Birmingham, Birmingham, United Kingdom National Physical Laboratory Full time
About the Role

We are seeking a highly skilled Vulnerability Research Security Analyst to join our team at the UK Telecoms Lab (UKTL). As a trusted and independent national capability, we interact with standards bodies, academia, and industry partners to secure our telecommunications networks.

This role will be part of a small team tackling some of the most interesting cyber problems with a meaningful and tangible impact on national security. You will be instrumental in standing up an industry-leading security facility, conducting in-depth vulnerability research, and developing bespoke security testing tools.

Key Responsibilities
  1. Conduct in-depth vulnerability research and testing of telecoms equipment
  2. Develop and maintain leading-edge security testing tools
  3. Collaborate with the team to identify and mitigate vulnerabilities
  4. Stay up-to-date with the latest security threats and technologies
Requirements

To be successful in this role, you will need:

  • An interest and aptitude for vulnerability research
  • Understanding of hardware and software development lifecycles and their impact on security practices
  • Applied knowledge of cryptographic algorithms/standards and data structures
  • Understanding of network protocols and software development
  • Familiarity with vulnerabilities such as memory corruption bugs and techniques attackers can use to bypass common security protections
  • Knowledge and experience of embedded systems and operating systems
  • Ability to self-learn any language, given appropriate resources to study and practice
  • Practical knowledge of common white-hat exploitation toolsets and techniques
What We Offer

We strive to offer a great work-life balance and flexible working options. Successful applicants must be able to commute to the UKTL offices in Birmingham at least twice a week. We actively recruit citizens of all backgrounds, but the nature of our work in this specific area means that nationality, residency, and security requirements are more tightly defined than others. To work in this role, you will need to have an SC clearance with no restrictions, or you must have the ability to obtain an SC clearance.
