Vulnerability Research Engineer – Reverse Engineering

Integration Innovation, Inc.; Washington (District of Columbia); Sur place; USD 115 000 - 181 000; Plein temps

Résumé du poste

Integration Innovation, Inc. seeks a Vulnerability Research Engineer to support the Naval Research Laboratory’s Tactical Electronic Warfare Division.

You will reverse engineer software and firmware, build automation, and instrumentation to turn analysis into actionable insights. Bachelor’s degree and 5+ years in reverse engineering required; strong C/C++ and Python, with experience using IDA Pro, Ghidra, and other debuggers.

Qualifications

• Reverse engineer compiled software and firmware to understand behavior, interfaces, and system-level implementation.
• Use static and dynamic analysis (disassembly, debugging, tracing, emulation) to map control flow, data structures, protocols, and algorithms.
• Develop and maintain custom tools/scripts (primarily Python and C/C++) to automate analysis, extract parameters, and validate hypotheses.
• Design and implement lightweight test & instrumentation software to control assets, collect telemetry, and support test and evaluation events.
• Document findings in clear technical reports, including diagrams, evidence, limitations, and recommended next steps.
• Collaborate with multi-disciplinary engineers (EW, RF/DSP, embedded, test) to translate reverse-engineering results into actionable engineering decisions.
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Physics, or related field.
• 5+ years of professional experience in reverse engineering, binary analysis, malware analysis, or low-level software/firmware analysis.
• Hands-on experience with disassemblers and debuggers (e.g., IDA Pro, Ghidra, Binary Ninja; WinDbg/gdb/lldb).
• Proficiency in C/C++ and Python; working knowledge of assembly (x86/x64, ARM, or similar).
• Experience with embedded systems and common interfaces (e.g., UART/JTAG/SWD; SPI/I2C) and interpreting logs/telemetry.
• Ability to communicate technical findings effectively in writing and in technical reviews.
