We're supporting a major global tech client in scaling their elite application security team.

They're hiring two Penetration Testers with deep Android mobile expertise to uncover security flaws, reverse engineer complex APKs, and assess high-impact risks across mobile ecosystems.

  • Work alongside automation tools while delivering deep, human-led security insight

Must-Have:

  • Proven hands-on experience in Android penetration testing
  • Strong background in reverse engineering APKs and analysing obfuscated code
  • A security-first mindset with the ability to think like a sophisticated attacker

Nice to Have:

  • Experience working in large security consultancies or antivirus environments
  • Exposure to large-scale mobile platforms, app stores, or critical systems vetting

Details:

  • Day Rate: £500–£525/day (flexible for strong profiles)
  • IR35: Outside
  • Contract Length: 6 months+ (likely extension)
  • Location: Hybrid (UK only)
  • Interview Process: Single-stage

Please apply with a copy of your CV and SR2 will contact potential applicants regarding next steps.
