Role Overview:

We are seeking a highly skilled and passionate Penetration Tester with hands-on experience across multiple domains including Web, Network, Mobile, Cloud, Active Directory, and Red Teaming.

  • Conduct Application Security Assessments, including SAST (Static Application Security Testing), DAST (Dynamic Application Security Testing), and SCA (Software Composition Analysis).
  • Execute Mobile Application Penetration Testing (Android/iOS) – good to have.
  • Perform Cloud Security Assessments on AWS and Azure environments, including misconfiguration and IAM exploitation testing.
  • Conduct Active Directory (AD) Penetration Tests and simulate Red Team Exercises focusing on internal attack chains and lateral movement.
  • Perform Network & Infrastructure Penetration Tests across Windows, Linux, and network protocol stacks.
  • Test and audit Firewalls, Routers, Switches, Load Balancers, and other networking components for configuration flaws and exploitable weaknesses.
  • Execute Citrix Penetration Tests and identify remote access risks (good to have).
  • Collaborate with development and DevSecOps teams to integrate security testing into Agile and CI/CD pipelines.
  • Prepare detailed technical and executive-level reports, including risk ratings and remediation advice.
  • Communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Required Knowledge:

  • Deep understanding of OWASP Top 10, MITRE ATT&CK, PTES, and NIST frameworks.
  • Familiarity with tools such as Burp Suite, Nmap, Nessus, Metasploit, BloodHound, CrackMapExec, Cobalt Strike (or equivalents), AWS Inspector, Azure Security Center, etc.
  • Proficient in scripting (Python, Bash, PowerShell, or Go).

Certifications (Preferred but Not Mandatory):

  • OSCP, CPSA, CRT, CRTP, CEH, OSEP, OSWE, AZ-500, AWS Security Specialty

(Practical hands-on experience is valued more than certifications.)

Soft Skills:

  • Strong communication and report-writing skills.
  • Ability to explain complex vulnerabilities in simple terms.
  • Team collaboration, adaptability, and proactive problem-solving mindset.

Why Join Us:

  • Work on cutting-edge Red Team and Offensive Security projects.
  • Opportunity to explore AI-driven and cloud-native attack surfaces.
  • Collaborative team culture that values learning, innovation, and ethical hacking excellence.
