• Perform internal and external penetration tests on applications, APIs,



cloud environments, and network infrastructure.
• Review Google Cloud configurations, IAM, firewall rules, and exposed services for security misconfigurations.
• Assess container images and Kubernetes workloads for vulnerabilities and insecure configurations.
• Coordinate with external penetration testers and ASV scan vendors, and validate their findings. 4. Remediation & Reporting
• Prepare explicit vulnerability reports with severity ratings (CVSS), proof of concept, and practical remediation guidance.
• Work with developers and DevOps engineers to resolve identified vulnerabilities and conduct retesting.
• Track security findings through closure within agreed timelines.
• Report security posture and vulnerabilities to management.
• Support incident response and investigate security events and suspicious activities. 5. Policy, Compliance & Awareness
• Understand and implement the company's security policies and procedures in daily activities.
• Support PCI DSS requirements, including vulnerability management, secure development, quarterly scans, and annual penetration testing.
• Assist in preparing security audit evidence.
• Conduct secure-coding awareness sessions and share security best practices across teams. What We Are Looking For Required Qualifications
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Security, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• 4–5 years of hands-on experience in Application Security, Penetration Testing, or Security Engineering.
• Proven experience performing penetration tests on web applications, APIs, and internal and external infrastructure.
• Hands-on experience testing Android and iOS applications.
• Ability to read and review source code for security vulnerabilities, with familiarity in Go, Dart/Flutter, JavaScript/TypeScript, or similar languages.
• Strong working knowledge of OWASP Top 10, OWASP API Security Top 10, and OWASP MASVS/MASTG.
• Hands-on experience with security tools such as Burp Suite, OWASP ZAP, Nmap, Metasploit, Nessus, OpenVAS, Qualys, MobSF, Frida, Semgrep, SonarQube, Trivy, and similar tools.

• Security certifications such as OSCP, OSWE, eWPTX, GPEN, GWAPT, CEH, CompTIA PenTest+, or eMAPT.
• Experience integrating security tools into CI/CD pipelines (DevSecOps).
• Scripting skills in Python, Bash, or Go to automate security testing.
• Experience with bug bounty programmes or published CVEs.
• Experience with SIEM, log analysis, or incident response. What Makes You a Great Fit
• You think like an attacker but work like a partner to the engineering team.
• You are thorough, curious, and persistent when identifying security weaknesses.
• You communicate risks clearly and provide developers with practical solutions.
• You follow up until security issues are successfully resolved.
