  6. Produce clear, well-documented methodologies and technical write-ups, communicating complex security concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences.
  7. Collaborate asynchronously with project stakeholders to iterate on frameworks and incorporate feedback into deliverables.


Preferred Qualifications

  1. 5+ years of hands-on experience in offensive cybersecurity, red teaming, exploit development, or vulnerability research (8–20 years preferred for senior contributors).
  2. Track record as a principal security engineer, exploit developer, cloud red-team lead, malware reverse-engineer, or security researcher specializing in attack chains or social engineering.
  3. Deep expertise in cyber attack methodologies, exploit chains, and cloud/application security assessments.
  4. Strong background in malware analysis, reverse engineering, and/or social engineering tactics and defenses.
  5. Demonstrated ability to produce clear, actionable written and verbal communication for a variety of audiences.
  6. Advanced degree, relevant professional security certifications, or equivalent operational experience highly valued.
  7. Experience building benchmarking or evaluation frameworks in cybersecurity is a plus.
