About Us

We’re a leading software company creating cutting-edge solutions for Managed Services Providers (MSPs).

As we expand, we’re seeking a highly motivated Pentest Operations Engineer to help ensure our automated penetration tests continue to run reliably and efficiently at scale.

You’ll work closely with our Development, DevSecOps, and Penetration Testing teams to ensure that automated penetration tests initiated through vPenTest are consistently executed as expected — even across complex infrastructure and edge cases.

This is a hands-on, backend-focused role ideal for someone who is naturally curious, highly analytical, and thrives on reverse engineering and problem-solving.

• Monitor internal tools, logs, and metrics to detect and respond to test-related failures or abnormalities.
• Troubleshoot complex issues spanning infrastructure, network communication, test orchestration, and backend services.
• Work with developers to log issues, assist in debugging, and verify fixes related to the pentest execution pipeline.
• Collaborate with DevSecOps to troubleshoot and investigate issues related to the automated pentest framework.
• Communicate with the engineering team to align system behavior with testing methodologies and expected outcomes.
• Create and maintain internal documentation for issue patterns, resolutions, and troubleshooting workflows.
  
  

Required Skills & Experience

• Strong foundation in infrastructure, networking, and cybersecurity concepts.
• Proficiency in Linux environments and experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP).
• Familiarity with containerization (Docker, Kubernetes) and backend service troubleshooting.
• Ability to read and debug code (Ruby on Rails preferred, Python also valuable).
• Excellent analytical thinking and a strong aptitude for reverse engineering complex issues.
• Effective written and verbal communication skills.
• Prior experience in a backend operations, network or systems engineering is a plus.
  
  

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience working with penetration testing tools, automation, or security orchestration.
• Relevant certifications like OSCP, CEH, or CompTIA Security+.
• Exposure to SaaS products.
