Senior Cyber Security Engineer - Red Team

Due to customer demand and increasing maturity within our platform we have an exciting and challenging opportunity for an experienced cyber professional within the offensive security sector - with expertise in conducting red team engagements - to join our Product team as Senior Cyber Security Engineer - Red Team.

If successful you will join our Cyber team working closely with our Cyber Team Leads as we embark on this exciting new phase of product development within our market leading cyber resilience platform.

This isn’t an ordinary red team role - we know everyone claims this and will tell you their role is super unique…but this one really is.

You are constantly researching, learning, totally geeking out on all things offensive security related, from red teaming, to the latest AI driven attacks, and then taking that knowledge and creating labs and ranges.

You will be a key player in our Red Team Content team, shaping and influencing the roll out of our offensive security and AI pen test content roadmap, simulating attack paths and helping train our users to counter the latest threats.

You will be educating the world of offensive security professionals on how to make sure they are secure in what they do. Now that is a pretty cool legacy to leave behind.

Your mission (if you choose to accept it) is to evolve and disrupt within the Red Team space by creating emulated environments within our platform that will simulate both hacking and defending in an engaging and intuitive way for our community.

You will design, build and deliver practical and theory content to gamify offensive security and make it engaging and fun for the end user. You’ll shake up traditional training and teach complex concepts in an innovative way.

If you have a passion for cyber security, are experienced in the area of offensive security, and want to disrupt how employees build their resilience against the latest threats we will appreciate your input and give you the space to innovate within our market leading platform, Immersive One.

Your main responsibilities (we’re scaling fast, so these may change as we grow):

• Utilising knowledge of pen test and red teaming engagements and techniques to plan, write and improve offensive security labs, challenges and online learning content on the Immersive One platform.
• Produce multi-format content utilising various teaching methods; practical exercises, questions & gamification
• Test Red Team labs and ranges to ensure they function as expected
• Research vulnerabilities, tools and offensive tactics and compile this research to deliver practical and theory labs to users
• Compile technical research into understandable concise content for both technical and non-technical audience
• Work with the wider Product team on new projects and product innovations and how best to deploy them

Sounds good? We’d love to hear from you if you have proven experience in the following areas:

• A number of years of experience working in offensive security as a penetration tester or as a Offensive Security Consultant
• In-depth knowledge of the MITRE ATT&CK framework and how it is used to help enterprises deal with threats to their organisation.
• Have a strong technical understanding of networking, computing and cyber security concepts
• Have the ability to use examples and analogies to simplify complex subjects - your content will train real world users to identify and combat the latest threats so you need to be able to inhabit the mindset of your target audience to create realistic simulations
• Familiarity with Linux, Docker and Python would be beneficial
• Attitude and approach is just as important as technical skills for this role - you will be someone who enjoys tackling complex problems and finding the solution. You’ll be a natural problem solver and ‘tinkerer’ who enjoys prototyping and iteration.
