**The Team**

At Aflac Northern Ireland, we are building a diverse, multi-function Cyber Security Team to support our Global Security Program protecting our customers in the US & Japan. The Aflac NI Security Team has taken ownership of key components of the security program and are integrating with the Global Security Team to strengthen existing functions and build new capabilities.

We’re aiming to gather one of Belfast’s most diverse line-ups of adaptable and talented people to focus on the penetration testing side of Cyber Security. We’re looking for individuals who can think on their feet, see the attack surface, replicate, innovate and push boundaries. The intention is for our teams to continually adapt and reinvent their skills and capabilities over time as technologies change and evolve. We provide the right challenges and opportunities to enable your success; you to bring your enthusiasm and the ability to learn quickly.

**What you’ll be doing**
- Developing comprehensive and accurate reports and presentations for internal stakeholders including technical and executive audiences.
- Taking personal responsibility for understanding new designs, systems, and technology, with a particular emphasis on knowledge of Aflac’s external points of presence and the risks associated with them.
- Researching emerging technologies and attack vectors and developing scripts, tools, or methodologies to enhance Aflac’s red teaming processes.
- Creating, maintaining and configuring tooling and testing platforms.
- Ensuring that all internal policies and security procedures are adhered to
- Leading a team of penetration testers on specific engagements when necessary

**Skills & Experience**

- Knowledge and experience of evasion strategies for multiple security technologies (IDS, IPS, WAF, AV, etc.)
- Ability to maintain own tools and testing infrastructure for assessing a range of environments.
