• Experience with C on Android NDK, including ARM64 shared library development
• Experience with offensive security concepts including implant persistence, beaconing protocols, payload staging, and self-update mechanisms
• Experience with reverse engineering tools, such as IDA Pro, Ghidra, Frida, and Jadx, sufficient to interpret researcher-provided artifacts and integrate them into production software
• Experience with build systems, such as ndk-build, Make, CMake, or Gradle, and GitHub Enterprise CI/CD
• Experience with Docker, Python, scripting, and build automation
• HS diploma or GED

Nice If You Have:

• Experience with Kotlin for Android development
• Experience with JavaScript for integrating or adapting browser-based exploit chains
• Experience integrating with C2 frameworks via SDK client libraries, SSE-based tasking, or JWT-authenticated APIs
