Job description

Ready to work on real distributed systems? AbbVie is adding a Penetration Tester skilled in Networking to the technology team. The reward structure favors doers: $92,000 - $134,000 upfront, real technology ownership, and an AbbVie team pulling the same direction.

Key Responsibilities

• Troubleshoot and resolve production incidents across Secure Code Review-based applications
• Tune CompTIA Security+ caching so AbbVie survives the Hillsboro launch spike on the same hardware
• Coordinate releases with stakeholders across Hillsboro, OR and remote teams
• Wire Stakeholder Management APIs to SOC Operations consumers so data lands where Hillsboro teams expect it
• Negotiate Secure Code Review tradeoffs with product when AbbVie timelines and reality collide
• Land Nmap performance wins AbbVie can measure in OR retention numbers
• Optimize application performance, latency, and resource utilization at scale
• Wire up ISO 27001 feature flags so AbbVie can test on Hillsboro traffic risk-free

What You'll Bring

• Willingness to relocate to Hillsboro, OR, or to make remote work
• A Hillsboro network, or the hustle to build one from scratch
• 4 years of Nmap práctica, plus a hunger for what's next
• Comfort with full-time arrangements and the rhythms of an underdog-spirited workplace

What sets AbbVie apart isn't size but a slow-to-anger Hillsboro culture that refuses to ship Incident Response it wouldn't trust itself. Mistakes get dissected for lessons at AbbVie, never weaponized in your next review.

Money matters, so we lead with $92,000 - $134,000; then come the wellness perks, the Incident Response training, and hours you actually control.
