Interested in Cyber Security? Enjoy searching for vulnerabilities in systems? Want to work somewhere that you can really make a difference?
Your passion and interest in Cyber Security will spur you on to research and discover vulnerabilities within systems to help protect National Security in the UK and overseas.
Our work is hugely varied providing many intellectual challenges following a Red Team approach to assess our products for vulnerabilities and secure them before they are released into the field. We secure a wide variety of technologies and therefore need versatile and passionate people to tackle the latest problems as technologies continue to advance. You’ll work on projects that range from short term security assessments to long term in-depth analysis of complex systems.
You’ll receive investment in your career development through technical training, professional accreditation, mentoring and on the job training. There is also the chance to travel overseas for conferences and training too.
**More About You**
- finding vulnerabilities in hardware, firmware or software
- producing proof-of-concepts to demonstrate an identified vulnerability
- providing detailed analysis to a design team on how a vulnerability could be mitigated
- code auditing against vulnerability bug classes
- using IDA Pro (or a similar disassembler) to reverse engineer binary files
- debugging software and analysing its interaction with operating systems
- reading and have a deep comprehension of one or more instruction sets (x86, ARM, MIPS etc)
- been credited for one or more CVE’s
- relevant certification from EC Council, GIAC, CREST or CHECK
- experience using Penetration testing tools
- experience of digital forensics
- experience or an understanding of microcontrollers and embedded systems
**Job description**:
- performing Vulnerability Research against our products, document your findings and where applicable provide proof-of-concepts to demonstrate a vulnerability, and then provide a practical mitigation for our product team to secure it
- contribute to project planning and meetings
- supervise or mentor less experienced engineers
**Person specification**:
You will be the type of person who:
- is technically curious, likes to take things apart to learn how they function
- has excellent problem-solving abilities and the ability to adapt to unplanned changes, overcoming obstacles and seeing tasks through to completion
- takes pride in being the ‘go-to person’, establishing your credibility equally with technical peers and non-technical end users
- values the opportunity of leading others to the right outcome, being able to manage any tensions between the end user and engineering worlds
- enjoys actively maintaining your technical knowledge, making sure that you keep up with all the latest developments
- enjoys working with a range of experts, knowing when to draw on their expertise to help you deliver project requirements
- feels confident with uncertainty, helping others to reduce and manage ambiguity around potential ways forward
- can communicate detailed technical information to a wide range of audiences including non-technical staff
- has an interest in mentoring junior engineers and sharing knowledge and experience with the team
**Benefits**:
Now that we’ve explained a bit about what you will we be doing, here’s what we can offer you
- 25 days annual leave, rising to 30 after 5 years’ service.
- 8 Bank Holiday days off in addition to your annual leave.
