Your Job Cyber security is our passion – yours too?

We are seeking a highly motivated and experienced Security Researcher & Red Team Operator. In this newly created and mixed role, you will be responsible for developing Red Team capabilities as well as executing Red/Purple Team projects. About 50% of the time you will perform attacker tradecraft research, publish technical blog articles on offensive-security topics and present findings at internal or external conferences. Staying up to date with the latest adversary tactics and vulnerabilities will be key to your success in this role – a role that involves developing and maintaining tools designed to bypass security controls for use in covert operations.

The second part of the job is to propose, plan, and execute Red Team and Purple Team operations based on realistic threats to InfoGuard and our clients. You will work closely with our Security Operations Center and Incident Response Team to improve detection and response capabilities. As part of your responsibilities, you will write detailed reports for clients covering the goals, processes, and results of Red Team operations, including significant observations and recommendations. You will also deploy and manage attack infrastructure for stealth operation. Besides this, you will also play an important role in mentoring and teaching other engineers within the Red Team.

Although you will be joining an existing team of talented professionals, this specific area of our Red Team is still under development. We are looking for someone eager to build up this function – while helping to shape new processes, tools, and strategies. If you are excited about being part of a team that is still growing and evolving, this role is for you!

We Want YouYou're not as confident as you'd like in every area? Every person has different strengths and talents. Your motivation and personality are more important to us than a top-class CV. Perhaps you have other skills that you can bring to us?

Your Team You are joining three colleagues in the Security Research & Red Team, which is part of InfoGuard’s Penetration Testing Team. Our Pen Testing Team consists of several (senior) professionals with different technical backgrounds.

We take on the role of the attacker for our customers and test their programs, protocols, and systems. We are constantly coming up with creative, unconventional ways to gain access to sensitive data. To this end, we also develop our own attack tools or use social engineering attacks such as phishing. After the attack, we support our customers as competent consultants – describing the vulnerabilities we have found and, above all, how the customer can eliminate them. We explain our results to other specialists, but also find the right words for people without specialist knowledge.

Working together is not only fun – we also learn from and with each other every day. In our day-to-day business, we mostly work operationally on projects – whether on site at the customer’s premises, in the InfoGuard offices or from home – whereby our technical expertise and creative solutions are definitely among our USPs. In addition to cross-team collaboration, we also focus on research, working together on complex challenges and testing new technologies. We also regularly present these at internal and external trade fairs. In short, there is never a dull moment with us. If you are eager to learn, enjoy working in a team and have a passion for pen testing, you have come to the right place.

Mario, Teamleader Penetration Testing & Red Teaming, and his team look forward to receiving your application.
