    We’re looking for someone with hands-on experience in web application security, a solid understanding of penetration testing techniques, and a passion for staying ahead of emerging threats. If you’re eager to drive real improvements to our security practices and work within a dynamic team, this position will offer opportunities to sharpen your skills while making a significant impact on our security program.

    • Partner with our Security Operations Center (SOC) / Threat Hunt Team to operationalize new detection concepts

    • Coach and mentor team members where appropriate;

    • Perform any other appropriate job duties in line with the associated skill and experience of the post holder.

    • Ideally 2-4 years of experience as a Web Application Penetration Tester with industry recognised security certifications (OSWE, CCT APP);

    • Proven industry experience with offensive security tools (such as Burp Suite, Postman, SAST/DAST tooling);

    • Strong understanding of OWASP and MITRE ATT&CK framework;

    • Demonstrable knowledge of how modern applications are designed and deployed across different platforms and how to abuse workflow logic;

    • Ability to program or script in your preferred language;

    • Experience leading web application penetration testing projects and acting as a lead technical point of contact;

    • Capable of working independently with minimal supervision

      We know that the best ideas and solutions come from multi-dimensional teams. That’s because these teams reflect a variety of backgrounds and professional experiences. If you are excited about this role and feel your experience can make an impact, please don’t be shy - apply today.
