Role

As a member of the Security Research team, you will imagine weaknesses in multiple types of systems and then find, demonstrate/document, and exploit those weaknesses. You will be joining a team of mature and extremely competent Security Researchers to breakdown and fully understand how a host of different systems function. You will need to leverage extensive experience performing static and dynamic analysis and must be familiar with multiple classes of vulnerabilities. Additionally, you must be extremely comfortable communicating with team members, technical partners, and non-technical partners alike. The ideal candidate will be comfortable and confident operating at the early phases of a vulnerability research project and have the mettle to see the project through to multiple phases and iterations.

Responsibilities

• Perform vulnerability research and reverse engineering for customer tasks
• Perform static and dynamic analysis by applying research tools such as disassemblers, debuggers, and fuzzers
• Perform exploit development leveraging discovered vulnerabilities
• Communicate security research findings internally and, when and where appropriate provide mentorship for your fellow security researchers

Minimum Qualifications

• Must be able to obtain and maintain a TS/SCI security clearance (note, only US Citizens are eligible for security clearances)
• Bachelors degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical discipline. Degree requirement can be met with four years of hands on experience in a software engineer or similar full time position
• Experience with Ghidra, Binary Ninja, IDA or other reverse engineering/disassembler tools
• Experience working in Linux fundamentals (strong grasp of sockets, file descriptors, networking, iptables, file systems, kernel, etc.)
• Ability to read and write C and assembly languages as needed (ARM, MIPS, X86) with out oversight or supervision
• Strong programming fundamentals; particularly with networking, data structures, and data models
• Strong knowledge of reverse engineering and vulnerability research
• Documented ability to develop exploits for common vulnerability classes

Preferred Experience

• Currently possess a Top Secret security clearance
• OS and kernel reverse engineering
• Mitigation circumvention
• Understanding of fuzzers
• Strong understanding of dynamic analysis with gdb/gdbserver and similar tools
• Basic understanding of processor tool chains and how to set them up
• Understanding of emulation using Qemu for running binaries in a non-native environment
• Experience identifying 0-days and vulnerabilities

Position Overview:
We are seeking an experienced Program Manager to oversee and drive the successful delivery of Department of Defense (DoD) programs. The ideal candidate will have proven experience managing complex projects within the DoD ecosystem, a strong understanding of federal contracting environments, and exceptional leadership skills to ensure performance, compliance, and customer satisfaction.

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead the planning, execution, and delivery of DoD programs in alignment with contract requirements, scope, budget, and schedule.

• Serve as the primary point of contact for government customers, fostering strong relationships and ensuring mission success.

• Oversee cross-functional teams, including technical, operational, and administrative staff, to meet or exceed performance objectives.

• Monitor program performance metrics, identify risks, and develop mitigation strategies.

• Ensure compliance with all applicable DoD, federal acquisition, and security regulations.

• Develop, manage, and track budgets, schedules, and resource allocations.

• Prepare and present program reviews, status updates, and reports to both internal leadership and government stakeholders.

• Drive continuous improvement initiatives to enhance operational efficiency and service delivery.

Qualifications:

• Proven experience managing programs in the Department of Defense or federal contracting environment.

• Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. government security clearance (active clearance strongly preferred).

• Strong knowledge of DoD acquisition processes, contract management, and program execution requirements.

• Excellent leadership, communication, and interpersonal skills.

• Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.

• Proficiency in project management tools and methodologies (PMP certification a plus but not required).

Preferred Skills:

• Experience with cost-plus, firm-fixed-price, or other government contract types.

• Familiarity with Earned Value Management (EVM) principles.

• Background in leading geographically dispersed teams.

• Understanding of specific DoD domains, such as cyber, intelligence, engineering, or logistics.
