  • Extensive experience with manual attack and penetration testing, including web applications, networks, and cloud environments.
  • Proficiency in scripting languages (e.g., Python, Bash, PowerShell) for automation of security tasks.
  • Knowledge of Windows, Linux, Unix, and other major operating systems.
  • Ideally, you’d also have

  • Certifications such as CCSP, CSSLP, OSCP, OSWP, GPEN, GWAPT, OSCE, OSEE, GXPN, CISSP, CISM, etc.
  • Contributions to the security community, including research, public CVE disclosures, bug bounty acknowledgments, and open-source project involvement.
  • Strong analytical skills with the ability to interpret complex information and communicate it effectively.
  • Active interest in staying updated on the latest cybersecurity threats and trends, promoting continual learning and adaptation.
