An Exploit Developer is a cybersecurity professional who researches and develops exploits to identify security vulnerabilities in systems, applications, or networks. They analyze software and hardware for weaknesses, create proof-of-concept exploits, and work with security teams to patch vulnerabilities before malicious hackers can exploit them. This role requires deep knowledge of programming, reverse engineering, and security protocols. Some exploit developers work in ethical hacking or penetration testing, while others conduct research for security firms, government agencies, or cybersecurity vendors.
To thrive as an Exploit Developer, you need a strong background in computer science, reverse engineering, low-level programming (C/C++, Assembly), and vulnerability analysis. Familiarity with tools such as IDA Pro, Ghidra, Metasploit, and debuggers, along with relevant certifications like OSCP or GREM, is highly beneficial. Analytical thinking, persistence, excellent problem-solving, and clear documentation skills set outstanding professionals apart in this field. These abilities are essential for identifying and leveraging system weaknesses effectively and collaborating securely within advanced security teams.
Exploit Developers often encounter complex and evolving security architectures, which require continuous learning and adaptation to stay ahead of new safeguards and patch mechanisms. Collaborative troubleshooting, regular knowledge sharing, and working closely with security researchers and penetration testers are common approaches teams use to overcome obstacles. Many organizations foster a supportive environment, providing access to the latest research, tools, and test labs to encourage innovation and success. This collaborative and dynamic atmosphere helps Exploit Developers keep their skills sharp and deliver high-impact results.

Lead vulnerability research across OS, kernel, firmware, hypervisor, embedded, and application targets
Identify and evaluate new attack surfaces, carrying research from initial hypothesis to validated finding
Reverse engineer and perform in-memory analysis of compiled binaries across x86, x64, ARM, and PowerPC
$156,000 - $234,000
St. Petersburg, FL (Melbourne, FL and San Antonio, TX also considered) | On-Site | Relocation Assistance Available
The OpportunityThis is a research role, not a security operations job. You'll spend your time hunting for previously unknown vulnerabilities across operating systems, kernels, firmware, hypervisors, and embedded platforms — reverse engineering compiled binaries, developing proof-of-concept exploits, and defeating modern mitigations like ASLR, DEP/NX, and CFI.
You'll scope your own attack surfaces, drive research from hypothesis to validated finding with minimal direction, and work alongside senior researchers who care about technical depth over titles. If you've spent your career building offensive capability rather than defending against it, this team was built for people like you.
Why You'll Love This RoleYou'll work across a genuinely wide target set: x86, x64, ARM, and PowerPC architectures, spanning kernels, firmware, hypervisors, mobile platforms, RTOS, and networking protocols. That breadth means you won't get boxed into a single stack.
The team culture is explicit about valuing technical curiosity over hierarchy — you're encouraged to go deep on the problems that interest you. You'll have access to industry-standard tooling (IDA Pro, Ghidra, fuzzing frameworks, symbolic execution tools) and you'll also help build and improve internal research tooling and automation.
Compensation runs $156K to $234K, and relocation assistance is available if you're not already local to St. Petersburg, Melbourne, or San Antonio.

If you've built your career around finding what others miss — and you'd rather be the one writing the exploit than the one patching against it — this team wants to talk to you.
