  • Malware or firmware analysis and reverse engineering
  • Vulnerability analysis and/or exploitation development
  • Systems engineering and security models
  • Network architectures, protocol analysis or binary file format engineering
  • Processor architectures (x86-64 and ARM), operating systems and/or firmware internals.


You will have likely used some of the below technologies:

  • IDA Pro or Ghidra for reverse engineering
  • Gdb, binary exploitation and code injection for debugging
  • Python, C or bash for programming, prototyping or tool-making
  • Wireshark for protocol analysis or AFL for fuzzing.


Built over a 60-year heritage, Roke offers specialist knowledge in sensors, communications, cyber, and AI and ML. We change the way organisations think and act through dynamic insights from the analysis of multiple layers of data. We take care of the innovative, technical stuff that keeps everyone safe that’s our mission, passion, and motivation.

Joining a team united by purpose and ambition, you’ll be at the heart of an exciting growth journey: having doubled in size over the last 4 years, we intend to double our headcount by 2027. At Roke, every individual counts. We push technical boundaries, together. We re-invest in product innovation, and we empower our people to make a difference.

Where you’ll work
You’ll find our Manchester site located in the heart of the city; Europe’s fastest growing tech hub. You’ll become a key part of Roke’s growing local tech community as we support the Government levelling up agenda. There is easy, local access to our client community with great transport links and nearby local parking.

Why you should join us...

  • Private medical insurance: Includes cover for existing conditions
