- Identify, validate, and document security vulnerabilities
- Assess Active Directory and Windows-based environments
- Develop custom offensive security tools and proof-of-concept code for controlled testing environments
- Perform vulnerability research and exploit analysis
- Analyze malicious techniques, malware behavior, and attack chains for defensive research
- Perform reverse engineering and debugging when required
- Evaluate security controls, including endpoint protection and detection mechanisms

What We Value

We are looking for someone who understands how modern attacks work at a deep technical level — not simply someone who knows how to run automated security tools.

The ideal candidate can think like an attacker, develop their own tooling when necessary, understand complex attack chains, and translate offensive findings into meaningful security improvements.

All offensive security activities are conducted exclusively within authorized systems and controlled environments.
