You'll combine reverse engineering of complex, networked code bases with hands-on development and testing in support of the team's work — and you'll bring enough analyst instinct to help frame problems, run down leads, and explain what you find to the people who need to act on it. This is hands-on, deeply technical work where your impact is visible quickly: what you analyze, what you build, and what you discover all feed directly into the team's roadmap. Responsibilities Reverse engineer complex networked code bases to drive understanding and surface vulnerabilities. Develop and test software in support of the team's research and capability needs. Collaborate with analysts on their goals and identify where your effort moves them forward. Help customers articulate what they actually want, then translate that into clear technical work. Use analyst skills to run down your own analytical leads when needed. Document findings, code, and design decisions so the rest of the team can build on them. Skills Requirements Solid reverse engineering skills across at least one platform family (Linux, Windows, embedded, or mobile). Strong software development skills in at least one systems language (C, C++, Python, Go, or Rust). Familiarity with network protocols and analysis of network traffic. Comfort working independently as well as collaboratively on a small team. Familiarity with Git and Atlassian tooling (Jira, Confluence). Clear written and verbal communication. Nice to Haves Experience discovering novel software vulnerabilities. Experience with exploit development. Experience working as an exploitation analyst or interactive operator. Background reverse-engineering firmware, embedded devices, or mobile platforms. Familiarity with Ghidra, IDA Pro, radare2, or similar RE tooling. Experience with vulnerability research methodologies (fuzzing, static analysis, symbolic execution).
