Job Summary
In this role, you identify security vulnerabilities in web applications and infrastructure, conduct in-depth penetration tests, and support teams in addressing real risks through targeted PoCs and close collaboration.
Your role in the team
- As an Offensive Security Engineer, you'll act as an in-house attacker; finding and proving the risks that matter before anyone else can.
- You will play a key role in helping us build secure-by-default products by bringing an offensive mindset into everyday engineering decisions.
- Working closely with engineers, product managers, and DevOps, you'll uncover real-world attack paths, challenge assumptions, and help teams fix issues in a practical, scalable way.
- Perform in-depth penetration tests across web apps, APIs, and infrastructure—going beyond automated tools to uncover meaningful flaws.
- Develop clear, impactful PoCs that demonstrate real risk and help teams prioritize fixes effectively.
- Collaborate closely with engineers to guide remediation and validate fixes through re-testing.
- Contribute to threat modeling and design reviews, helping identify security gaps early in the SDLC.
- Build and refine scripts, tools, and testing approaches to improve coverage and efficiency.
