presenting findings to engineering teams, demonstrating exploits live, and walking remediation owners through fixes
- Track record on practical labs (Hack The Box, TryHackMe, PortSwigger Web Security Academy) is a strong signal even without enterprise experience
- Excellent written communication for client-facing reports and executive summaries

What We Offer- Sponsorship for relevant offensive-security certifications (OSCP, OSWE, OSCE, CRTO, BSCP)
- Direct authorship influence on a real product (ShadowMap) shipping to enterprise customers
